[Cjay]

Difficult round this.

But based purely on the voice, the range, the control, the ability to sing different genres.

Adam Lambert.

His voice is incredible.

[Suffolkwhite Luke]

Had the fortune to see Springsteen at both his Hyde park dates, 73 and still smashing out 3 hour sets without a break and sounding on top form from first minute to last.

[ShaunL]

I will abstain here I reckon the toss (boss) is the most overrated singer ever. The worst thing about Xmas time is his version of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.

Ditto, and agreed.

Me neither.... his voice is just sooooooo monotonous.... gives Cave, Cohen and Morrisey a good run for the mogodon award....

The exceptional Myles Kennedy

Couldn't agree more. Been lucky enough to see him (with Alter Bridge and with Slash) about half a dozen times. He is unbelievably good.

[The Subhuman]

Jeff Healy, best of a poor bunch

[DDB220]

Has to be Freddie - absolute legend. Queen was the first band I saw live at ER in 1977.

Jeff Healy a hotel lobby singer. I would break whatever sound system I was listening to if I had his music playing on loop, same as Morrisey, who to me always sounds like a pissed poor man’s working club crooner.

Ed’s quality and the worldwide figures and accolades back it up.

[DDB220]

Leonard Cohen - how is he a vocalist.

[DDB220]

I don’t know how half of the nominee’s are actually vocalists. I notice no one selected Michael
MacDonald in the whole shabang. Now there is a dude who could carry a tune.

WTF nominated Leonard Cohen, I fart better melodies

[DDB220]

Difficult round this.

Adam Lambert.

His voice is incredible.

Agree one of only a few vocalists who could attempt to wear Freddie’s shoes. I remember watching him on American Idol and wondered how he came second.

I did write artist initially, but he isn’t a song creator writer - which makes a huge difference to me.
