Basically what i wanna know is what the average escapist considers a "good" musical anime. Feel free to share you're favorites.

My favorites (and i have two) are Beck:Mongolian Chop Squad, and Interstella 5555 (The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem). Can't really tell which i like better, but Insterstella is the visualization of Daft Punk's album "Discoveries", while it does have a definite and incredible story, i don't know if it counts as a really long music video or an anime.

Having trouble thinking of a "musical" anime, but if we're going with animes about music, then "The Legend of Black Heaven" is a good one.

Its about a former rock star who's settled down with a family and soul-crushing job. He's unhappy until he gets recruited by aliens who want to use his musical ability as a weapon. I know, its a bit weird, and it's also a little old, but it is still very enjoyable. Definitely watch the English dub if you can. Its one of those rare cases of English being better than Japanese.
