Tooj 17 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Now of all of the music you yourself listen to, who in your opinion has the greatest voice? This man stands out in front for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14181 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 In terms of raw emotion, it's got to be Tom Waits, but obviously he's not exactly what you'd call a technical genius. Ella Fitzgerald for a more conventional choice then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeazesMag 0 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Crikey. My favourite group is Free, so on that basis I'd say Paul Rodgers. Why restrict this to rock music though ? Does anyone have a case for classical singers, for instance ? There are many singers that aren't my cup of tea, but I would acknowledge they are great voaclists. Some of the Tamla Motown singers, especially Levi Stubbs and Diana Ross [which I also like], were simply brilliant too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zathras 234 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Hard to separate genres for this. Mercury is tough to beat. Roy Orbison's voice has a unique quality also. Ella Fitzgerald is another one along with Nat King Cole -- like I said, it's really hard to judge those first two against the second two; not enough common ground.

NJS 4030 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I know there are better "technical" vocalists than those in bands I like just as I know there are better "technical" guitar players. However its all about the the voice as part of the songs for me so I say Bono. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
