This time, I just deferred to my iTunes library and voted based on each artist's presence therein. Nevermind that the only Prince recordings I have are from the Batman soundtrack....

Led Zeppelin - Even though I nominated The Cramps, the only reason I didn't nominate Zeppelin was they hardly needed my help to get in
Neil Young - not a fan of Journey, Neil Young is great
Public Enemy - One of the few rap groups I like, Smashing Pumpkins has never really done it for me
Alice Cooper - One of my favorites, ever since I was a kid when I watched Welcome To My Nightmare at midnight with stereo simulcast
Roxy Music - I used to love U2, can't really stand them anymore even their old stuff. Roxy Music I never used to like, but now like them a lot.
Boston - For their cheezy goodness
Prince - First few Prince albums were great, Zappa is hit and miss for me
John Coltrane - I like a few songs by Guns and Roses, but John Coltrane wins
Neil Young - not a fan of Journey, Neil Young is great
Public Enemy - One of the few rap groups I like, Smashing Pumpkins has never really done it for me
Alice Cooper - One of my favorites, ever since I was a kid when I watched Welcome To My Nightmare at midnight with stereo simulcast
Roxy Music - I used to love U2, can't really stand them anymore even their old stuff. Roxy Music I never used to like, but now like them a lot.
Boston - For their cheezy goodness
Prince - First few Prince albums were great, Zappa is hit and miss for me
John Coltrane - I like a few songs by Guns and Roses, but John Coltrane wins

If Neil Young loses to Journey, frogs will be falling from the sky. Also, never heard of John Coltrane? WTF?
