Your Favorite singer is

[tzarinna]

Duncan Sheik

He's got an incredible voice,like an angel. Great song writer.Just a very talented guy.

The battle of the bands has been played out.
If you have a list,list away.

[Sarge 2.0]

Jeff Buckley. Amazing, awe inspiring voice. It's a shame he died has young as he did, because he was a pretty good songwriter, too. "Lover, You Should've Come Over" is an excellent song.

[tzarinna]

Jeff Buckley.

Duncan wrote a song called "A Body Goes Down" about Jeff.

Once in a while
A man comes along
Even his failures were favorite songs
Oh to have made something so unsurpassed
As certain things fall away
So certain things last
A body goes down
In the Mississippi waters
Weighted by a beauty
Afraid of its light
Notify your holy men
Console your sons and daughters
And tell me one more time
What is just
What is right
Chances are good
We spread blasphemous lies
Safe to say nobody knew what was inside
Of course there is grace
And those halos of pain
Maybe he sang what he came here to sing

Chorus
Speed on to the next world
Speed on to the next life
Better I'm sure by far
Orpheus driven
Treasures given
Heal the most broken of hearts
Speed on, speed on, speed on

[The Chairman]

[The Chairman]

Marley can bring tears to my eyes. :O

Marley is the first thing I listen to every morning. He always perks me up.

I have to give the most credit to Sinatra, however, simply because he got me into music in the first place.

Maynard James Keenan
The man can go from screaming to singing like an angel in the blink of an eye and do it all well. A Perfect Circle has done wonders for his range and singing voice. The past few albums he's been involved with show how much he's grown as a vocalist.

Good call. :up: :up:

Maynard is definitely a unique vocalist with one of the greatest voices in music. Mer De Noms is quite possibly the best album that showcases his vocals in a beautiful way.

In other words I feel that Mer De Noms(A Perfect Circle) and 10,000 Days(Tool) are where he's at his best vocally.

I think he did an equally good job on Thirteenth Step and their cover album as well. He branched out and experimented with harmonies alot more. However, I think 3 Libras is my favorite piece of music he's ever sung.

[Archangel]

Tom Waits

Don't forget about Orestes. That's a beautiful song and he puts on an emotional singing performance.

3 Libras is another great song. Hell, the entire Mer De Noms album is a classic. :up:

[guitarsingerguy]

It's hard to pick a favorite song when you're talking about such a great band.

[Green Lantern]

Current male vocalist: Noone in today's rock scene compares to Brent Smith of Shinedown. That man is amazing.

Old School male vocalists: Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Freddie Mercury of Queen, and Layne Staley of Alice In Chains

Current female vocalist: Christina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil

Old School female vocalists: Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac, Ann Wilson of Heart.

His voice is really just another instrument. Have you heard Real Gone? A lot of the extra "percussion" is actually his voice.

[Sandman138]
