I got to wondering with all the talk about Lady Gaga in the last couple of days, what are your favorite artists?
With such a diverse group on this message board, I'm curious to see if people's music tastes are just as diverse.

Some of my favorites are:
Lady Gaga
Paramore
Metallica
Disturbed
Sara Bareilles
Avril Lavigne

Looking forward to seeing responses.
