Who is everyone's favorite singers or bands?

Mine are Leonard Cohen, Beth Orton, Beck, and Neko Case.
Of course, I have the guilty pleasure of a little Ace of Base, but my wife gives me serious heck about that.

Speaking of Robert Smith, They just released "The Glove" with his vocal. Previously they had another singer singing the songs because of legal issues. I had the original version and it rocked. This could be the sh*@.

Lately it's been the Foo Fighters.

(and I prefer JEFF BECK over "Beck." Check out Jeff Beck's "Wired" from 1976 -- one of the best instrumental albums *EVER*)
