[Music] Your favourite singer.

[Gregory2Smith1]

Male-Bruce Dickinson

Female-Olivia Newton John

 

[DavidRyder]

Favourite doesn't always translate into 'best', or even 'can sing very well'. I like Kristin Hersh, but her voice is pretty ropey! Tori Amos has a decent tune on her and I do love her style.

 

[Seagull kimchi]

Sandy Denny
Terry Reid and Steve Marriott.

 

[pearl]

Ella Fitzgerald, Natalie Merchant, Karen Carpenter, Natalie Mering, Joan Shelley, Hope Sandoval.

Pure and class

Karen Carpenter

Ian McCulloch

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Geri Halliwell

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Kirsty MacColl.

John Lennon/Neil Diamond/Tom Odell

I appreciate an interesting voice rather than a clinically perfect one. The latter tend to bore me to death, I’ve no time for shows such as X-Factor and The Voice - yawn!

 

[ozzygull]

Male Phil Collins
Female Stevie Nicks

 

[Pevenseagull]

Nina Simone

Pretty good at the piano as well.

[Farehamseagull]

Good question, tough answer. I'd have to say a top 5 in no particular order:

Liam Gallagher;
John Lennon;
Martin Rossiter;
Morrissey;
Frank Sinatra.

 

[Surf's Up]

Male - dead heat between Marvin Gaye and Curtis Mayfield
Female - Sandy Denny

 

[METALMICKY]

Nat King Cole
Bruce Dickinson
Ronnie James Dio
Dolores O'Riordan
Chester Bennington

 

[Pevenseagull]

Karen Carpenter

Ian McCulloch

Ian McCulloch v David McComb

That's a tough call

[Igzilla]

Dave Wyndorf
David Sylvian
Tori Amos
Julie London

 

[Frutos]

Male: Freddie

Female: Karen Carpenter

 

[happypig]

Steve Winwood and Dusty Springfield. Neither are my favourite artists but both have incredible voices.

Ian McCulloch v David McComb

That's a tough call

I saw the Triffids above the Richmond Pub (about 1984). Just read what happened to David McComb, that's tragic

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Your mum.

 

[Icy Gull]

Bob Dylan, his timing and delivery is as good as Sinatra’s although the voice may not be the same quality

Female, a tie between Dusty Springfield and Sandy Denny

 

[GOM]

Certainly none of the modern singers. I can't make out the words they are mumbling into the mike.
