The poll is kind of humorous.

1. "Music is banned in Khomeini's Iran...
...on the grounds that it stimulates the brain
We've done him one better in the land of Coke and honey
We use music to put peoples' brains to sleep." - Jello Biafra "Triumph Of The Swill"

Remember that tune well, off the Dead Kennedys "Bedtime for Democracy" record. Rather prescient record.
