what about John Lennon?
I love Bono's voice. Anytime anywhere any decade. But that's just me...

Jagger is NOT a good singer at all. The Rolling Stones are relatively talentless and have minimal artistic talent. Those two records are far from being the best. No way do they top Abbey Road or Revolver, or Dark Side Of The Moon or Wish You Were Here, or LZIII or ZOSO or Physical Graffiti, or OK Computer or Kid A, or Joshua Tree or Achtung Baby, or a host of others.

the tourist said:Jimmy Gnecco of OURS has quite possibly the best voice I've ever heard. Too bad he's too indie to be noticed. Seriously. I'd describe him as a mix between Bono from the mid-to-late 80s, Freddie Mercury, and Jeff Buckley. (listen to their song "Sometimes")

thanks you to the few who actually responded to the topic.

Jeff Buckley – Had an amazing voice but from what I’m kind pf pissed at him for dying so I won’t give him props he deserves.
Rafiennes said:
Elvis Costello – Criminally underrated singer. Character in his voice that some of these other singers would kill to have.
flangerchorus said:have any of you guys ever heard of Chris Cornell? , also there is a HUGE difference between a good singer and a good vocalist, cause Vedder is a great vocalist but a pretty average singer, on the other hand Mercury or Buckley are amazing singers, and so on

If you wanna talk about a singer, how about Micheal Hutchence. Anybody remember him? He died in 1997, but he used to front this band called INXS.

You won't give the man props because he died.
That's just fucking cold.

My thoughts exactly. "Grace" alone [never mind the second disc of the Legacy Edition, 'Mystery White Boy', 'Live at the Olympia' and some of 'Sketches for my Sweetheart the Drunk'] is enough to make you give the man every 'prop' he deserves!!
