Although I'd like to post my own list up here, I've got to say that LedZepStu and Big3 have mostly summed it up for me (although I disagree with 'Metallica' and Ian Brown as being amongst the very best).

Also, I'd have to add into the mix, representing the UK:
Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys
Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand

The first because, however over-hyped it may be at the moment, he's already produced some brilliant lines ('dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984' still makes me smile, however many times it blares out). The second mainly because of the "I'm gonna make somebody love me and somebody is you, ooh, lucky, lucky, you're so lucky", which is just great, however much I dislike most of the accompanying music...
