Best Artists and Bands of the 21th Century

MARS owns the 21st century, having released their second album 'A Beautiful Lie' containing hits such as 'The Kill' and their third album 'This Is War' with hits such as 'Kings And Queens' and 'Closer To The Edge'. They've more than proven why they are the best.

No way is that number 1. Most people don't know who they even are. There songs haven't been super hits like other people

THeir second album 'a beautiful lie' consists of rock hits.. Song like the story, the kill, the fantasy, attack, a beautiful lie, was it a dream, r-evolve. And other songs as well like a brand new name, and hurricane.
I'm not suprised their voted the best rock band

These guys have brought new genre to world that is Linkin Park. This is the only band which can give you any taste of music. If anyone is fan of music then he should know Linkin Park "RESPECT Linkin Park" if you are music addicted

This is the best band man. Amazing voice chester and great rap by mike. They are many rocking songs like numb, in the end, new divide, what I've done, faint etc. This band deserves the first place. Those who dint vote this band are not humans at all, they don't have taste.

I've listened to Linkin Park and a lot of their music sounds very original. Plus they stand out more than other bands. Although I like other bands, this band has to be the top on my list!

LINKIN PARK IS BEST.NO ONE BEAT LINKIN PARK.

What Eminem at 10 :O Can't be like this man he is the star of this world the only man who can make any sucking song to become one of the best in world come on fellows vote EMINEM.

He has 3 classic hip-hop albums and they were all in a row. Other than that trainwreck encore he has nothing but amazing work. Stan is just amazing to. One of the 5 best rappers of all time

That early stuff was all amazing. Maybe encore and the re-up and that's it. He carried a crew of wack rappers by himself in D12 to actually make there first album good. The only other rapper in D12 with skill was probably proof that's it. - Chris-1

I love Eminem!

What is this? Green Day is an awesome band and one of the best artist in the 21st century. No one compares to them, they just rock. Their songs are so meaningful and full with emotion. They just rocked the 90's and the 00's. Their lyrics, song, music are so good. Albums like American Idiot, Dookie,21st century Breakdown are the one of the best rock album in the present era!

Green Day are the best band ever end of. By the way, where are queens of the stone age? The strokes? Biffy Clyro? Weezer? On this list? Also, a7x should be higher up. Syn is an amazing guitarist. YES Green Day!

Who Can compare green day with other bands they are far better than any other bands of 2000's or even the 90's as well. Both their original as well as live albums are BOOMBASTIC!

Just the best

Michael Jackson is recognized as the most successful entertainer of all time by Guinness World Records. His contributions to music, dance, and fashion, along with his publicized personal life, made him a global figure in popular culture for over four decades. I love you Michael!

I don't understand why Michael Jackson is on this list.

I love MJs music and THE ROLLING STONES the very most and QUEEN would come close after for me when it comes to favourites and I listen to Bruce Springsteen and some others too even listening to little heavy metal music and to Eminem I thought about it a lot and decided to give his music a chance when I listened to his album the Eminem show I thought it was great I would think Eminem would been the biggest music artist of the 2000s I do not say he's better than MJ, THE ROLLING STONES and QUEEN I think the same with ELVIS PRESLEY AND LED ZEPPELIN I would have placed Eminem on number 6 of greatest music artists of all time if I begin to like his music even more I did not like the song just loose it I can forgive Eminem and I do not intend to judge him because of talk about him sold his soul to illuminati I have listened to some music and I haven't felt brainwashed I have bought many
Albums even over 10 of MJs albums and 2 of his concert dvds and the rehearsals dvd named Michael ...more

She is not single day famous or best She is best in 80's, best in 90's, best in 2000's and continues... Chithra is the best in century in the real meaning... - bradman

She started in her career with best performance, still its continue... - clinten

The first band to ever sell out the new wembley stadium? IMO the best band since the beatles!

Really good bassist, and most of these bands here have no measurable talents except Avenged Sevenfold and bon jovi

I'm sorry why is Muse 6th on the list?!?! They are the best band over all on this list. And they deserve more respect.

Muse deserve the top spot on this list.

What's amazing is how much this band has not changed, look at guns n roses, as well as many other bands and you'll see, if they are still releasing albums, then they have changed a lot. Metallica has not changed all too much.

Metallica has been the best from the start of its career. I never knew a band names 30 Seconds to Mars before Toptens. Slipknot should also be in the list.
- Slashhead

Currently the best and the most popular band on the face of planet earth.

Coldplay is simply awesome

Coldplay simply is one of the best bands of all time...they easily have 15 songs I adore. No other artist has that for me

Not only the best band on this planet b4t the best artist!

"Brian... top marks for not trying! "
They deserve top 3 for the accents alone! haha - Uzzy101

This is the band that seem to have won more Brit Awards than anyone the the 21st century so far at 5 - Skinner

If you want raw talent stick with bands like Arctic Monkeys, Muse and Kasabian.

They Rock too! Just saw them live. And YES! They should definitely be on this list. - Scorpion
