Undoubtedly number one. Not only the voice and breath control, but he had a unique ability to understand a song, make it come to life and to make it his own.
That voice..I just melt. Just beautiful. A voice which builds a protective wall around me whenever I listen to him. I adore this gentleman. Pleased Ol' Blue Eyes made your top two!
Incomparable. The best vocal actor of all time.
He was very special. He had "IT". He should have made it big time as an actor in top rated American movies and shows. He had the talent, voice, good lucks, movement and admiration of many around the world.
Elvis completes the sound with his gospel roots... He made popular real with this soulful gospel/blues background. No one did that in popular music making it unique.
Despite his death he will still live on as a music legend and a talented man.
Anyone who likes an awesome baritone, but hasn't heard Carlos Marin is missing an incredible treat. Find IL DIVO on YouTube if you want a quick listen. As a group these guys are the best. As individuals, their voices are full of emotion and perfection. Highly recommend you give Carlos a listen soon! SANDRA
Carlos blows me away when he rears back and sings out with that magnificent voice. I love him in the Il Divo group. I love his ever present smile, sometimes in the middle of a note he smiles at the audience, particularly the ladies. He has made me an opera fan as well as the cross over tunes Il Divo sings. Fantastic!
Piero has such a rich and full voice.,.and his voice comes from deep within him. Every song he sings is so beautiful and powerful. Absolutely an awesome singers and I could listen to him, song after song. He is getting even better and he just turned 20!
Beautiful, powerful raw voice. Surpasses all others on this list with ease.
Eddie has a great passionate voice, he should be higher up!
Beautiful, emotional, meaningful voice.
The most beautiful lyric baritone of the last 50 years between baroque music and modern composers. A fantastic, intelligent actor and a very handsome man. The best Don Giovanni of his time and really great in all his other different roles from Ulisse to Billy Budd. A specialist in Mozart as well as he perfectly interprets songs from Schubert to "songs his father taught him". He taught me to love songs of Ralph Vaughan Williams as well as songs of his home in the North of England.
Sir Thomas is able to sing operettas and musical in the same high quality as opera what is rather unusual for an opera singer and shows his talent and versatility.
When he first came over to the UK at the age of 22 his exceptional baritone voice, along with his good looks, stunned so many people. Although not operatically trained his voice is a pure gift and he sings with such sensitivity and emotion.
His earlier work, particularly his own compositions, show a penetrating observation and keen insight into human nature and he expresses this very poetically in his lyrics. He has touched so many.
His recent work is more experimental and multi layered and he uses political and other events as a springboard to something else he is trying to convey and he uses his voice in a different way
This is the guy, his vocals have evolved a lot. Listen to cemetery gates, Cowboys from hell, 5 Minutes alone, I'm Broken, Floods, Great Southern Trendkill, A New Level, Domination, Medicine Man, Primal concrete Sledge. Phil is my favorite metal vocalist. If you don't listen to metal Pantera will get you there.
He was great as a tenor. When tenors went out of fashion he dropped down to baritone and had more number 1 hits then anyone in history.
One of the greatest baritones ever.
I grew up in the 60s so I'm a big Jim Morrison fan also. Crosby just made singing so effortless.
Yeah! I mean just Listen to the range of things he expressed.. From "shadow play" to "dead souls" to"transmission ", notice how his voice is keeping up with the band even at the heaviest moments. Incredible really.
