Top 10 Singers for Slow Paced Vocals

Slow paced vocals? It may sound new. I don't know if it's a good word. But anyway, what I meant by slow paced vocals is that these singers have good vocals when they sing songs slowly. Unlike rappers or screamers, some of these singers may scream or sing in another type of vocals, but they can also sing at a slow pace.

So I have tried my best to make this list. Please feel free to add your favorite slow paced vocal singers. Vote if you like, comment if you have anything to say.
The Top Ten
1 K.S. Chithra Krishnan Nair Shantakumari Chithra, often credited as K. S. Chithra or simply Chithra, is an Indian playback singer from Kerala. Chithra also sings Indian classical, devotional, and popular music.

She sang some of the greatest slow songs, and she is really awesome.

2 Art Garfunkel Arthur Ira "Art" Garfunkel is an American singer, poet and actor. He partnered in his earlier years with Paul Simon in the folk rock duo Simon & Garfunkel.

Legendary folk singer. Most of his songs are slow-paced, and those are good.

Best singer of all time, period.

3 David Coverdale David Coverdale is an English rock singer most famous for his work with Whitesnake, the commercially successful hard rock band he founded in 1978. Before Whitesnake, Coverdale was the lead singer of Deep Purple from late 1973 to 15 March 1976, when he resigned from the band and established his solo career.

I so much agree. He sounds very good on slow songs (and on fast ones, too).
Deep Purple - Soldier of Fortune, Mistreated (live 1974 California), The Gypsy
Whitesnake - Ain't No Love in the Heart of the City, Here I Go Again, Judgement Day, Sailing Ships
Coverdale - Last Note of Freedom, Only My Soul

Now he can sing in high-pitched vocals. He can even scream. But believe me, he can sing really well in slow-paced vocals. For example, in Here I Go Again, from the beginning, he can sing really well.

Amazing slow voice, particularly in "Is this Love" - so sexy and cool.

4 Bryan Adams Bryan Guy Adams is a Canadian singer, songwriter, record producer, guitarist, photographer, philanthropist and activist.

Oh yes, definitely - Heaven, (Everything I Do) I Do It for You, Please Forgive Me, Do I Have to Say the Words?, Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman.
"(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" was overplayed, and this is a bit annoying, but it's a great ballad.

5 Klaus Meine Klaus Meine is a German vocalist, best known as the lead singer of the hard rock band Scorpions. He and guitarist Rudolf Schenker are the only two members of the group to appear on every Scorpions album.

Guys, he sang some of the greatest slow songs, and he is really awesome.
Scorpions - Still Loving You, Holiday, Send Me an Angel, Wind of Change.

11 Mark Knopfler Mark Freuder Knopfler is a British singer, songwriter, guitarist, record producer and film score composer. He is best known for being the frontman of the British band Dire Straits.

I definitely agree with this. He also has one of the most relaxing voices I know - try Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits (and many other songs).

12 Jeff Buckley

Somewhat overrated. His dad was much better.
