So there's a thread for your favorite song. But for you people like me who can't pick just one favorite song, who are some of your favorite bands/musicians? For me, I'd say Foreigner, Led Zeppelin, Foster the People, Rush, and Primus, to name a few.
 
I just made a list for a something like this a couple of days ago on another forum, so here it is:

-Nirvana
-R.E.M.
-Foo Fighters
-Linkin Park
-Paramore
-Queen
-The Who
-Rush
-Soundgarden
-The Police
-Aerosmith
-Pearl Jam
-Alice in Chains
-Coldplay
-The Killers
-Bon Jovi
-Boston
-The Rolling Stones
-Michael Jackson
-System of a Down
-Weezer
-U2
-AC/DC
-Green Day
-The Beatles
-Foreigner
