I'd say the best Classical musician is Tchaikovsky. The other two ov my favorite are Chopin and Dvorak.

Buahahahaha... Why Nightwish? xD Okey! Mozart Beethoven, Rieu and Nightwish? It's funny! Is it modern classical music, yes? If it is true... Where is Apocalyptica?!

Why is Emillie Autumn 'classical'? She has orchestral elements to her music, but nowhere near classical.

La gran variedad de musica y artistas con que cuenta la página web: Last.fm, es impresionante. Es una tentación musical, estar durante varias horas revisando el contenido de la página y creo que no terminaría durante un mes... Felicitaciones a la gran familia de Last.fm... Atte. Rafael Oropeza Rolas. Estado Miranda. Venezuela.

The high number of John Williams is because because there are 2 famous guys with that name (the film composer and then the classical guitarist).

To avoid the complications and controversy over the use of the label "classical," I suggest we tag all ancient, baroque, classical, romantic, neo-classical, and modern concert hall music as "fancy-pants music." [2]
