who is your best frontman singer?

[IAmComfortablyNumb]

"From the Late Nite Panky-Hanky's and the Esquire of Squeelies, Here is tonights top ten list, Starting from:
#10) Cliff Richard (The Drifters, The Shadows, & solo career)
# 9) Paul Stanley (KISS)
# 8) Sting (The Police)
# 7) Don Henley (The Eagles)
# 6) Ronnie Van Zant (Lynyrd Skynyrd)
# 5) Ann Wilson (Heart)
# 4) Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin)
# 3) Phil Keaggy (Glass Harp, Sunday's Child, solo career) -Incredible Guitarist too!
# 2) Geddy Lee (Rush) - I'm biased, he's Canadian and a great bassist to boot!
.........And topping off tonights top ten list is:

# 1) Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) - Of Course!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

My fav is not on there...Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam

 

[Zadok7000]

I voted Dickinson but the real answer is Rob Halford.

Of the list of names I chose Mercury. Outstanding singer.

I have a special place in my heart for Van Halen though, both Roth and Hagar incarnations.

Another favourite not listed is Gary Cherone from Extreme. Awesome pipes. Interestingly I still have not heard a track from the Van Halen album with Cherone - all I know is everyone seems to have hated that album.

Eddie Vedder, Bono.....both great choices.....but I might have to put Joe Strummer at the top.

From that list...Robert Plant. I love Led Zeppelin.

 

[schwarzes_schaf]

Bono (U2)
Khan (Kamelot)
Freddie Mercury (Queen)

[seeingstars]

How could you leave out Ozzy Osbourne?

 

[WalkOn]

Bono of U2, without a doubt.

Ditto...although Jon Foreman from Switchfoot is close.

 

[Searching_for_Christ]

The absolute best frontman is Roy Khan from Kamelot

 

[Scotty Bee]

I Like Jon Bon Jovi as a front man singer

 

[gohst]

I'll say Steven Tyler since I'm writing a little about him tonite!
And I'm going to choose "other," becuz I do not see his name up there
appreciate the thread!

 

[Bay]

Mick Jagger
David Lee Roth

 

[marlowe007]

How could you leave out Ozzy Osbourne?

He may be a clown these days - actually, by my watch he's coming up on three decades of buffoon status - but back in his Sabbath-era prime, there was no voice more indelible than Ozzy's. Sure, he was no Bing Crosby, but that caterwauling foghorn-o'-doom had amazing strength and presence and - can it be true? - he could actually sing besides!

And I gotta make a place in the pantheon for Enuff Znuff's Donnie Vie. No better purveyor of Beatles-influenced power pop and ballads exists.

Best frontman singer in my opinion. Perfected vibrato, incredibly high pitch and all with complete control over every line.

R.I.P Midnight.

 

[Moonstruck4U]

Queen's singer
Roger Daltrey
Sammy Hagar
Pat Benatar

 

[Aces High]

The weird thing is, there's a poll on the best front-men, which consists of rock musicians, and yet Elvis Presley is missing, the most famous of them all.

Poll fail.
