The man has vocal talent for real. When he's on, he's on good.

Interesting tone and great control!

Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss...

When he sings in tune and doesn't oversing, he's good. But, I have heard him sound terrible. Sometimes he warbles all over the place. I hate oversinging.

He's not bad singer but he is more of a studio singer. There are certain singers who sound better on the record then live. I have watched him live and sometimes I can't get into his singing. He warbles and lot and sometimes out of tune.

I'm a Cee-lo fan but his worse performance was when he participated in a tribute to Patti Labelle on BET. He tends to put too much focus on dressing in drag & theatrics instead of just going on and singing the damn song like it should be heard. He could have tore that song up on BET..He had the voice to do it.....

Now about a 5

The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

Cee Lo has a unique voice and he can do alot of things with it but Im not that impressed with his singing. His singing is really okay most of the times but it has its moments when it stands out.

I would give his voice a 8.

I would give his singing a 5.

I do enjoy his music though

He's distinctive and more than capable voice, imo.
