Terry Pratchett without a doubt, provided he was restored to full health.

Yes...
I'd like a few authors who died before their time. Douglas Adams, Jane Austen, all of the Brontë sisters.

Rik Mayall_I'll never get over that, I cried.

Taylor Hawkins-so unexpected and sad, lots of unanswered questions there.

Terry Pratchett is the one I'd bring back.

I'm answering before reading the thread so it doesn't sway me.

I'd be torn between:
David Bowie and
Rick Mayal

...... i'd chose Bowie.

Michael Dwyer - he was the film critic for the Irish Times. I never saw a bad film while he was alive. His reviews were brilliant and I knew if he liked something it was going to be good. He reviewed lots of non main stream stuff as well so I saw some gems thanks to him. He’s dead over 10 years and I still miss him.

Avici. Wonderful voice.

An awesome DJ who died far too young, but he didn't sing on any of his tracks. Maybe you're thinking of the voice of ? (He is definitely still alive) Smile
