Yeah my Boy George comment was mostly tongue in cheek but at the same time he def had his own uniqueness then.

I do think Boy George had a great voice. If you listen to all of Colour By Numbers, you can't argue.

Rob Halford ? But he was gay.

No matter what the question is, the correct answer is always Westerberg..Westerberg..Westerberg!

I'd throw Phil Collins in there for Genesis at some point. Not the best, but among the best, after Mercury and a couple of others imo.

David Byrne
Mercury is a cool arse dude but I am just not a fan of Queen. 80s music is just the worst.

I vote Mercury or Hutchence.

I don't like David Lee Roth, but I guess he does deserve to be in the discussion. And Freddy Mercury did at least have a couple of years in the 80's, though his best work was in the 70's... so he should still qualify, and he was one of the greats-- without doubt.
For rock, I'd put Axl Rose & James Hetfield... and probably Bon Jovi over Vince Neil and other hair metal guys.
Robert Smith & Morrissey were probably the best front men of that genre. Honorable mention might go to Ian McCulloch of Echo & The Bunnymen-- he had potential, but I'd say he was still 2nd tier... I sort of think him the British alternative music/new wave doppleganger of Rick Ocasek, who is also 2nd tier imo.
I don't think anyone mentioned Sting from his The Police days. I'd rate him above Stipe, but that's a matter of personal preference.
eta: Bono should be in the list of the best, too.
