Do you know your favorite artist's favorite artist/song?

I'm not sure Freddie's favorite song, but his favorite singer was Aretha Franklin.

Brian May's favorite song is "Jealous Guy" by John Lennon...I think it's his fave because of his messy divorce and what not...his favorite artists are the Beatles...

Update:

Hi Shred! 'Tis always good to see you to!

Update 2:

I'm good Mr. Tambourine Man, I'm actually in the process of emailing you right now : )

    Bob Dylan's favorite song is"Pirate Jenny" from The Three Penny Opera written by Kurt Weil; probably the Nina Simone version but Katy Buckley sings it too. Kurt Weil also wrote "Mack The Knife".

    Jim Reeves once said in a concert that his favorite singer was Lefty Frizzell. He also said that one of the last songs he recorded, "I Can't Stop Loving You," was one of the best songs he'd ever heard.

    In rock, I remember a "Behind the Music" on the year 1977 that showed Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads saying his favorite Elvis Presley song was "(Marie's the Name) His Latest Flame," which is also my favorite Elvis hit.
