Coolest rockstar of all time?

Don't know where you draw the line on "rockstar" but Leonard Cohen would definitely make the cut for me.
 
I just aint that cool.
Like Billy Joel, Jimmy Buffett, Springsteen, McCartney, The Who....Just wanted to give them a mention.

Some good ones so far. Being one of the few residents here who can remember the late '60s, I have to give mention to this guy.

Don't forget Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and Freddie Mercury.

Queen are one of my favourite bands ever, but Mercury was a wild extrovert, and (correct me if I'm wrong) not the kind of cool BluCo was looking for, which is the understated, effortless type.

Cash is a great pick. Just look at him. He's cool, without even trying.

I don't think any human being that ever lived look better in black and white.

Keep in mind that being flamboyant and eccentric was his stage persona, in person he was said to be shy and introverted. He still may qualify under Blue's guidelines based on that fact, or he may not, but I don't think you can discount offstage presence.

I couldn't agree with you more about Cash. He's close to being the epitome of cool, if not already.

... look at that condensation!​

Eh, went right over your heads, didn’t it? See, it's funny because "cool" is a saying that means "neat," but also means "cold," and "rockstar" means "successful musician" but it's also an energy drink. They're single words with multiple meanings. That is mathematically HILARIOUS! Since I still don't hear you laughing about "coolest rockstar", you must not understand humor in general. See, humor is based on subverting expectations, often through play-on words. According to this formula of humor, my "coolest rockstar" comment was literally the funniest thing ever said by anyone.

HOW ARE YOU NOT LAUGHING RIGHT NOW?! That was F***ING GOLD!

:D

Okay, I'm done now...
 
I never equated humour with maths before, Happy. I shall now.

By that token though, his off-screen persona was as far away from everyone else as possible. I don't know how cool it's possible to be on that front.

At the height of his fame, the singer would want nothing more than to sit in the kitchen while his mother cooked for him. "He wanted to be as normal as possible," Mrs Bulsara said. "Business was on one side and his family on the other. He would come home and say, ‘Mum are you making your special cheese biscuits?’ Whenever he was in the studio and working long hours, he would say, ‘Mum, make some more because all the boys are there,’ and I would say, ‘of course, why not.’"

Presence. Sitting in the kitchen with special cheese biscuits. ;)

I don't know about you, but having your mom make cheese biscuits for you seems pretty cool to me. :tongue:
