Radiohead - My wife will kill me for this, but Radiohead have surpassed Bowie. There was no doubt about it once In Rainbows dropped.
The Beatles
Fave - Beatles
Fave not voted for - Bowie... Prince has hit higher highs but is more inconsistent.

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.

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.
