I was just wondering if people have musicians they relate to, or you feel inspired by. Mine would have to be Kate Bush, And Neil young, Kate bush because I've always wanted to be able to express myself in a lot of different ways, like she does, she dances and sings and writes her songs with storys of things she herself have experienced in someway. I've just always thought it was cool to be able to express yourself in not just one way but many., I also love her subjects of her songs, and the music it self! lol. Neil young because of the lyrics they have always really hit me.
Anyway who are the musicians that inspire you?

Tom Petty: The guy seems to have a certain honesty in his music. And it's very relaxing.
David Bryne (I think that's how you spell it): He made the Talking Heads the icon they are today.
Bono: Yes, the guy has a big ego. But, he also doesn't keep his faith under a lampshade. He may not be as diehard as some of those Christian rockers out there, but he is very outspoken.

Well, this is the only musician I really feel like I know enough about to say, or that hasn't disillusioned me with some scandal or further knowledge. And it feels super-fangirly to say, but....
Vic Mignogna.
This is one of the most famous and popular voice actors in our little niche, and he just so happens to be Christian. Not only that, but he's vocal about his faith, tells anyone who shows interest about how he came to know Christ. He's also absolutely the nicest person I've ever encountered - so humble and so wonderful to his fans, but also just to every single person he meets. He's a great witness to the gospel, and a wonderful inspiration.
As if that wasn't enough, he taught himself to play the piano by ear (beautifully), and has an amazing voice, both when he's recording for an anime character and when he's singing.
