Best male and female singing voices

[bucks]

Nat King Cole
Judith Durham, Aussie girl from the original Seekers. Beautiful clear voice.

Adele is a shouter and not a singer. Dunno any Beyonce songs and don't care. Plant is good if a bit screechy.

I agree about Adele. Less is more sometimes and she is a bit much

I love Adele's voice. It's beautiful but doesn't move me at all. I've talked to a lot of people who feel the same way. Weird.

I know people who love her. I try not to be rude to them, being a gentleman as I am. However, Skyfawwwwl is just that, awfowwwwl. Cheesy cockney crap. The MacDonalds of music. Sad to see so many fooled by pointless, money-making nonsense. Put it this way. If she didn't exist, would the world be worse off? Of course not.

i think people are posting their favourite artists , plenty of singer/songwriters can easily be mistaken for good singers because the song suits their voice , Elton/Adele/Paul Weller etc
my votes go to Matt Monroe and Aretha , closely followed by Luther , Helen Reddy

Bobby Womack
Ray Charles

Fay Simmons
Esther Phillips
Nina Simone
Roberta Flack

I defy you to say any one of them on the list has just been posted because they are a personal fave

Every single one of them are the equivelent of Messi in vocalist terms...absolute legends of their trade

I may be biased but any list that doesn't have Luther in it is fundamental flawed. That my view anyway ☺
