And tom Jones so low down is ridiculous for his talent.

At least 3 of my ten are in, Tom, Harry Belafonte and chritsty Moore

Totally agree on Tom Mr Genie. I included him in my Top Ten.
Never really liked his music but what an amazing voice. Had he been in a rock band. ????

Who the fuck is dan fogelberg btw

I read somewhere that "Run for the roses" is or was the biggest selling song about a sports event.
He met his old lover at the grocery store.

One of the enjoyable side shows in organising these polls is looking up the names of people I’ve never heard of via a search engine.

Was I really the only one to have Layne Staley in my top 10?

I would’ve voted for him but I couldn’t be arsed joining in. Even 2 votes would be a travesty

As i say, not a fan of theirs, it's just something i've heard said over the years.
But it's good to get another opinion.

With regards to the DLR/Hagar thing ... We have always said they lost Diamond Dave, and settled for just a singer.

I agree with Foggy , he sounds generic in Van Halen, and I find it hard to think of him as the singer in his first band, Montrose, where he sounded immense.Maybe their harder edged music suited his voice more?

I thought the first three VH albums were very fresh and exciting. WACF being the best of three brilliant albums.
“And the Cradle will Rock” is a classic.
I lost touch with them after that but still enjoy “Why can’t this be love” when I hear it.

I knew that really but there is a couple of singers have appeared so far and I didn't know who they were.

BS is usually Bruce Springsteen, occasionally Boz Scaggs, can be Black Sabbath in a different context, and is interchangeable with Bull Shit if it refers to Bob Seger.

I love I and II and plenty of songs on all the rest through 1984. They really did have a great run. And were dynamite live.

I’ve got the first three or four albums on vinyl still.
I was just looking up I and II and forgotten how many great tracks were on each.
As I said earlier they were so vibrant and fresh sounding back then.

4 people had Tom Jones, not me but a good choice he had a great voice!
I remember this one, the Welsh men can sing
