nope..sorry. ha.

these are subject to change, but for now this is my opinion

best: (tie) geoff rickly of thursday and anthony green (saosin and circa survive). these are based on poeticness and their overall flow and sound.

worst: tom delonge and mark hoppus (blink 182)

I agree with you on that. I'd thrown in Nick Drake and Elliott smith too.

Bump.

3 pages? Is that it? I love discussing lyrics/people who have those ways with words.

Well..

Lennon/Mccartney, Morrissey, Ian Curtis, Alex Turner, Bob Dylan, Lou Reed, Kurt Cobain.

And I can't believe no one has mentioned this guy - Nick Cave.
I'm not really a fan of his, and haven't heard much of his stuff. (Just the 1 album)
But the man seems like an absolute brilliant story teller.

When it comes to story tellers, Chris Clavin makes me all ears. There aren't a lot of artists that can do that for me. I have always been fond of Cedric Bixler-Zavala and Beck's for their colourful imagery.

Simply because of American Pie, I'm going to say Don McLean. That song IS culture. I also really enjoy listening to Jim Morrison.

Worst? Kesha loooooool
