Paul Simon, for making life, politics, and so much more into great songs:
Ev'ry day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines.
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
And ev'ry stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be,
Homeward bound,
I wish I was,
Homeward bound,
Home where my thought's escaping,
Home where my music's playing,
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me.

Marilyn Manson, for saying stuff that is beyond what your initial first hearing may lead you to believe he's saying:
Everybody's someone else's n#gger/I know you are so am I
I wasn't born with enough middle fingers/
I don't need to choose a side
I better, better, better, better not say this
better, better, better, better not tell
I hate the hater, I'd rape the raper
I am the idiot who will not be himself
f*#k it!

As I was looking through the posts, I thought "why has no one said Neil Peart?" then someone did, and I was happy and sad. I wanted to be the first, but did not want him unnoticed.

Neil Peart - Rush
Chris Cornell - Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Solo, AudioSlave
Sahaj Ticotin - Ra
Max Illidge - 40 Below Summer
Eddie Vedder - Everything No Code and earlier.

Maybe when you find out that I'm dead
You'll realize what you did to me"
