Favorite Male Vocalists...

[rbs3676]

Ahhh....the men...

My favorite male singer is the man with a thousand voices, Robin Zander ...he has, without a doubt, such a magnificent voice...I never, never, never tire of listening to him.

Tom Petty is fabulous because he is so distinct...kinda like Stevie in a way, because when he is singing, you KNOW it's Tom...and, in my home, Tom is king...I dont think a day goes by when he isn't played. Love that man.
Also, can there be a better band than the Heartbreakers???

There are some tracks where George Michael can turn me on like no other...and, in that same vein, so can Michael McDonald...but it really depends on the song...

Charlie Sexton does it for me every time...always has...he is just the dirt to me...he is so incredibly talented...

The late Layne Staley (Alice In Chains) vocals always moved me just in the same way that Scott Weiland can...incredible pipes, those boys...

Michael Stipe gets props cause he is like a female Patti Smith to me...very emotional, very to the core...gotta love Michael...

John Lennon, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Frank Sinatra simply because they were voices of a generation at various peaks and valleys within the last 50 years of pop music...

Of course, Lindsey Buckingham...what can I say? I love the man....

Last, but certainly not least, Joey Ramone had such a distinct vocal style and he was one hell of a sweet guy to me and everyone that I ever introduced to him, and I think I sing the loudest when the Ramones are on, so he certainly has a place on my list...Gabba Gabba Hey!
