The three circles can overlap. Peter Gabriel, for example. Probably David Byrne, Brian Eno, Nina Simone too, off the top of my head.
- Devin Townsend?
  
  Hard to say. Going through his wiki, I don't see anything political left or right. Vegetarian for ethical reasons seems to be a mild left I guess
  
  ...
- AURORA came to mind immediately as a trio candidate.
- I can think of a ton, actually. The just don't overlap with a fourth circle, "mainstream appeal," they're all folk singers like Phil Ochs and David Rovics. Most main stream is probably Todd Snider and he's by no means nationally popular or anything.
  
  Freddie Mercury and Prince?
  
  Their only controversy is that they liked sex and were bi, which to my mind, as someone who that also applies to, I don't see as immoral.
  
  edit: grammar got fucked
- honestly, probably most musicians
  
  🧐
This is being very generous to Kid Rock.
Those circles are too close to kid rock
Kid rock makes music for people who smoke newports through a hole in their neck.
- And put truck nuts on their rascal scooter
  
  Oh man now I want to get a rascal so I can have rascal nuts.
  
  Why did you make me realize this possibility.
  
  I want to get a little smart car and give it nuts too.
  
  Everything needs nuts. We should fucking nuts for our phones bro.
  
  PHONE NUTS! My 6 dollar idea!
- Kid Rock makes music for people who don't pay their child support
What makes this song stink
- Duuuude I just discovered this guy, been binging all his videos.
See also: Ted Nugent missing all of the circles by a country mile.
- Nugent did give us an effective method for dodging the draft though.
- Eh? He's definitely made a few hits in his time.
  
  Hits ≠ good or interesting music. Kid Rock has had hits too.
Why can’t good people make interesting music
Although I agree, some of this things songs live in my head. For years.

ON A STEAL HORSE I RIDE. (but I am not a cowboy)

(make it stop)
- *steel
  
  That's Bon Jovi, not Kid Rock.
  
  Well I don't own a horse, so how else am I riding one?
- Thats bon jovi cover
"I'm gonna tell my dad!"

Lil' Lord Rob Ritchie
in order to be a decent human being and make interesting music one has to pass the kid rock stage
Kid rock should be a point on the graph, not a section of it.
- cause hes a big something else. hes not making good music, nor hes good himself. hes definetly big... something.
