I just watched a rerun of MTV's "Best Voices" show where they name the"best" voices in the music biz. before I start criticizing this list here were the winners:

1. Mariah Carey
2. Freddie Mercury
3. Whitney Houston
4. Christina Aguilera
5. ALANIS MORISETTE
6. Aretha Franklin
7. BJORK
8. Madonna
9. Celine Dion
10.Tina Turner

it should be noted that Micheal Jackson was voted as #11
I am now truly convinced that the viewers of mtv who voted for this list are in need of serious psychiatric help. ALANIS MORISETTE?????
SHE HAS LIKE THE WORST FUCKING VOICE IN THE HISTORY OF SINGING EVEr!!!!!
BJork????? Icelandic Vocal Crap, unbelievably tasteless voice. now how in the hell Alanis morisette is ranked higher than Aretha Franklin, Micheal Jackson & celine Dion is beyond me. Is Mtv going Crazy??

Madonna's on the list and Annie Lennox isn't?

Alanis is on the list and Bowie isn't?

Wow, that's dumb.

Listed as the "best" yet somehow I doubt they even play their videos!!

I'm surprised that they didn't pick PAULA ABDUL or UNCLE KRACKER to be in the top ten with all the shitty talent like Bjork & Alanis they have on this list

I agree with the Bjork part at least.

GangstaFam said:

I mean, I think she has a fucking awesome voice.

GangstaFam said:

well, at least you agree with you.

and i do too!

GangstaFam said:

awesomly terrible indeed!

Xavier23 said:

When in hell did Bjork become a shitty talent? Isn't there a middle ground between that and the best singer ever? WTF???

Xavier23 said:

Whatevs. I get more range and depth of feeling from her singing than Aretha Franklin's, but I guess that's just me.

Xavier23 said:

Terribly awesome.

GangstaFam said:

that really is just you

Xavier23 said:

and me. and a few others i'm sure will pop up on this thread. and, if you're really wanting to pick nits, we can head over to bjork's official fan site and add a couple more names.

i guess my point is...it's NOT just him.

WTF? Mariah before WHITNEY! Bullshit. Showboater.

Xavier23 said:

Just because she sings like an untamed beast and has an accent, doens't mean she can't sing.

GangstaFam said:

only untalented hacks can write, produce and record an entire album of layered a cappella. don't you know anything?

GangstaFam said:

so true!

Anxiety said:

I guess not.

Anxiety said:

LMAO!

I just noticed this.

Xavier23 said:

no way, bjork is actually classically trained..i can respect that her vocal style is not your taste but to dismiss the emotional weight that is present in her voice speaks more about your bias then it does her vocal skills...

i dont like how mariah uses her voice but i still respect the god given talent she has...

sosgemini said:

okay so maybe I am a little biased towards Bjork & Alanis....

Xavier23 said:

aint got no disagreement with me on that one....well, i do love "Uninvited"....that song is gold....but the sheep/goat thing going on on all her other stuff?

sometimes best goes with most reconginazable

And I'm sure I'm in an even bigger minority that actually likes Madonna's voice.

GangstaFam said:

Add me to that minority then.

Xavier23 said:

Freddie Mercury and Celine Dion are the other two non Americans in the list. Just in case you want to add them to your list

SEXUAL CHOCOLATE!

Xavier23 said:

hey that's not fair. i bet you haven't even heard her
vespertine or medulla albums.

she can shreek like the best of them on some of her
singles, but when her voice is warm and fuzzy it is
unlike anything else you've ever heard.

just because you don't like her voice does not mean
that she has a bad voice.



I mean, I like the way Madonna sings, but I also know
that she is not the best singer out there. In fact,
she's a downright poor singer at best.

People like Thom Yorke and Björk get so much shit over
their vocals yet, they can actually SING. they have a
range that consists of more than 2 notes.



not dissing you Xavier, just pissed at people hating on
Bjork all the time
