Not all musicians could sing a perfect acappella. I just listed the voices that I like to hear most. They don't have to be perfect, but they move me in some way. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Mike Patton George Michael Christina Aguilera Freddie Mercury Prince Dennis De Young David Lee Roth Stevie Wonder Eldra Debarge Michael Jackson (before the 15th nose job) Bruce Dickerson Lou Gramm(back in the day he sounds like shit now) lol, I guess this is the 12 best voices lol Oh yeah I forgot J.T. Taylor from Kool and the gang [This message was edited Wed Aug 25 15:43:46 2004 by kdj997] | |

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said: Aretha Franklin
Chaka Khan Whitney Houston Jill Scott Michael McDonald James Ingram Luther Vandross George Michael Well - just exchange George Michael with Prince and i am with you. I loved the fact that you were able to put MichaelMcDonald on the list. Well - to name only 8 singers is stupid anyway. There are thousands of great singers in the world. Make sure you get some really old Nat King Cole and Ray Charles records. I can smell you would love these, you probalby have them anyway. Favorite song by MichaelMcDonald: "You belong to me". Cheers. Love...thy will b done | |

WOMEN: Older Vets Phylis Hyman Carole King Aretha Franklin Minnie Ripperton Patsy Cline Ella Fitzgerald Dinah Washington Etta James MEN: Older Vets Donny Hathaway Sam Cooke Otis Redding Nat King Cole Bill Medley Marvin Gaye Sammy Davis Jr. Johnny Mathis WOMEN: Current & Present Day Whitney Houston Anita Baker Oleta Adams Lauryn Hill Sade Heather Headley Cassandra Wilson MEN: Current & Present Day Donnell Jones Jeff Buckley Luther Vandross Al Jarreau EL DeBarge Prince Darryl Hall Nick Hucknall All choices are subject to change at any time.

This is a great list so far, I only have two more to add.
Morten Harket - His A-ha songs don't do him any justice. Listen to his solo album "Wild Seed" to get the full effect of this mans amazing voice. Billy Corgan - I may just be a fanboy but his voice is so unique that I couldn't help but fall in love with him. | |

EXCUSE ME - but ANITA BAKER must be on any great voices list. If you don't agree now wait until next week when her new album is released. | |
