Prompts

For all the following prompts, feel free to link any song by the artist you've chosen: a personal favorite, their most popular hit, an underrated gem... whatever you think gives us the best sense of the band:

DAY 1. Which artist would you most like to see come back to life/reunite for a new album?

DAY 2. Which artist would you love to see come back to life/reunite for one last concert/live event?

DAY 3. Which artist do you think died/disbanded before they achieved their full potential?

DAY 4. Which artist do you think went out on top, at the absolute height of their popularity?

DAY 5. Which artist are you actually kind of glad isn't making music or performing anymore?

DAY 6. Which artist deserves a posthumous Grammy or other major music award?

DAY 7. Which artist do you think is overrated because of their untimely death/disbanding?

DAY 8. DOUBLE UP: Which dead/disbanded artist would you bring back for a one-time collaboration... and which current artist would they collaborate with?
