You're going to spend the rest of your life alone on a deserted island. No hope of rescue. Your only companion will be music. But life is cruel. You can have only the music of one artist. ONE musical artist. For the rest of your life.

Who's it gonna be?

The fine print:
- artist means singer, songwriter, band, composer. So if you pick Mozart, you get every performance of every Mozart composition. If you pick Grace Slick, you get everything by the Airplane and the Starship and her later career. If you pick Burt Bacarach, you get every song written by him whether performed by him or another.
- no video. You get the music but not the music videos or movies that the song was used in.
- no covers. If you pick Dylan, you don't get any Hendrix. Whoever pipes up that symphonies are "covering" the work of classical composers gets sent to the island with no music at all.
- one means one. Not "if I could also choose another one", or "I'd pick _____ or______", or "this is so hard, maybe _____ but maybe_____".
- no exceptions just for you. Don't be a snowflake.
- acceptable replies will be a name. Optionally, a reason.

Your flight is boarding. Choose!

NO YOU DON'T GET THE MUSICIAN HIM/HERSELF. Sheesh.
