Top 5 Rock Vocalists

[Stringjam]

So who are your five favorite rock vocalists? This isn't a "best" thread or anything like that, just a little rundown of who tops your own list of kick-a** singers.

Paul Rodgers (still singing as good or better than ever, btw)

Chris Cornell

Myles Kennedy

Dug Pinnick

Hayley Williams (that vibrato..KILLS....too bad I don't really dig the band that much)

[BASSclary]

Im the best Rock-singer Vocalist lip singer  8-)

Chris Cornell would make my list. I've got to actually sit back and think about who else would be on mine. But how can Freddie Mercury not make it in the top 3.

That's why I made sure to point out that this isn't a "best" list, but a favs list.  Mercury was no doubt one of (if not THE) most technically accomplished singers in rock, but neither he, nor Queen have ever really been a band I cared to listen to.

I guess I should clarify:  I meant that how can he not make my top three.

Freddy Mercury, Mick Jagger and Bob Dylan

Now, I can't stand most of the music I used to listen to but this is how it might go now

Robert Plant can't stand Zeppelin much any more but he stays

There's so many good ones that those aren't the best ever but relevant to my current tastes
