Who is the baddest ass of them all? You can listen to them in the presence of others and say, ''damn straight, I am cool. I'm cool and special''. An artist you know will never go out of style. It'll always be ''cool'' to like these guys.
I'd say the Velvet Underground. There's something badass about the early Rolling Stones, too, but they fucked that up. Dylan is eternally cool, Leonard Cohen, Nick Drake, guys like that. But above all, it's the MOTHER of all artsy pretentious wankers, the VU.
Autechre ooze with coolness when it comes to IDM, though a bit too many people dislike them... Amon Tobin is just one cool cat, though.

Agreed completely. That is just LAME. Although Music is Rotted One Note rates VERRRY high on the coolness meter.
Miles Davis rates high, too. I can see my breath when I listen to Bitches Brew or Kind of Blue. That's how cool it is.

Snoop Dogg can't be cool, because people find him funny and laugh at him behind his back. Who would DARE laugh at Lou Reed?

Bob Dylan and John Lennon are VERY cool. :D LOVE John Lennon. :)
And no one will agree with me ever, but I think Trent Reznor and Tori Amos are cool, too. Maybe not by the same definition as you have, but I think they are. *love*

Tori Amos is definitely cool... Trent is just a whiny little boy, though. ;-) He's talented, but too melodramatic for his own good. There's got to be a certain degree of nonchalance. Lennon is definitely cool... McCartney is definitely not.

Tommy Guerrero is cool. A skateboard champ who turned to doing soulful funky Booker T inspired music? How fucking cool is that?
But Miles is cooler. Fucker could play one note that said everything other musicians couldn't say in their entire careers. He had a croaky fucked up voice and a bad attitude. Cool.

Bob Bert was the original drummer. He played on Bad Moon Rising. But, I think they wanted a poppier more traditional drummer... Bob played from the gut.
I'll keep an eye out for that Seventeen cover. You know who really took my breath away lately, was Liv Tyler in LOTR II. She was even more stunning than in the first one.

Oh alright, I'm still missing that LP, I believe there was an even different drummer on Confusion is Sex, wasn't there? anyway, thanks for the info.
darius: yeah, Steve is quite cool too.
Liv Tyler is very good looking, more so in LOTR II like you said, although I never thought she was a real bombshell or anything. Although she looked great in Empire Records.

McCartney is a badass!
He blows Lennon out of the water.
Everyone knows McCartney was the musical genius of the beatles. Lennon was the lyrical genius. But the music is more important.
McCartney all the way.
Oh, and BoC are cool. They are just quiet and mysterious... not giving a fuck... just doing their own thing.

Don't get your knickers in a knot! This isn't a question of musical talent or anything... I agree, Paul is more of a ''musician'' than John. But John is ''cooler''! Paul is not cool. When he was a Beatle, he was pretty cool, but his subsequent work has killed his coolness... the Rolling Stone effect! But yeah, when he was in his prime, nobody could write a better melody.
John could still kick his ass anyway, musically or physically. Shazam!
