Top Ten Male Singers with the Best Falsetto
Barry Alan Crompton Gibb is a British singer, songwriter and record producer who rose to worldwide fame as a co-founder of the group Bee Gees, one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed groups in the history of popular music. Barry's falsetto is simply unforgettable. Barry has the richest, clearest, greatest falsetto I have ever see, absolute perfection. Nobody deserves number 1 more then him
Robin and Maurice's falsettos too were special in their own right. Robin had a distinctive high pitched falsetto which can easily be heard in the Bee Gees songs,
Maurice's falsetto on the other hand was more in the middle but more similar to Barry then Robin, Maurice's falsetto did not stand out like Barry's and it was not as high pitched as Robin's, but it perfectly balanced the Bee Gees sound.
The Bee Gees were the masters of falsetto hands down, nobody could do falsetto like The Bee Gees did.
Over 70, with more than 50 years singing and he still has it! Barry and his brothers dominated the charts in the 70s and if his 2 brothers were still alive, I'm betting they would still be recording. Barry still packs the venues when he does a concert! His falsetto was lead on so many of their songs and he can still sing them today! Barry deserves to be Number 1!

Dimash is best known as a contestant of Chinese talent show "Singer 2017" where he was declared a runner-up. He is also known for possessing a wide vocal range, measuring up to 5 octaves.

Dimash has nothing to do in this category, because he has not a fake, but a VOICE with volume and vibrato ! And all the same - he is the best !
Falsett Dimash is a separate conversation. This register sounds like a full-fledged, voluminous voice colored with vibrato. Dimash has no equal here!

I saw him live in concert when he was in his early 70s and he was fantastic! And I love the musical "Jersey Boys". The guys I saw at different performances who were chosen to play the part of Frankie Valli, were fabulous, both singing those high, high notes and their acting was great.
Guys, Frankie Valli when he was with the Four Seasons is the coolest falsetto you would ever hear. It adds a particular flare. Sherry, Big Girls Don't Cry, Walk Like a Man, Working My Way Back to You, Rag Doll, Opus 17, Dawn (Go Away), the list goes on forever.
