I have a thing for the lead singers of Incubus, Linkin Park, Bon Jovi, Sugar Ray, U2, Matchbox 20, and the list goes on and on. I think I'm a lead singer addict. Larry is the only exception.
 
lead singers usually have the closest relationship between the band and the fans. they're right there, it's more emotional with them. plus, they seem more powerful, as if they carry the band. (sometimes they do, in U2's case they don't.) i think that's what makes them more sexually appealing. in today's market, record execs. usually want the lead singer to be the most attractive member of the band. they sell rock music like pop today.

mark from sugar ray and jon bon jovi are cuties.

I have to borrow a phrase from a Moby fan.. "bedroom eyes".

Anyway.. I agree, the lead singers get regarded as the most important part of the band, when they are equal to the rest of the band in terms of importantness. And yeah, the record execs always want the lead singer to be the best looking. Blah. :p Looks aren't important. It's talent, charisma, personality, etc. that make up a great singer.

was John Taylor!! Pics of John and Adam were plastered on my walls (much to the dismay of my mum) as a teen!


OMG, I was in love with John Taylor also. I had pictures of him on my wall as well...

Ooooooh...Sicy, I love Dave Gahan! He is very attractive!!

I also agree that Michael Hutchence was gorgeous as well...he was one of my first rock star crushes.

lots of things I want to say....

OK: I love eddie vetter, too.

next: sting IS hot.

then: adam has a lot of magnetism and interacts with the audience fantastically!

for example, here is a very fuzzy pic of him looking right at me...I'm sure he is.

also, Sting was a bass player. and a lead singer. and he has tremendous magnetism.

therefore, he strengthens my addition to the discussion, that bass players are attractive.

Thank yoooouuuuu Sicy for the Dave Gahan pics!! He looks unbelievable in the Dream On vid.

As for Sting, he may not be with the Police any more, and he may be 50, but he is hotness itself. I personally think he's improved with age. Like many British guys, seemingly, he looked a little scrawny and even slightly effeminate when he was younger--to me--but now he has great muscles as well as everything else!

the frontman is the one that draws more attention from fans. the voice is one of the first things you associate with a band, of course in U2 it's Bono's voice, but also Edge's sound...it's unique to U2. Speaking for myself, I know I can pick up on a U2 song simply by listening to the melody of Edge's guitar.
