Sting is pretentious, but thats a very stupid reason. For one, don't diss lutes, lutes are awesome.

Anywho. Some of my picks for most pretentious musicians.

Morrissey - I'm sorry, but anyone who makes an album called "Meat is Murder" is automatically pretentious.
Bono - I'm a U2 fan, but I'm not going to deny the epic pretentiousness of this man.
Fiona Apple - C'mon. Have we forgotten her already?
Rick Wakeman - I still think he's badass. But when you do something like "King Arthur on Ice"...
Nicky Wire - I'd hate on anyone who has the nerve to call Bjork a talentless twat and wish AIDS upon Michael Stipe, but when its a guy who has absolutely no talent in any form, then theres no reason for him to act like some big shot.
Prince - Do I really have to explain this one?
Michael Angelo Batio - This guy really is a c*nt, I know because I have a friend from Norway who is a guitar player, he made some Youtube video poking fun of Batio and Batio had a big rant about it on his forum, and he even started an account on my friends forum to antagonize him, talking about how he has accomplished everything and my friend has acomplished nothing, about how good a guitar player he is, how much money he makes, just a bunch of bullsh*t. Seriously I'm not joking, its a true story. He bitched because some guy poked fun of him on Youtube, he even had the video removed for "plagiarism" of his music. I always hated the guys music but I didn't know he was such a prick too.
Sting - I respect the mans causes, hes just smug about it. Still love The Police though.
Liam and Noel Gallagher - If you really think you're the best band in the world, I think you'd have to be a little more than just arrogant. Especially when all you do is copy The Beatles and water it down for mainstream radio.
Marilyn Manson - Because he really thinks he is doing something special.
*Enter Indie band here* - Cough.

Prince is automatically excused. Sign of the Times is the greatest pop album from the 80's and that INCLUDES Michael Jackson. In fact it pisses on that album from a great height.
