Radiohead - My wife will kill me for this, but Radiohead have surpassed Bowie. There was no doubt about it once In Rainbows dropped.

Nirvana vs Stevie was by far the hardest choice I've had to make so far. I love a ton of material by both artists, both are geniuses of music, but my sensibilities still lead towards guitar-based rock. They are developing though.
Great final 8.
Though I'm a tad surprised either U2 or Madonna tied Hendrix.
I'm also surprised Radiohead beat the Stones. I would have expected that from an all-AM vote, but not with the non-AM votes.

Very happy to see Stevie Wonder and David Bowie just nose through to the Final 4. I'm also happy that Prince was able to avoid a complete blitzkrieg as I was expecting.
Love to see everyone liked my idea
