Yeah it also says Alex Turner is higher up than Jimi Hendrix, don't go by the NME on ANYTHING, they're rubbish.
So John Lennon is at Number One and a John Lennon parody is at Number Two. I'm a little perlexed as to why Alex Turner and Amy Winehouse are in there at all.
If I were Morrissey I would be offended to be on this list.
^ I'm with the anonymous guy above ^
Yeah...who is Alex Turner??? I'm sorry. I have to question 2,4,5, and 6. None of those people are ICONS. John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie, and Morrissey - absolutely. They paved the way for little shits like Liam Gallagher. As always the NME has it all wrong...
I think almost all haters, worshippers and the indifferent alike would still agree that Cobain is an icon.
The rest of the numbers you cited are certainly arguable.
Think amy wine house definitly deserves to be on the list of icons, she was a true genuis and role model ect, unfortunatly she was so gifted that she turned to the bottle ! R.I.P !
Liam gallager deserves to be on the list aswell , oasis are fantastic live in concert!
Amy winehouse certainly not. granted, she is talented, what exactly did she inspire? I certainly think that her and alex turner are premature. Especially undeserved in front of moz and just after bowie. Also, the gallagher bros I feel should be included together.
