Ok, How about you just name best female and male, or you could break it down by genre.
My favorite female is Lisa Gerrard, and male is probably Tim Buckley, because of the tone, but as far as skills go it's probably either Jeff Buckley or Jimmy Gnecco. Best scream would be the high pitched dude from A Static Lullaby. |

Best Female = Christina Aguilera, Norah Jones
Best Male = James LaBrie, Serj Tankian (these are my opinions, yours may vary)

I get the feeling that Daron is actually the driving force behind system of a down. Which brings me to a story almost totaly unrealted to that thought, and completely unrelated to this thread.
My friends and I went to see the snowcore tour 4 years ago about. System of a down, Incubus, and Mr. Bungle were playing. So we go to a Mcdonalds right before the show, and there are these dudes sitting there, and they are "freak" looking, and we sarcastically say: "hey look it's system of a down", and then we sit down behind them, so half way through my meal I realize that it is part of system of a down. I know it was Shavo, but I can't remember who else. Then John walks in and I talk to him for like 30 seconds and make an ass out of myself, mainly because he couldn't hear what I was saying, and I couldn't hear him. Then I told him to rock on, and my friends laughed at me for it, but it was a joke. |

I would love to meet these guys. My feelings are that this band is alot different from most, they have originality and a creative twist to their music. Plus, they are very passionate about what they write and believe in what they are doing is for a good cause.

Despite the fact I only like him in the Misfits, I'm really surprised by the lack of Glenn Danzig on this list.
Other: Gavin Hayes (more the El Cielo vocals) Johnny Cash (both old and new) Joe Strummer

Oh definitely Freddie Mercury!
However if the "Best Voice" is the definition of what the performer's voice is capable of then Joan Baez wins for sure. As a soprano she was able expand her voice with 3 octaves which is highly unusual for any soprano

Eric Clapton and Paul McCartney are great, and they both have an amazing range of pitch and style (Clapton's growl is just tingly good fun).
John Fogerty (CCR) has a very distinctive raspy powerful voice that I love. Cee-lo, anyone? Also: Elton John, Chali 2na (of Jurassic 5, the one with the very deep voice), Paul Simon, and Ronnie VanZant (Lynyrd Skynyrd)

Some of the names listed are rediculous...
I mean, I like a lot of the people listed, like Jimi Hendrix and Maynard, but c'mon, best voice? Nah... Chris Cornell from Soundgarden and Audioslave has an incredible range and can really put power behind the words. Also, I think a name that hasn't been mentioned yet is Dave Ghroel, singer from the Foo Fighters (and drummer from Nirvana too, heh). Even live he sounds pretty good, that's key. |
