I voted other with the great Tom Waits in mind. Love the poetic phrasings and the music always gets me, but the smoke and alcohol driven voice is not my cup of tea in this case.

you know very little of Peter Hammill if you think he only yells and whispers. he can sing absolutely beautifully if needed. I recommend to listen to "This Side of the Looking Glass" from his album "Over", for example

at the stage this thing is.. I'd put Peter Gabriel on the list, he's not exactly an opera singer.

Hogarth definitely is a love or hate man. for me it is hate. maybe he is technically a better singer than Fish, but he can't shine a candle to him because of his lack of expression. with Fish gone Marillion completely lost that little bit of interest I had in them (I was never a big fan though)

Because Hogarth is in the list! Anyway...
 
If you really think he can't sing with emotion, try these songs:
 
"Living With The Big Lie"
"Neverland"
"This Strange Engine"
"The Party"
"Three Minute Boy"
 
... Hell, listen to any of his songs!

And, btw, what's Phil Lynott doing in that list?Confused

David Gilmour .I like how he sings,imagine if I reemplace the voice of Gilmour with the voice of Simmons ,,,What is the result?......please say something

What was that about 'art in the eye of the beholder'......LOL 


I sometimes wonder because of  my eventual acceptance of Mr Lee's er em voice, whether with familiarity my brain was turning off the pain receptors to avoid further harm......Evil%20Smile

Steve Howe definitely sings, but I like his voice, it isnt bad at all. Another person not belonging here is Brian May, who has a great voice.
I have the solist album of Steve Howe,that could be better if he use a real singer,and Brian May  is good in the chorus of Queen BUT NOT great   like a solist,,,and he call  Paul Rodgers for sing in Queen .

Oh God... she nearly ruined Feels Good to Me... I would have voted for her in a second.


Oddly enough I really like her half-an-octave range (or less), husky voice on Feels Good To Me, but thinks she stinks on the Bruford Rock Goes To College DVD doing the same songs.
