    For me, probably:

    The Beatles
    Billy Joel
    Hayley Westenra
    Alanis Morissette

    There would probably be about another 6 other artists tied in 5th place, including people like Elton John and Heather Nova.

    ummm.....Madonna should be on there to, not because I especially like her but shes stayed relevent in the music industry for what....like 26 years.....that is why the Rolling Stones should be on here too.

    Missy Elliot too :p

    Right now, only U2 comes to mind. Too many others competing for the other 4 spots, I'll put them in later once I've had time to think about it.

    This is for top 5 consistent great production (as in, not including potential?), so...

    Dark Tranquillity
    Megadeth
    Helloween

    Erm, not sure on the rest. There are a bunch that I like everything from, but they aren't really epic like the above...

    Right now?

    Lordi
    Tempest
    Iron Maiden
    Saxon (pre-1995, obviously)
    David Bowie

    Keeps changing, obviously. On another day another bands would have made it and so forth.

    @ DR - Oasis! Good man. I didn't expect an American to list Oasis in their top 5.

    Absolutely. Gas Panic! and Supersonic are two of my all-time favorite songs. F*ckin' in the Bushes is a great workout song. ;)

    The Beatles - They made too many great songs to list. Possibly THE most influential rock band in history.

    Pink Floyd - Perfected space rock and pleased generations of stoners.

    George Strait - 20+ years and still going strong.

    Brian Eno - An innovative artist and producer.

    Led Zeppelin - A great catalogue of songs. Influenced countless bands that followed.

    Eric Clapton probably deserves to be on this list too. His body of work is incredible: Cream, Blind Faith, Derek & The Dominos not to mention his solo work.
