Ten is a difficult number
Agreed. Ten is difficult.
One is good. Like, my favorite musician is Bob Marley.
A million is good too, because I could probably name a whole bunch of musicians that I like. (If I count CDs, rush and the Cure come in at 8 each, while Van Halen, REM, the Rolling Stones, Mozart, KISS, and Luciano Pavarotti have five each. Embarrassingly, so does Pearl Jam.) But I also have many favorites whose CDs I've never bought, like Van Morrison, Louis Armstrong, Serge Gainsbourg, Andrea Bocelli, Lynnyrd Skynnyrd, some benedictine monks, a Peruvian flute band that I saw nightly during the week I spent in Lima, and a bunch of long-dead composers from places like Italy, Austria, and Russia.
