queensrychefan Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Mine would have to be... you guessed it... Geoff Tate of Queensryche. Does any other vocalist have his incredible range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Vicky Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Favorite male vocalist.... hmmm. This is a tough one. None of the artists that I love the most have particularly great voices, to say the least. Don't get me wrong, I love the sound of their voices but let's face it, Tom Petty, Walter Egan, and Warren Zevon all have a tendency to sound quite nasal and Lindsey Buckingham tends to, at certain times, sound strained, feminine, or like he just inhaled a bunch of helium. And his voice tends to crack, a lot, especially in live performances. So I'll give the "favorite male vocalist" award posthumously to someone who isn't one of my favorite artists but who possessed a really great voice: Elvis Presley. And with Roy Orbison a second runner up. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 My favorite is probably Freddie Mercury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I don´t really like "big voices" but if I had to choose I´d keep Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, John Lennon (he has a sexy voice), Freddie Mercury, Leonard Cohen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie_sane Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 I love John Lennon's voice, especially in the early Beatles albums when he was singing those really rockin' tunes. Freddie Mercury has a great voice (of course), I like David Bowie's voice (deep and sexy), Robert Plant can really wail and I like the perfection that is The Eagles!! Voices of angels!

Levis Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 You can't touch Freddie Mercury. Anyone else is a distant second. Robert Plant included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Roger Clyne, but of course. Not that he has the "best" voice in the world, but it's the way he uses it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazy diamond Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 You can't beat Robert Plant-Freddie's the only one who even comes close. I saw Robert earlier this year here in NY and he stick kicks ass. Plus I am a raging Zeppelin fanatic, so, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 I don't know that I have a favorite, but I like Bono's voice a lot, Freddy Mercury, Levi Stubbs and Marvin Gaye. I don't know his name, but the lead singer of Lifehouse has a nice voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenacious_Peaches Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 I won't even try to narrow it down, but I've been on an Al Green kick here lately. I love the raspiness in his voice. Sing it, Reverend Al! Is raspiness a real word or did I just make that up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 On "The Family Guy", the son Chris was spray painting grafitti on the side of a building. It read "That's enough, John Mayer." Dear Lord, I love that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
