Coolest People in Music

So I haven't been writing in a while but I'm getting back on the wagon and going to try to write every day.  Today, I was surfing the interweb and came across NME's Cool List from last year.  I decided that I was going to make my own cool list for musicians this year and feature the people I have not already done yet.  So I thought long and hard about my list and tried to create a list that suited my personality, music tastes, and kept true to who I think is and has been pretty cool in the music world so far this year.  Here is my top 25 and you can SUCK IT if you don't like it but I would also love to hear if you think others should be added....
