    This will be by far the least "cool" answer in this thread, but I couldn't care less: Huey Lewis and the News.... because I feel 17 years old whenever I hear one of their classic tunes. First saw them live in 1984... they were amazing. I've been a loyal fan ever since.

    2nd would be the J. Geils Band for similar reasons.

    I don't have a favorite anything, but here's a list of ones from which I have many songs in my MP3 player.

    Bob Marley & the Wailers because Bob gets it. He's laid back, smart & political - like me
    Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers because they're badass and lived in FL.
    Red Hot Chili Peppers because many of their songs speak to how I kinda see my life.
    Led Zeppelin because a guitar can be as exquisite as a voice.

    Journey

    Because I love Steve Perry's soaring voice and Neil Schon's guitar mastery and the way Dean Castronovo beats the living ***t out of his drums.

    Van Halen with Sammy Hagar because that was when the band peaked in lyrics and musicianship

    Def Leppard cause 83-90 were my Wonderyears, the soundtrack of my life.

    The Beatles!!!!

    I found them when I was 13 and fell hard core. 17 years later I love them as much as I did day one. I have a tattoo of their logo, getting a second one next weekend and one of my sons middle name is Lennon. I think they call that obsession:bigsmile:

    To me they just have the best music I have heard and John is just Amazing to me. :heart:

    Iron Maiden. Awesome music. Interesting lyrics. Still going strong after over 30 years. And great for running.

    Top 5:

    Disturbed
    Theory Of A Deadman
    Demon Hunter
    Metallica
    Three Days Grace

    They all have great beats and messages (for the most part, lol)...keep me really pumped and moving! Besides...the man I'm dating is a 6'3" version of David Draiman (Disturbed)....and so drool worthy, lol.

    Earthsuit and then Mute Math. (Not that one is better than the other, but Paul Meany was the genius behind both) because each song takes me to a different place in my head. Amazing!
