Brian Eno - A pivotal member of Roxy Music during their glory days, through his solo work Eno has gone on to become the godfather of ambient electronica. Not to mention the fact that he produced classic albums like David Bowie’s avant-garde Berlin Trilogy (’Low’, ’Heroes’ and ’Lodger’), U2’s Joshua Tree, Coldplay’s Viva La Vida, The Talking Heads’ ‘Remain In Light’ and many more. It’s no wonder there’s an online campaign to get Eno knighted.

- Brian May should be added in there. And Freddie Mercury even though he's dead.

- Ray Davies should be knighted. He is already CBE but stands out above all of the people mentioned in this article as a consistently brilliant songwriter.

- all this worry about knighthoods!!Sir Paul Mcartney,Sir Elton John...............Come on! I am a Yank in Kentucky for all ****s sake! I KNOW who deserves the queens honor... people like Ray Davies (first because he NEVER EVER sold out of being ENGLISH) and what a ****in' talent,Eh?? Second would be Roger&David from Floyd,then Pete and Roger, then all the GREAT NEW STUFF like Blur

- AHAHAHA
morrissey

i think the queen is dead pissed on any chance of a knighthood

- I think Johnny Rotten should be knighted, he should accept it and do a scandal at the ceremony.
