What? You mean, you don't have the "Perv's Choice Samsung Z-2017E semen-proof 29 inch monitor"??? :D

Well since I'm a girl, I can't really drop the moneyshot on my computer screen, haha.

Does it have to be just singers? For me, the biggest loss of the last few years was Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson. At the time he died, he was really cutting lose with some great stuff and there was every indication that he had a lot more in the hopper. Plus the world was just a better place knowing Sleazy was there, somewhere, doing something deviant.

If it's just singers, I'd probably go with Buddy Holly - he was really cut down in his prime and there is just no telling where he might have gone next. I think, like the Beatles and Brian Wilson, his songs probably would have grown more complex in their pop artistry. It would've been interesting to see where Richie Valens would have gone also, come to think of it.

I'll probably go with Ian Curtis. He had already given a lot to the world in his all too brief career with Joy Division but I know he could have given so much more if he had decided to stick around. We might not have had New Order but Joy Division could have been even better and even more innovative than New Order throughout the 80's. Music today could have been a lot different.

Not really. It kind of annoys me when people do this, at least make an effort and give some sort of explanation for your choice.

I gotta go with Cobain.

I mean hot only do you have to account for all the stuff he never got to do, but had he never died, COurtney Hole wouldn't have gotten so much pub, and I wouldn't have ever had to hear that trash. That puts Kurt over the top right there.

That's a good way to look at it. I don't mind Hole but I'd just love to slap Courtney. If Cobain had stayed alive maybe Courtney would have faded from the spotlight along with the 90's instead of milking every cent out of her own career as well as Kurt's legacy. If only...
