I'll keep Mozart around for another 30+ years.
Can I rid the world of Kenny G in return?

John Lennon. Such an incredibly intelligent man; I think he still had so much to offer.
I don't want to say who I'd replace him with, though. Senusret has a point about the karma!

Yep to both.
- I'm surprised Lennon wasn't one of the first to be mentioned. I'd also like to see what Kurt Cobain would have done musically in a post grunge era.

But then again, if you kept Holly/Lennon/Mozart/Cobain, they might have turned into...umm...Kenny G.
Seriously, John Lennon has some freaking CHEESY songs that rival anything Paul's ever done in sap factor, and he gets away with it because he's dead.
Same with John Belushi...I like to think he'd have turned into Bill Murray...but he might have turned into...Jim Belushi.
Marvin wrote some awesome music, to be sure, but he could have shot every creative wad he had, spent the last 40 years of his life doing standards (instead of Rod Stewart) and I'm pretty sure that that would be o.k. fine with everyone.

Yeah but that's not the point! I do believe that everything happens for a reason but this is fantasy, and in my fantasy The Beatles would have reunited in the 80s and made awesome music again. All of the former Beatles solo work sucked other than "my sweet lord" from Harrison but that's for another thread.
I was really thinking of a talent that was cut down way too early and the only one I could think of in recent times was Jay Reatard.

Yes, please. He should at least get to finish his own Requiem. And Kenny G needs a requiem.

Holly/Lennon/Cobain, maybe.
But I don't see how Mozart could have turned into anything crappy. The stuff he wrote when he was 12 was worth listening to, and he had practically linear growth in the magnificence of his work through the last 15 or so years of his life.
Mozart might well have retired if he got rich, the way Shakespeare did. But there's no way that he was capable of writing dreck. So I'm definitely going with Mozart on this. I would sacrifice the later years of pretty much anyone who's ever lived, except Bach, in order to get more years out of Mozart.

Brad Renfro. I thought he was a very talented actor with so much potential.
Let's knock off Justin Bieber, nice hair do, but his music sucks.
