Top 5 Rock Vocalists

Featured Replies

So who are your five favorite rock vocalists? This isn't a "best" thread or anything like that, just a little rundown of who tops your own list of kick-a** singers.

Paul Rodgers (still singing as good or better than ever, btw)

Chris Cornell

Myles Kennedy

Dug Pinnick

Hayley Williams (that vibrato..KILLS....too bad I don't really dig the band that much)

Chris Cornell would make my list. I've got to actually sit back and think about who else would be on mine. But how can Freddie Mercury not make it in the top 3.

That's why I made sure to point out that this isn't a "best" list, but a favs list.  Mercury was no doubt one of (if not THE) most technically accomplished singers in rock, but neither he, nor Queen have ever really been a band I cared to listen to.

I guess I should clarify:  I meant that how can he not make my top three.

Solid list

In no particular order:

Robert Plant

Ronnie James Dio

Ozzy Osbourne

James Hetfield (before he quit drinking)

Brent Smith or Myles Kennedy

Note that these are based on vocal talent not Front Man skills or I would have to update my list.

If this were high school I would have said:

Robert Plant

Chris Cornell

Eric Clapton

Jim Morrison

Maynard James Keenan

Now, I can't stand most of the music I used to listen to but this is how it might go now

Robert Plant can't stand Zeppelin much any more but he stays

Chris Cornell Anthony Caleb Followill

Eric Clapton

Jim Morrison Nick Thomas

Maynard James Keenan

There's so many good ones that those aren't the best ever but relevant to my current tastes

the singer from Death has a killer voice.
