I don’t want to die.
Why do you want me to die?
Yeah, but what’s the point in shooting an already dead Paris Hilton? Wait, nevermind.
Yeah, haven’t you heard the totally true conspiracy theory that an imposter decided to take her place? The actual Paris wouldn’t be up to this stuff. The actual Paris, in fact, gave away all of her money to charity!
Ummm…whatever floats you boat I suppose.
I’d rather listen to the music than faff around with the names.

I would say, that my top 10 are the bands that influenced me as a teen in the 80s… the more hippy trippy side of rock, which went well with my burgeoning Art studies and growing sense-of-self. I don’t seem to have liked 70s rock, as I went from the 60s vibe straight into the 80s feels.

I’m on a much different wavelength.
Bread: the inventors of “soft rock” (which to me is astounding - to invent a genre). I’d recommend their album “bread: retrospective”
Other than that (a band who invented a whole entire genre by themselves! (Not derivative)) I’m a 1 hit wonder type of person.
Edit: I thought a little more about this. My favorite Beatles album is “rubber soul”
One enormous band that was left out of all of your lists is the BeeGees!
Before their disco ascension, they’d been making hits for 20 years! The beegees were so overplayed, that radio stations would advertise themselves as a beegee free zone! The beegees thought about this and decided they no longer had a brand name, so they devoted themselves to writing songs for only other artists … and though you might hate them, you’ll certainly love these other songs written by them.
