Stones... Finger Eleven has some nice songs, but c'mon now, it's The Stones...

Procol Harum... I hate "Runaway Train", but I like alot of their other stuff, but "Whiter Shade Of Pale" and "Conquistador" are great songs...

Pharcyde... Never understood why Robbie Williams is such a big pop star in the UK...

Collective Soul... One can enjoy "Rokken with Dokken" on occasion, but overall, I gotta go with Collective Soul...

The Jam... great band over some country dude, easy choice...

Sade... If this wasn't already easy, "Soldier Of Love" put sade over the top...

Gary Numan...

The Connells... The Platters had a number of great 50's songs, but The Connells had great songs like "'75-'75" and "Stone Cold Yesterday"...

3. The Jam
11. Herb Alpert (I like Sade, but this matchup doesn’t put her in the best light)
7. Slade (I like Numan’s genre much more, but I’m voting for a band that was really influential over an artist who was just really influenced)

I like that one Finger Eleven song I heard when I was a teenager. Oh wait, they're up against the ROLLING STONES.

Opposite ends of the cool spectrum.
