If you could chose just one hero who would it be? Band/singer

Im a metalhead/punk fan so this choice might be against the grain,

Mine is neil finn simply the best singer songwriter iv ever heard

Well as uncool as it may seem...Paul McCartney.

As well as writing some of the best songs of the 20th century,he was the powerhouse of The Beatles from 66 on, and either wrote or produced many other hits for others. The Bonzo's Urban Spaceman was produced by him, and he wrote and produced Come and Get it for Bad finger.

He was no mean bassist either.

There's a lot more to Macca than the Frog Chorus and Mull of Kintyre.

Blimey, just one?! For me it would probably have to be The Modfather himself Paul Weller - such songwriting skills, so many different styles over the years and inspired so many. That all said I'd have to qualify it with anything he's done up to and including Stanley Road (with the odd exception since).

Know that Ms G will have a completely different choice to mine!!

Springsteen as a actual influence and being able to relate to what he writes can't wait to see him again on Sunday.

But also Dave Group because he just comes across as such a awesodown to earth guy in everything I've ever seen of him.

Did you mean Billy Joe Armstrong of Green Day....or Billy Joel?!

Two very different kettles of fish there....although a Green Day cover of Uptown Girl might be interesting!!

Ian Anderson also deserves a mention.

Prog Rock often gets a slagging but Tull were a class act. Unbelievable that they're not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
