Not to be a cliche of myself, but whatever: Bowie. Absolutely.

I see them as two sides of the same coin as artists. If in some alternate reality they were able to seriously sit down and collaborate, the results would be frightening. In a good way. In the best way. Please! Bowie is a very talented conceptual artist but as a musician he could not hold the same stage as P. He is more of a stylist when it comes to his compositional skills. Prince is the most complicated popular musician of the last 50 years. | |

But I respect Prince as a multi talented musician. He's a very gifted musician. There arent many people out there who's as goood as him. I was just thinking. Is there any musician you can think of whose musical abilities are comparable to Prince's musical ability? not only is he super talented,but he is daring...he records and releases stuff that others couldnt even imagine & if they could they would consider it risky $$$y wise ...examples -batdance ,kiss (no bassline),when doves cry(no bassline)...If I was your girlfriend...Bambi...just to name a few ALL BRILLIANT!!! | |

One obscure word: Momus. Any takers? "You honor your reservations; you go to your meetings so we can clean the rooms; you're relatively quiet; and you drink more than the American Legion." --

i can see that. i think prince's music, at best, is more diverse and appealing...though i bet momus's knowledge of music would knock prince under the table. | |

The "Buddha of Suburbia" album was recorded by Bowie with the help of two other musicians, and it's one of his finest (and most underrated) albums. | |

I don't think much of it, though I love the song "Underground" - I think I may be the only Bowie fan I know who likes that song.  Love the video, too. | |

I don't know of anyone else who's proficient on guitar, bass, keys and drums. I know Paul Mcartney can play them all, but is he proficient?

The keyboardsolo is even more amazing than the guitarsolo on this one IMO (Shawn also played drums and bass etc) http://www.youtube.com/wa...I3QnZEL0F8
