 Tough one. In no particular order...
Marvin Gaye Prince Curtis Mayfield Maxwell El DeBarge The late Ephraim Lewis Sam Cooke Chris Isaak Doyle Bramhall Sylvester (The last two have a pretty impressive falsetto, though I'm not a particular fan of their work.) [Edited 6/8/07 14:59pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

for some reason i REALLY REALLY like MJ's falsetto {NOT dstyge cuz thats what most people think about}
its not "perfect" but its piercingly sad and honest. I truly wish he did it more. Like Prince, its the strongest part of his vocals i think. i recall the performance of HUMAN NATURE from the dangerous tour. vocally he was a little shakey, very out of breath. been when he belted out the "WHHHHHY O WHYYYYY" part, it was effortless. MJ's falsetto is HIGHLY underrated. its hard to say MJ=UNDERRATED in the same sentence here, i know  | |

not crazy about falsetto at all, despite the fact that some of my favorite singers do it often and well. "Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you." - Kahlil Gibran | |

In no particular order... (incl. some not-so-obvious picks) Wayne Cooper Prince Hamish Stuart Gary 'Mudbone' Cooper Rick James Philip Bailey I am 100% sure I forgot a lot of people I should've mentioned so I'll probably get back to this later on and add to my list. It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
