Countries With the Best Singers and Bands

The PHILIPPINES is indeed the country to beat in terms of VOCAL POWERHOUSE! Even the ordinary residents know how to sing and are actually not out of tune! As early as 2-year old, men and women, young and old, from hip hop, pop, rock, ballad, RnB, soul, upbeat, rap, etc., -a FILIPINO can really SING! The MUSIC CAPITAL of ASIA is... The PHILIPPINES!

There are many really good singers in the Philippines, and also all over the world, but the Philippines have powerful belters, and balladeers. The Philippines and other countries are just over looked by autotuned singers. Many filipinos are great at singing.

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.

Well, USA have the famous singers, but compare to Philippines, Filipino singers can perform live without the help of autotune, if you don't believe then watch THE VOICE KIDS Philippines, and you will found out that even the kids in the Philippines are better than the other famous singers in USA that is older.

Well for me, I think they base it NOT on how many famous singers you have, I think it was voted for how many people can sing in that country...Filipinos are indeed very good when it comes to singing, Philippines is very rich in music Culture... Almost every filipino can sing and some of them are really2 good.. I would say 8-10 filipinos can sing..Try to walk on the streets of manila, you will hear good voices, even 2 or 5 year old kid on the street can sing like pro... - Frank916

USA is have a good singers but Philippines is the land of the singers in the world.

People saying bad things about Philippine singers are clearly deaf, butthurt and jealous HAHA

Best singers of all.

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

BEST singers and bands of all time!

What how is the UK not top Queen, ELO, Rolling Stones, led zeppelin, Elton John, George Ezra, pink Floyd, Beatles, need I say more

"There are so many" no mate you listed 4 people

Three Days Grace!

Celine Dion and Michael Buble

*Sigh* Canada has Michael Buble...

Come on guys!
Children of Bodom, Yngwie J. Malmsteen, Jerusalem, Arch Enemy, Europe, Meshuggah, Blindside, Opeth... - rock2metal

Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, and At the Gates

We have best songs, and singers! We won ESC 6 times

Sweden had Jenny Lind. And Abba

Well AC/DC over 90 million albums sold. The Bee Gees over 80 million albums sold, Olivia Newton John 30 million albums sold. These 3 artists started there recording career in Australia. But other Australian music exports INXS, The Little River Band, Kylie Minogue, Men At Work have all sold over 20 million albums world wide... Some more Silverchair over 10 million albums sold, John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes ( solo ) & Cold Chisel "combined "and country singer Slim Dusty over 6 million album that all good for a country of 24 million people

Name 1 German singer and you can't really say any Swedish other than Zara Larson

I love sia!

Australia should be at the top 4

Ah yes! Australia has really good singers there too!

It is the first place

Voice kids Germany. That's all

They are strong singers

France Have the best singers!

Daft Punk, Phoenix, Air, Serge Gainsbourg, Supreme NTM, Edith Piaf, M83, Justice... France has a few good musicians

Zaz is one of best female singers in the world

Carmen opera from the French composer Bizet, is the most played in the world.
From Bizet to Daft punk passing by Edith Piaf and the French RAP (2nd in the world behind USA), France should be higher.

NZ singers are amazing! Such soulful tunes, I'm glad it's at 8th, but we need it higher!

Get NZ up the list! So many great singers!

New Zealand has so many great country singers and songwriters, like Lorde and Brooke Fraser. Most people in NZ write their own songs, or sing great songs in new ways

I don't understand why New Zealand is so far down when it rightfully should be up there at the top. Most people in NZ can sing and that's no exaggeration. The Maori culture has a big music influence. There's not a soul in NZ who doesn't know at least 2 people in their own family that can sing

India is great

India is top 10 on here just for its singers but India does not excel in terms of bands. Bands are not a thing there only singers are worshipped and revered. Bands are not popular, people make their mark by singing in Bollywood songs and doing solos on YouTube etc, that is popular there not bands.

Yes, K.S. Chithra makes India proud

K. S. Chithra is correct example

Mika is the best

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

They have the best singing shows and has the best music industries in ASIA. Definitely the best in Asia for music. Artists from America come out and collaborate on these South Korean music shows.

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.

The South Korea has so many talented singers, aside from singing the korean people is really good at dancing and acting..

DJ’s + listen to the voice

Just watch the voice of holland and you'll understand!

We have the best dj's who are known world wide and a lot of the shows the have in other countries begun in the netherlands example: voice of...

Just here a whole Dominique Van Hulst (Do), she is really good.

So many good singers here

Ireland singers has different voice compared to how they sing if you get what I'm saying

Where's Thin Lizzy & Black 47?

This is true. Bands were popular during the 90s and around that period Pakistan pop scene was flourishing. At present I think looking at everything Pakistan has to offer they have definitely made their mark and done justice to music that Pakistan always excelled in. Bands are very much alive in Pakistan. 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.

Pakistan is popular for the best singers. even some of pakistani singers go to india to sing because pakistani singers sing very well.

No one can match pakistan

Some music give me motivation

Opining and theme songs in the anime's are grea

Songs in the Anime are great! I listen to them everyday! Haha

I'm from Japan and I love there singing especially AKB48 and HEY! SAY! JUMP!

The best should be in first

Shakira people! Also Juanes and every singer of urban music is somehow related to them, I believe they need bigger appreciation

Colombia has Shakira the maximum Latin American female artist, and Juanes the top male artist with most Latin Grammys. Also rising stars are J Balvin, Maluma, & Karol G.

Rihanna

Makarevich, Tsoi, Shevchuk, Malinin, Krug, Gazmanov, Slutskiy, etc.

Where is that?

No singers in the world compare with the greatest singers of all time and they come from Italy or have Italian heritage. They're in a league of their own.

Ariana Grande is a famous singer who has been successful. She is italian.

Only 2 words... LUCIANO PAVAROTTI!

The average everyday person is blessed with a beautiful powerful voice. Almost all of them. Literally. Turkish people have great singing genetics.

They have perfect voices

This should be in the top

Mexico has great talent too!

Mexico has some of the most vibrant and enthusiastic music from around the world, and also have some of the best vocalist i’ve ever heard, Juan Gabriel Jesus, Vicente Fernandez, Pedro Infante, etc. can give you goosebumps from the passion of their voice.

My Tam, Phuong Vy, Dong Nhi, Thuy Chi, Min, Toc Tien, Ho Ngoc Ha & Son Tung M-TP, The new-generation V-Pop royalties are here to rock the global stage!

I don't know about new singers, but the singers from 1980s to 2000s are no doubt the best when it comes to traditional music (i.e. xuan que ta, mua xuan dau tien, duyen phan, etc)

Anh Khang, Pham Tan Khang, Vu Cat Tuong, Noo Phuoc Tinh & Ong Cao Thang, Thao Trang, Duy Khanh, Khanh Ly, Le Toan, and so many singers from Vietnam never ever give up to be on top of the world stage!
