Favorite Musicians by rank and genre

I've heard of the London Quireboys. Pretty cool stuff there.

That's it for me on that list!

How about.....
5 bands you will roll up your car window for, so no one will know what you're singing along to and you don't have to be embarrassed.
1. Depeche Mode
2. Foreigner
3. Def Leppard (we have all at least once sang into the steering wheel when "Love Bites" comes on) (at least I hope, or I'm going to have to change my screen name to save face)
4. The particularly cheesy songs from the Moody Blues (The Other Side of Life, I Know You're Out There Somewhere, ect.)
5. INXS
