Perhaps they don't identify themselves as philosophers, but you do...

You know what i mean [hopefully].

Syd Barret and Roger Waters - Pink Floyd
Maynard James Keenan - Tool
Syd because his head was so open, o.k, he had abit of help from certain chemicals, however if YOU have an open mind then you can see where he was coming from. As for Roger, well his look of life is so true. He writes about the things most people wont admit to. Both legends.
As for Maynard, one of the most underrated musicians of the past decade. Very clever and very complex lyrics. Not only that an amazing singer, both c.d and live.

I know the most common answers will be Dylan & Lennon, but unless you have the lyrics in front of you how could you understand ANY of Dylans words? He is the WORST singer to ever walk on the face of the planet!! Lennon was ok for being a member of the original boy band. Seriously, think about it, what band got the 12 year old girls more worked up the the beatles?
My answer would be Tori Amos. I agree that shes a little odd but like her or not, her lyrics are very deep and personal.

Well, Bob Dylan has already been mentioned, so I would say :~
Ian Anderson
His lyrics are mostly observances of life, but they're dressed up in the music and presentation in such a way that you don't think of them as philosophy until you look deeper into them.
Stevie Nicks
Her lyrics take real life experiences and sprinkle a hint of the mystical to turn them into something that has different meaning to everyone.

at an identical time as there is a few dope Christmas themed instrumental albums, alot of Hip Hop "Christmas" albums basically finally end up being ridiculous. in spite of this, a Quannum Christmas could be extremely dope basically as a results of selection you have. you may desire to get DJ Shadow and chief Xcel to produce it. Joyo Velarde is a large singer and Lateef The Truthspeaker and Pigeon John, to boot to spitting, are extraordinarily reliable singers to boot. Then of direction present of Gab and Lyrics Born, who components in extraordinarily lots any form needed. yet you may additionally blend the album up with different Quannum acts like Honeycut, Apsci and Curumin to furnish it a greater eclectic sense. perhaps get Slick Rick to do an intro lol.

Billy Joel...
I believe I've passed the age, of consciousness and righteous rage,I found that just surviving was a noble fight...I once believed in causes too, I had my pointless point of view, but life went on no matter who was wrong or right...
Angry Young Man (from his height)
or
I'm not sure about life after this, God knows I've never been a spiritual man...'bought time I found my way to the river that is leading to the promised land.
River of Dreams (from his later years)

You're 21 and still your mother makes your bed...and that's too long...

Bob Dylan is probably the greatest songwriter ever but i personally think Morissey's lyrics go a lot deeper.
