    7) Paul McCartney

    8) Black Sabbath, because he didn't make 4 terrible albums with them.

    9) I have no freaking clue.

    11) I like him for the novelty.

    12) We are the champions

    13) Foxy Shazam

    14) If I could hurt them? A tie between Justin Beiber and Lady Gaga. If just to meet them? Bruce Dickinson.
