Greatest singing voice of all time

So this is a fricking AL thread?

Nice sucker job w/ the thread title

Not the best technically but bill withers has the most pleasing voice for me personally

For me its unquestionably Elvis Presley.

Gonna go full blown gay here and just say that the man had the voice of an angel. Certain songs he did gives me chills every single time I hear them .

From there I'd go: Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Freddie Mercury. Not necessarily in that order

male = Daryl Hall,

female = Streisand

Of all time? You have to go back to the real vocalists - Andy Williams, Perry Como. Modern times - John Berry, Martina McBride, Roberta Flack, Dionne Warwick.

Ray Charles, without question.

are you being specific to the rock & roll genre ? Because there are a lot of candidates out there in a lot of generations :

Sinatra
Andy Williams
Robert Goulet

Domingo
Pavarotti
Marilyn Horne

Streisand
Reba McIntyre
Whitney Houston

We could go on forever.

Susan Tedeschi

Geoff Tate of Queensrÿche

Cotton, Bill Withers is a good one. Great voice. Very pleasant

For rock it's Chris Cornell for me, overall it's Andrea Bocelli. I don't like opera but that dude has pipes.
