I would leave that spot for Peter Gabriel with Hammill right behind.

Yeah, it's all a matter of opinion. Hammill is an amazing vocalist. My second
favorite to Gabriel to be exact.

Now, unless you're DEAF you can't deny that, can yer?


Rubbish. Caertiainly I can hear some Gabriel Influence in Fish's voice. I can also hear a fair bit of Hammill's voice on Fish's voice. Above all though Fish sounds like Fish much more than either.

Lyrically it's abundantly clear that Fish was influenced by Hammill far more than he was by Gabriel (almost not at all).

Looks like you're gonna have to have your ears removed then Snowy!

He can try!Clown

Leave it to you, to be negative.....forget about EVERYTHING ELSE I said in the post.....but chop off the ears....thats one for the record books

I know how you hate a differing opinion to your own, but thats what it is!!! Nowt negative about it!!

Did I say Hammill sucks? No, but that would be negative.

Sorry i can't be one of your followers.

I'm not being negative - I agree with you about Hammill and My Room. Also about Jon Anderson - I'm amazed that he can still hit the high notes, when many of his contemporaries voices' have declined.

I was trying to make the point that you always have a negative opinion of people who don't agree with you. I know people who think Frank Sinatra can't sing - does that mean they should have their ears removed?

I believe he was referring to me Chop old fruit!

Okay, once again time for some positive Hammill talk.

Here we go then: he's a GREAT singer.

Hey, where is the poll. This subject is in the Prog Poll section.

I wish to execute my democratic right to vote!

I love Hamills voice, but of course Hammill would never win Idols or something.
Actually he cannot sing at all, but then again the most popular voice in prog are strange voices of men (women not so applicable) who actually cannot sing.

I thought he might be referring to both of us. I have also had one or two "disagreements" with Mr ProgLover as well.
