OOOOOOOOOPPS forgot christina aguilera.

glow_child_glow | 12-08-2005 14:27

actually, his first public appearance singing live was in 92..Songs To No One, im almost sure is a Gods And Monsters project, on which he didnt sing much...not as a "singer" anwyays..They were in the same band.

he didnt grow up with his father Tim, in fact he met him a total of once....

yeah it is Karl

most of Sketches wasnt pre Grace actually, the stuff he did pre-Grace was entirely life, Grace was his first recording sessions..Live @ Sin-é is proably hte earliest solid singing stuff, and that was 92-95 i think

xMajinx | 12-08-2005 14:42

billie joe armstrong
lukas rossi
christina agulera (im not a big fan of her, but she has a great range)
beyonce knowels (same as chrisina agulera)
whoever was the lead singer of radiohead...i cant remember

there, i dont care what any1 thinks of it

fireballz | 13-12-2006 18:50

hmm

amy lee
christina aguilera
mariah carey
whitney houston

^ all have simply amazingly powerful and versatile voices

sarah mclachlan
dido
lauryn hill

^ they don't typically exhibit power, but their angelic (sarah, dido) or deep, cool, husky (lauyrn) voices are amazing

not many guy voices stand out... one that i like though is the guy from staind, but can't remember his name.

bja77 | 13-12-2006 21:36

anthony keidis is the best hands down!!

but amy lee, beyonce, billie joe armstrong, christina aguilera, and the lead singer of Live are also very talented.

BoomCha | 01-05-2007 23:23

Seems like everyone has forgotten:
BONO

BTW,
everyone who says Billie Joe Armstrong is a great vocalist, where are your ears?

ComradeBrusco | 02-05-2007 18:10

My vote goes for Art Garfunkel. He's one of the greatest vocalists of all time, definitely.

Above_Wings | 10-05-2007 16:15

I love Amy Lee's voice

Well, that's my opinion

Shut_Up_N_Die | 17-05-2007 23:10

uh.... Justin Timberlake is obviously the greatest Vocalist ever... idiots

Frankie_ | 26-05-2007 16:54

here is few of the greatest vocalists in the world:
axl rose
michael monroe
vince neil
brett michael
ozzy osbourne
steven tyler
mick jagger
sebastian bach
billy idol

DaSynth | 27-05-2007 12:15

How is Anthony Kiedis the greatest vocalist? Sure he has an okay voice...but he's not really what i would call exceptional.

Are you guys putting in the singer of your favourite band or who you think is the best singer you've ever heard?

Theredgreen | 03-07-2007 19:02

Firtsly there's a difference between a technically good and a great vocalist, at least in my opinion. A great vocalist has got to have feeling or he's worthless
For an example Whitney Houston sure can sing but she leaves me freezing in the cold outside. Thats of course individual but Great vocalists are to me:

Axl Rose
Bobby Kimball
Bruce Dickinson
Elvis Presley
Jim Morrison
Glenn Danzig
Anthony Kiedis
Steven Tyler
Eric Burdon
Paul McCartney
John Lennon
Jon Bon Jovi
Jennifer Rush
Meat Loaf
Tarja Turunen
Roger Waters
Freddie Mercury
Bono

Famest | 13-07-2007 10:48

Theredgreen wins

, however you forgot to mention Freddie Mercury & Robert Plant, otherwise you think the same as me

Famest | 13-07-2007 10:49

oops, sorry for double-posting, but now I noticed that you already had mentioned Freddie Mercury, my bad mate!

Tiggerr | 21-07-2007 11:05

Maynard James Keenan is by the far the best vocalist ever

Lucifer_666 | 07-08-2007 08:20

Hmm... My opinion is far too vast to list here under my 2 minute attention span, so for now I'll say

Dani Filth

Trent Reznor

Layne Staley

So there.

I honestly hope nobody lists the A7X frontman if they haven't already, he's horrid.

Hutto | 11-08-2007 08:15

Bon Scott!

mikey_boy | 11-08-2007 20:59
