Lead Singers
 

Don't know if this thread has been done yet. But, here goes.

Who is your favorite lead singer from a band or group, or just your favorite singer?

Mine is Layne Staley (RIP) From Alice in Chains

He had a great voice and really knew how to sing.:cool:

Wow, tough to beat Lane, he was amazing.

I agree with you 100%. To bad we lost him so early on. I'm sure he could have given us much more.:(

I snickered when kurt cobain offed himself, but was truly saddened by lane staley's death. No offence to cobain, i just never thought he was as spectacular as others did, and i had a hhard time stomaching a guy who would leave a daughter behind, especially with courtney love as a mother....


Eddie Veder was really good on Ten. After than, i think Pearl Jam sucks in general.


Jim Morrison ruled. As did Marvin Gaye, and Nat King Cole.



Louis Armstrong was a god. My wife had "What a wonderful world" played for my dad at our wedding.

I also thought Bradley (Also RIP), the lead singer of Sublime was totally awesome. It's a shame we are losing all the good singers that could really do something with music.

The most senseless act of death brought upon a legendary and great singer was John Lennon. All he did was sing about peace and love and some stupid ass idiot had to take away what the world needed at the time and that was John Lennons words and songs. Pointless death. But he left behind much great music.

I never liked john lennon. i thought he was a self-absorbed, artsy fartsy asshole whop thought more of himslef than he deserved.


He certainly didnt deserve to die, though, especially so badly.

I was raised listening to John Lennon so I will always love his music. I was also raised listening to Bob Marley. Who rightously kicked major ass!!;)

i thought he was a genius - i didnt care about or truely know what he thought about himself ..
it was sad that he was in the process of making a positive uplifting comeback when he was cut down

i know yhis is old shit but what about rob zombie
and also lionel richie when he was with the commodores:D

i have to say though - that although i was raised on rock and will always love rock .. and respect the skill that screaming does take, etc ..

it doesnt hold a candle to sinatra, nat king cole, armstrong, dean martin, and the king : burt bacharach.
