I like male singers more when they are a part of a band like Mick and Bono, but real favourite male singers because of their voice, not really

David as I understand it you can vote for any singer classical or not, one of my choices was Placido Domingo and he's not a pop singer! |

1. Elvis Presley. 2. Stevie Wonder. 3. Billy Fury.

I need to add Mick Jagger, but I really can't take any of the other three off my list.
Mick Jagger. Such a unique voice.
Whoops, I forgot Al Green. God, I love him, too.
Who started this thread? Bah!

No I think I'll plump for Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and anr - possibly Marvin Gaye but not with max conviction.
Re women - forgot Eva Cassidy - someone with perhaps even more control of pitch than Dusty and such a purity of tone. |
