Song of Yourself: Staff Up Your Supergroup

We all have songs that we swear by. Songs that, upon hearing them, take us to another place. It's almost as if those songs were written for us. Perhaps now they can be.

Your life's little list today is to pick the musicians who would collaborate on writing and recording your theme song. Keep it to a five piece band (unless, you know, you are a rock and roll rebel and can totally back up going outside of the rules). The instrumentation is your choice.

Name the music legends that will sing the song of you:

Jay Kay - Lyricist, Lead Vocals
Dave Grohl - Lyricist, Backing Vocals, Rhythm Guitar
Carlos Santana - Lead Guitar
Paul McCartney - Lyricist, Backing Vocals, Bass
Chad Smith - Drums @jmodus
