Great Vocalists

[the_interloper]

I love Clutch's vocalist Neil Fallon, so much character and personality about him, great band too.




Also this won't be everyone's cup of tea but John Tardy is my favourite death metal vocalist, scares the s**t out of you the first time you hear him ha ha

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

Ahhhh Linda.

 

[Bostonian]

Ann Wilson is 70, still looks like she's in her 50's

 

[LeakyValve]

This gal loves the big-time, sentimental ballads but she can sing. That occasional, curious little yelp at the end of a line could be done away with though.

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Some of my favourites - a few have been mentioned already.

Devin Townsend - Ridiculous range and control


Lee Douglas (Anathema) - Her voice has this quality that i find hard to describe but it gets me every time


Tatiana Shmayluk (Jinjer) - Mainly for her harsh vocals but she can sing quite well too. Her control changing from screaming to singing is exceptional, like Devin Townsend


Simone Simons (Epica) - Some of the notes she hits in this song are just ridiculous.


Mike Mills (Toehider) - An Aussie who has featured on several other albums by bands such as Ayreon

 

[Exe Gesis]

Glenn Hughes again

George Michael is one of my faves!
He is a very famous pop singer.

You should have a listen to his live album, Symphonica to realise just how good a singer he was.

So a cover of a Celine Dion cover.

It's a cover of Jennifer Rush.

As Molly used to tell us, do yourself a favour and listen to this pair together, wow!

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Some of the best, LRB. Glenn Frey described them as the best singing band in the world. You can pick anyone of them, all great vocalists.







From the mid 70s to mid 80s with Doc out the front The Angels were as good as anyone we've every had, imo.



A personal favourite, Alison Moyet

 

[Mesc]

Nice one mate. Cheers for that.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Farnham almost star struck.

George McCrae



Jeff Lynne - ELO, this clip is 4 or 5 years old and the song about 40 years old, Jeff is 68 or 69 years old in this. The 2nd video's almost worth watching just for Ann-Margaret dancing in it.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

My late mum's favourite, I didn't mind her either.

 

[rumply]

Most of my favourite singers are female.

Debbie Harry


Siouxsie Sioux


Kate Bush


Toni Halliday

Annie Lennox


Dido


Janis Joplin


Amy Winehouse

Ball and Chain at Monterey brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it. The vision of her feet stomping into the floor of the stage and stretching up onto her toes is like her soul leaving her body as she summons up the power for the performance. Incredible. Mama Cass sitting there open mouthed just saying, wow.

She was an absolute force of nature, gone at 27. If you haven't seen the documentary, Little Girl Blue, I recommend it. Some very sad things happened to her when she was younger at school and it haunted her.

 

[CliffMcTainshaw]

All I can say is I have no idea what language the bloke is singing in. And all I really know is that he comes from Kazakhstan and he has the most amazing voice you will ever hear. Mind bogglingly good, just remarkable!!!!!!! I can't remember hearing anyone with such a range, man or woman. Music finishes at about 4-20. If you want to understand what he's singing about click on the closed Caption (CC) button.
Dimash Qudaibergen - 7 octaves and 2 semitones

Michael Hutchence is kinda underrated as a singer.
Firstly, he can sing very well.
But also, the thing I also like to look for in a singer....vocal arrangements....how they vocalize the words, phrases and sentences in lyrics.
Been listening to alot of INXS's early stuff, as well as their latter stuff, and Hutchence is really really good at vocal arrangements. His own unique way.

 

[James_Blues]

Colter was 19 when he filmed this video. Just a ridiculous voice

 

[two blue tiger]

Without doubt one of the greatest female artists of the 20th century - extraordinary voice and songwriting skills.........

 

[two blue tiger]

Pretty hard to go past this bloke in the short list of the greatest male vocalists of all time...............

 

[two blue tiger]

The little known, but utterly brilliant, Matt Moffitt. Left us way too early back in the early 2000's at only 46.

Lead singer of Matt Finish (look them up!).

What a voice.........

I feel embarrassed for never hearing of him, thanks for bringing his name up. searching and impressed.

 

[Exe Gesis]

He sounds way off key to me
