Your Favourite Vocalist(s)

Technically, I think that Brendon Urie, Patrick Stump, and Emilie Autumn are pretty much top of the game. But my favourite vocalist currently is Z Berg (The Like/JJAMZ). She has something wonderful and very charismatic in her voice.

Wow. Okay. This is a good one.
There are several, but I'll try to narrow it down to top five, not necessarily in this order, but here it goes.

1. Maynard James Keenan of Tool and A Perfect Circle
2. James Hetfield of Metallica
3. Chris Cornell of Soundgarden
4. Ronnie James Dio
5. Layne Staley of Alice in Chains

There are a couple more, but those are probably my favorites!

I'm actually really surprised to see older names here (Elton John, Dio), but that's awesome.

I love Stevie Nicks, I usually find myself saying that male singers sound better (to me anyway) but her voice is feminine perfection.

There's also Don Henley (Eagles and solo career), the many lead singers for Boston, Elton John, Ozzy, Johnny Cash, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik (1D), and tons more that I really can't think of at the moment.

But my all time favorite is M. Shadows (Avenged Sevenfold). That man can do some amazing things with his voice...

And of course, The Rev (Avenged Sevenfold) had a beautiful set of vocal chords as well :)

Billie Joe Armstrong, and not just because he's the singer of my favorite band or that his voice in extremely sexy, but also because not only does he convey such emotion and meaning through his lyrics, but also his tone as he sings.
His voice alone saved me in some of the hardest times in my life and I can't even describe what he means to me.

I also adore Matt Sanders (M. Shadows), Ben Burnley and Josh Ramsay. Unique and beautiful
