re: Greatest male singer of all-time?
No one has said Marvin Gaye? How can that be.

Top 3 are:
Gaye
Buckley
Mercury

I don't think anyone could sing "Lilac Wine" the way Buckley did.

Nah... and I am a huge MJK fan


One of the greatest front men or lyricist of all time, possibly.

But singer wise, there are better out there

re: Greatest male singer of all-time?
Did any one say Freddie Mercury yet?


I'm sure this thread has been hijacked by now to dote on whatever LLOTOT is up in here.

ETA: I stand corrected.

But no one can compare to Freddie. He's got a great voice.

re: Greatest male singer of all-time?
I say no to Elton John and Stevie Wonder (someone mentioned him a page or two back). These two are/were amazing songwriters and entertainers, but not great singers.

+1 for Freddie Mercury, Johnny Cash and Sinatra being in contention for tops. Agree that Chris Cornell is up there, too.

Others who might be contenders depending on criteria:
Bing Crosby (smooth and cool)
Ozzy Osbourne (bat shite crazy but was
a very good rock singer)

Not quite elite level, but popped into my mind when thinking about Cornell... might be worthy of consideration for new school rockers: Scott Weiland.

re: Greatest male singer of all-time?
it's a draw between Jerry Reed and Billy Gibbons

and an Honorable Mention to John Oates . Attention whore Daryl Hall sabotaged his pornstache greatness.
