Let's take a trip down music's memory lane, back to a time when there was no such thing as Auto-Tune or "Glee" or Ke$ha. We had our one-hit wonders (anyone heard from Haddaway lately?) and our boy bands that produced a few albums then disappeared (B2K ring a bell?).
Music is constantly changing, and while most musicians come and go, some legends never die. Well, figuratively speaking at least. With ghosts and ghouls roaming the streets on Halloween, maybe some of these musicians can do the unthinkable and rise from the grave. Nothing says ultimate comeback like resurrection - the Avenue can dream, right?
John Lennon
Thanks to the musical genius of John Lennon, The Beatles were the first and last boy band to make music of any real merit. As a group, they haven't made new music in more than four decades, yet their posters still hang on the walls of young people who weren't even conceived when The Beatles were at their prime. We're not so sure the Backstreet Boys and N*SYNC will have that kind of longevity.
Michael Jackson
The death of the moon-walking, crotch-grabbing, high-pitch singing, plastic-surgery-obsessing King of Pop devastated the world less than two years ago. Thanks to the "Thriller" music video, we already know what MJ would look like if he rose from the grave, and he can just pick up where he left off with his last world tour that never started. It would be a seamless transition back to life, and any objectors can beat it (just beat it!).
Tupac
Despite the somewhat popular belief, I regret to inform you that Tupac Shakur is dead. His resurrection might spark another epic East Coast-West Coast battle- Jay Z and Snoop Dogg better watch out - but many rap fans would agree the genre needs a little lyrical revival. While we're at it, let's bring back Notorious B.I.G., too.
Bob Marley
His legend may be synonymous with bongs and bowls, but it's not a smokescreen: Bob Marley produced some of the best songs reggae has to offer. His high times were his best times, and he lived like every day was 4/20. Whether you agree with his methods of getting in touch with his creative side or not, there is no denying that a Bob Marley and the Wailers reunion concert in Jamaica would be epic.
