All this woman ever sang was light, healthy porn 4 teenagers. Nothing wrong with it, it's just boring and expresses a very narrow range of sentiment. Now Joni Mitchell in her prime was something else!!!! | |

For me, it's definitely Annie Lennox, but there are quite a few decent ones. George Michael is right up there. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |

I can't believe no one's mentioned Michael Jackson yet.  "I don't need your forgiveness, cos I've been saved by Jesus, so fuck you." | |

Michael Jackson wouldn't know soul if it rang his doorbell as an 11-year-old boy dressed in a school uniform. Cornbread, Grits, and Collard Greens/I got what you need/If you want it/Cuz I'm a pimp, girl/With a drippy, juicy Jheri Curl | |

My vote goes for Mick Hucknall of Simply Red and Lisa Stansfield. | |

I know Michael McDonald's hits. The only one I like is "What A Fool Believes" but I find him rather folky and not soulful! | |

Sounds like you need to listen to more Marvin Gaye. That man could do pure and raw just as easily as smooth and beautiful... sometimes even in the same song! Imo youre both right and it all depends on who youre singing for. Many artists get pigeon holed into a package. Best white soul singer? I dont know. Its prolly Pavorotti or somebody who dosent sing American soul music. Real gut bucket singers? Gotta think about that | |

You don't like "Takin' It to the Streets"? "I Keep Forgettin'"? "Minute By Minute"? 
His two Motown albums are also quite good. "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |
