My personal faves, and again, no way indicative of the best male voices ever:

Michael Jackson (but before he got all excessive with the shamones and hee hees) and truthfully I still contend that Jermaine actually has a better voice, but the grease and the attitude are a turn off

Marvin Gaye
Luther Vandross
Maxwell
Marques Houston (needs to break away from his lil crew and get some better material)
Ne-Yo
George Michael
Jamie Foxx (needs to check his ego though, but his voice is crazy)
Lionel Richie
Mario (also needs better material)

I've seen Jermaine on several lists (mine included), it's nice to see him getting some love. He's terribly underrated in mosat circles, but I will agree with those who say his overblown ego is a huge turn off.

Teddy Pendergrass
Smokey Robinson

I based my list strictly on vocals, and not necessarily on technical proficiency, but rather my own tastes. There's several artists that I like much more overall musically than some that I've listed, yet I don't find them to be great vocalists.

There are so many vocalists past and present it is very difficult 2 narrow it down 2 ten. I probably have at least 100 plus.
