    Johnny Cash and Genghis Kahn

    Together? Wouldn't Kahn just kill Cash?

    For similar reasons, I'd say Alan Turing.

    33 posts in and no one mentions Jacko, his legacy will always be tainted by his weirdness though.

    For me its Freddie Mercury, all 4 original Queen members together again for one last tour.

    I would really like to meet Jesus to know what the real story is! :)

    There is a very good documentary on Netflix about Tesla, a person way ahead of his time.

    Jacko was a spent force by the time he died.

    Another Queen tour would be most cool though.:cool:

    I went to their last one in '86 & like most attending, I had no idea that it would be their last.

    Given the year that's in it.
    Would love to hear Luke Kelly singing "The Foggy Dew" live on a spring morning somewhere in Dublin.

    Vincent Van Gogh so he could see his legacy.

    Newton,Planck or Einstein. They were years and decades ahead of their time when science had nothing. Imagine what they could come up with with access to a modern computer and instant access to every database ever.
