Re: Vote Ask MusicRadar: who is the greatest lead singer of all time?
Freddy was a great singer but I'm not big on Queen's music so I find it hard to vote for him. He's got a great voice but to be honest it never hit me like some others. I think it's lame that Bono and Eddie Vedder aren't on the list. Not that I'd vote for either one but it's kinda bush they're not even up there.
I honestly think had the original Gn'R stuck to what they did best, which was kickass rock n' roll and cranked out an epic balled every few years Axl Rose would be the greatest lead singer ever. His voice is so unique and distinct not to mention fucking awesome.
Obviously I really like Bono's voice as well but Axl just had something nobody else did.

I agree Bono should totally be on that list too. He's not my favourite of all time, but he's definately the key to U2's success IMO and stronger than a lot of them, hell, just U2's status as one of the more major bands ever should get him a nomination.
Axl's my favourite on that list, bottom line is few can sing like him, and he just has that sound, there's nothing else the same.
Re: Vote Ask MusicRadar: who is the greatest lead singer of all time?
Bono? What makes that list a joke is the fact Cornell isn't on it.
I love how its so lopsided in Axl's favor. It shows that the only place the link is at is the various GNR forums.
Agreed. That was a glaring ommsion as well but I'm not a huge Soundgarden fan so I didn't feel it was up to me to fight for his cause. That's your job and well done I might add.

Also I think brian johnson is way better than bon scott...but don't tell anyone that or i'll be hunted down 
Re: Vote Ask MusicRadar: who is the greatest lead singer of all time?
Bono not on the list? You have to be kidding me.....the epitome of a frontman. Great voice, passion, rock star charisma, songwriter, full of shit, ego, one of the biggest bands ever...wtf! What is the criteria for being a great frontman? He has it all and wipes the floor with 90% of that list.
