If You Could Bring Back 10 Famous People That Died Before Their Time, Who Would They Be?

So, family aside, name the 10 famous people you'd want to bring back that died "before their time" (if there is such a thing) - who would they be?

My choices:

1 - Malcolm X
2 - MLK
3 - Bernie Mac
4 - Pac
5 - Bruce Lee
6 - Left Eye
7 - Aaliyah
8 - Robin Harris
9 - Chris Farley
10 - Donny Hathaway

It's very hard for me to sit through the muppet show in Disney MGM studios.
Especially when they do a Jim Henson tribute at the end complete with Rainbow connection. sad

I'd leave 1, 2, 3, 5, and 9 and add John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, John Candy, Gilda Radner and Phil Hartman.
