That's write the Philippines has a best singer all around the world
Indeed Philippines has the best voices in the whole wide world and I'm not saying this because I'm a Filipino. But many of our singers have been world renowned and have been recognized around the globe in every culture, in every genre I.E. lea Salonga of Les Miserables and Miss Saigon(Broadway), The Philippine Madrigal Singers who are well-known in the world of choral music for their unique style of singing while sitting in a semi circle but are still able to produce amazing harmonies and extreme dynamics that most standing choirs cannot execute well, also they are first choir in the world to win the European Grand Prix for choral singing twice (2007 & 1997), and lastly but definitely not the least, CHARICE PEMPENGCO, "The Most Talented Girl in the World." -Oprah.

There are very few philipino singers famous worldwide, the US has a lot of somewhat boring pop singers, a few good bands, but Britain is king, we don't just produce dull pop we have punched above our weight in all genres and definitely have the best rock bands
QUEEN! That's all that needs to be said... The greatest band on the planet... EVER! Most talented, most awesome, most eclectic, and absolutely the most phenomenal band ever to grace the Earth! Ever!

South Korea, officially the Republic of Korea, is a sovereign state in East Asia, constituting the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. What the hell?! Only 17th place!?!?!?!? I completely disagree with this. Have you heard South Korean singers? They have such beautiful vocals.
SOUTH KOREA SHOULD BE #1 they have one of the most talented people from Asia in K-Pop it's so diverse K-pop world domination!
This is so biased. Who the hell did this research! I disagree with South Korea being 20th. There are so many more strong singers in South Korea than even America OR UK, but as most of South Koreans don't sing in English and the fact that South Korean music isn't marketed globally, you can't really benchmark Korean music. What the West is exposed to is a tip of the iceberg. Even some of the world's best musicians are South Korea. South Koreans are extremely tenacious and don't settle for mediocre as a nation. There is so much competition and don't keep up with producing music regularly you just don't make it in South Korea. Hence most of Korean artists study music and singing and are way better than Americans who don't know technique. Phillipianions I do believe probablly have natural talent but here again, its because they sing English songs. I have watched singing competitions and how many are really good in America and UK. You can really count on your fingers Watch South Korean ...more
Some amazing singers are from Korea, search up Ailee, Hyorin and Eunji. There are so many that no one knows about. Even though some people say that they are all girl or guy groups, there are still amazing and talented singers. Of course, some get into the group with only looks but look at Winner or Big Bang. In both groups, they actually compose and write their own songs.

I wish the world could give Pakistan a chance of listening to their music too
Are you kidding Pakistani singers are actually the best, I don't like being bias because I haven't checked out some of the countries that are top on here but in this case Its Pakistan that's underrated. NFAK would have performances where English people would go to see even! And we need more of that today because Pakistani classic music is the best. And they are just killing it in every genre of music if I'm honest but sometimes there's such low exposure well, because its Pakistan. And that's sad.
No Pakistani singer is the same, each has own singing abilities but every one of them are bloody great at what they do. Pakistani music in general is one of the best in the world when you look past language difference, its amazing.
Pakistani singers are really Best, Indian and Pakistan Music is almost same But Pakistani singers are famous in India Because of their unique style.
