Amazon suggests that I’d like the following musical artists:

  1. MIDIval PundtZ (I’m not responsible for the orthography)
  2. The Beatles
  3. Niyaz
  4. Sarah Cracknell
  5. Peter Gabriel (specifically, PG 1, Security, PG 2, and PG 3)
  6. Jorane
  7. Stellamara
  8. Artur Schanbel
  9. Hadra
  10. Daniel Barenboim

Last.fm has a somewhat different list:

  • Elton John
  • Bjork
  • Tenacious D
  • Roger Waters
  • Amy Winehouse
  • The Chemical Brothers
  • Gentle Giant
  • Franz Ferdinand
  • Bob Dylan
  • Beck
  • Portishead
  • Jethro Tull
  • Moloko
  • DJ Shadow
  • Faithless
  • The Cinematic Orchestra
  • Beastie Boys
  • Groove Armada
  • Van Der Graaf Generator

Seriously, where’d the Elton John come from?

It's a little before my time, but I'm told that Elton John used to rock, or at least regularly perform an action similar to rocking.
