Yow that's a hard one. It has to be The Beatles though.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 5:41 pm

XD
That's why I did it. Of course, I might as well just put them in the Hall of Fame and get it over with.

I'll put the number of videos up tomorrow. It's gonna take a while to list them. :roflol:

Sat Mar 24, 2007 5:41 pm

Wow. I'm actually looking forward to seeing the results.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 5:53 pm

I cannot vote since I cannot choose. May the best choice win! Good luck to both!

Sat Mar 24, 2007 5:55 pm

The Beatles.

As much as I love Cash, I think the Beatles did way more for (and to) music then he did.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 6:48 pm

Johnny Cash won against Justin Timberlake! The results:

Johnny Cash: 73%
TLC: 26%


Huzzah! Beatles ftw.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 6:49 pm

Finally, someone I can vote against Cash and not be looked down upon for. :P

LADY MADONNA, CHILDREN AT YOUR FEET. WONDER HOW YOU MANAGED TO MAKE ENDS MEET.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 6:54 pm

Matterbug, I think that is one of my favorite tunes by the Beatles.

Going for the obvious....The Beatles

Sat Mar 24, 2007 8:15 pm

Have to go for Cash, was never a big fan of the Beatles, but Cash has to lose may as well be someone good.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 8:39 pm

The Beatles FTW! Johnny Cash bores me.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 9:05 pm

The Beatles.
'Sgt. Pepper' beats 'Ring of Fire' anyday.

Sat Mar 24, 2007 10:07 pm

Beatles! Finally, someone I can vote for.

Sun Mar 25, 2007 12:02 am

Well, Cash fans, you'll lose this one. But you just have to Let It Be.

Oh, and fellow Beatlemaniacs? Don't diss our less... intelligent friends; remember, All You Need Is Love.

Mon Mar 26, 2007 8:14 pm

I can't stand the beatles for some reason.
