I must be absolutely nuts to think Robert Plant is the most talented singer of all time.
Whenever they ask fellow lead singers their top 10 of all time Plant is almost always 1 or 2.
YYZ must be alot wiser than all of us. Vinnie chimes in, I take dumps bigger and smarter than that guy.
Go listen, ah I cant bother with morons.
YYZ is probably going to say Steven Tyler:thefinger

Great call judge. He was before my time but growing up with him and the Platters playing on my parents record player. What a voice he had. Nice call.
Mary J blige, never would have bet on seeing that name in here, not even in a top 500 list.
Elton is great

Freddie Mercury easily No 1.
Honorable Mention Off Hand: Sam Cooke, Plant, Ian Gillian, Brad Delp, Roger Daltrey, Bruce Dickinson, Elton John, Barry White

i like a wide variety of different music & of course this all is a matter of opinion...
i think frank sinatra was the most influential singer of the 20th century...& all you have to do is read interviews on the subject from such singers as bono, harry connick jr., michael buble, johnny mathis, sting & singers from years ago as vic damone,jerry vale,sammy davis...etc....
the reason why i think sinatra was so influencial was his phrasing of songs...it changed the way popular music after the 1940's was sung....
in the late 1930's when sinatra first started singing & into the 1940's is voice was very pure & almost perfect & he was known as "the voice"....but i didn't like his music then...too boring imo...
i liked the sinatra with the attitude....the not so perfect voice of the 1950's through the 1970's...with the scotches & marlboros in him...
imo he stayed around too long..but i guess he earned the right to....
beside sinatra...some of my favorite singers in no particular order & not necessarily the best voices....but singers that i wouldn't change the radio station when they came on
nat king cole...who would have been more famous had he been white....
bono
sting
freddy mercury
barry white
ray charles...nobody had more soul than him
rod stewart
stevie nicks
bonnie raitt
carly simon...think her voice is gold...
anita baker...very sexy voice
marvin gaye..also very sexy voice
luther vandross
billy joel
bb king
elvis
i'm sure ther are plenty more that i can't think of...
singers who have/had a great voices that i would change the radio station...
bing crosby
barbra streisand
judy garland
michael buble
karen carpenter
celine dion
johnny mathis
also sure that i am leaving some out....

deep greens and blues
are the colors I choose
=====================
FEMALE:
Aretha Franklin :kiss:
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
2 good choices lanny....both have great voices....saw james taylor in concert at st' johns university years ago & thought he was very boring...like him better on the radio...:142smilie
yeah..agree with you about blige...very good voice imo...
imo elton john has an ok voice....but like his songs very much...
yeah agree with you about led zepplin...
I think James Taylor has somehow become a characture of himself or something. I agree AR a great voice and a lot of great songs but BORRRRING!
I love Karen Carpenter. I think she is one of the all time great voices that we lost too soon.
