Question: Which of today's modern artists do you think John Lennon would appreciate?

Yoko Ono has said in interviews that she really likes Courtney Love/Hole, Bjork, and the B-52s. So I'm sure that would influence John. Also, Sean was a fan of Nirvana back in the day and Julian likes U2. I think John might also like Sonic Youth, the Boredoms, and Radiohead, for being experimental, and perhaps Kathleen Hanna because she publicly pretty much worships Yoko Ono, and maybe John's feminist leanings would appreciate Hanna's being the poster girl for riot grrrl. He might also appreciate Ani Difranco's spitfire, take-no-prisoners feminist lyrics (can you tell yet I'm a child of the '90s?) His avant garde anti-art artsy side may appreciate Lydia Lunch and Diamanda Galas. I would expect him to like punk in general, but it was having its hey-day with the likes of Patti Smith before he died and I haven't heard of him being very impressed. When this question was posed in a magazine to other famous musicians, Sinead O'Connor suggested he'd like the gritty rawness of rap. In terms of more recent music, Cibo Matto (and not just because Sean did an album with them), Pink, and Lady Gaga. that's what instantly comes to mind... I'm gonna go look at what other ppl wrote.
