Nah, that’s a nice list…. I like lists but I’m not good with rankings and deciding a rank scale…..but this should be a fun thread, i look forward to the posts….cheers!

EDIT: Okay, at second glance I saw Levine. But okay, that’s allowed…..you like what you like…..

A very interesting list! I love Karen Carpenter's voice...nice to see her included. Same with Jim Croce...huge fan of his music also!

I actually wasn't a huge fan of Barry White's voice...not that it wasn't great ( and it was certainly distinctive). It just wasn't my cup of tea. Having said that, I love his "Loves Theme" so much. What a great piece of music that is...it just takes me back to being a kid in the 1970s every time!

😃😃😃 That was great! Thank you for posting that. I'd never seen that before. FYI, I loved David Letterman's show on NBC (I actually remember the morning show he had with NBC back in 1980, if I remember correctly). However, I never really watched his CBS show. That was funny!

Ok Madonna seems like Madonna is gonna rank high on our final list. Remember these lists are to make one final from the movie chat.org looking better than the one from Rolling Stone.

So with your points and mine
Madonna has 16 points
Freddie Mercury with your points and mine ads 19 points
Michael Jackson has 17 points so far.
Whitney Houston so far has 11 points

I just can't narrow my list down to 10. I'd even have a hard time trying to name "Top 10 rock singers," "Top 10 Country singers," etc.

Here is one of my favorite vocal performances, so I'll just include this one now: "Down By The Salley Gardens" by Orla Fallon. I believe she was one of the original "Celtic Women." I just love her version of this:

It's hard task. Almost impossible. It's almost hard as picking top 10 songs.
