Poll: 22 Greatest Voices in the Past 20 Years

[yellowperil]

There was an MTV2 special about the 22 greatest voices. Poll will be up shortly with the contenders in the order they were ranked. Personally I was surprised Jeff Buckley wasn't included but then again this is MTV.

The man was a poet, not a singer.

Well, it didn't ask for "most beautiful voice." The poll asks for the "greatest voice." I think that part of what makes Bob Dylan's music great is that he sings it 🙂

I'm just waiting for someone to post saying Happatai ("Yatta!") or Daler Mehndi ("Tunak Tunak Tun")

 

[datalink7]

What about Neil Young? (now that I've thought about it this is probably my vote)

Good god, Bjork ? wtf

Eminem wtf! Jewel... sigh.. omg Alicia Krap.. whoTF came up with this?

If its vocal capability/skill alone, its Mariah Carey.

I think 2Pac has an aswesome voice for his style of music, and his lyrics are always awesome.

 

[HappyPuppy]

I'd vote for Red Skelton, but you didn't put him in your poll.

Definitely should be on there.. He is very talented and has an impressive range.

I was also thinking james Hetfield should be mentioned; his voice is just so awesome.

Of course no one can even come close to Daniel Weyandt of Zao. I'd like to see any "pop" singer try to sing like that for more than 10 seconds without shredding their larynx.

 

[McPhreak]

I think the guy that narrates the movie previews has the greatest voice ever.

 

[eplebnista]

Mariah Carey

 

[bolomite]

for rap, DMX
