Best singer

Paul McCartney

 

Depends on what you mean by best?

Voice? Kate Bush, Anastasia, Kate Pierson, Peter Gabriel.

So many.

 

Roy Orbison

 

Neil Young.

 

Michael Jacson, Axl Rose, Aretha Franklin and Freddie Mercury all have amazing voices.

Edit: Throw in James Brown, Mariah Carey and and Steven Tyler too.

 

Even though its not someone i would really listen to, Whitney in her day was incredible.

 

You lot probably haven't heard of her (even though Bafta was nice enough to feature her in their in memoriam section), and she recently passed away at the age of 92, but Lata Mangeshkar.

Had a voice of an angel, sang over 5400 songs across 30+ languages and almost every one of them was a hit.

Of the English voices, I love Dido, Whitney and Gerry Marsden.

 

The 4432 takes some beating

 

Laura Marling.

 

What a woman.


Bonnie Tyler on Botox and her biggest regret

 

Chris Cornell, Eddie Vedder both have amazing voices.

 

Cornell is widely acknowledged by rock musicians to have had the best rock 'n' roll voice of them all but I would place Eddie just behind him. I can't put a link up because Pearl Jam don't allow their music to be put up via the usual channels, but if you can get hold of it have a liusten to Eddie sing the epic tune, Black. It's just one of many samples of how good his voice is..

 

Steve Perry from Journey.

 

Celine Dion.

 

Milli Vannili
