Default If you could bring a dead rock star back to life

If you could bring a dead rock star back to life for one gig, who would it be?

John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis, Kurt Cobain, Buddy Holly, Freddie Mercury? Or someone else?

This Day in Music are carrying out a world-wide survey to see which dead rock stars people would want to see again - for one night only!

Who would you pick? You can see a full list and vote on

Freddie Mercury.

Not just because of the fact he was possibly one of the greatest singers ever, but also the fact he's the greatest showman ever.

I wouldnt bring any of the greats back. They will allways be Legends as we didnt get to see them grow old and loose there touch, then start to turn out sub standard music.

I take it youd bring them back in their prime?

As at least 2 people listed died of AIDS so theyd need to be brought back alive and made a good few years younger
