top 5 most distinctive vocalists

[annie]

Already mentioned but the next on my list would be Roy Orbison and Ronnie James Dio and each is different from the other.

These are the 5 singer that I think of most when it comes to hearing them and there being NO chance of thinking they are someone else.

Axl Rose
Justin Hawkins
Ozzy Osbourne
Eddie Vedder
Bon Scott

I will disagree with the axl rose one because I always have thought Shannon Hoon sounds like him

Wow, by the definition of distinctive in the 3rd post, there would really be a LOT of guys that fit that description. Too many to list only a top 5 (at least for me), so I'll give my favorite top 5 that I think are pretty distinctive:


Don Dokken
Geoff Tate
Paul Stanley
Ronnie James Dio
Rob Halford

what he said !

I like Shannon Hoon's vocals but I have to respectfully disagree.

 

[Lynch]

Yeah I agree with that. I don't see the similarity between Hoon and Rose at all. *shrug*

 

[Soot and Stars]

Whether you think "Thank God!" or not , I don't think anyone sounds like Billy Corgan!

 

[LG]

...Oh I am soooo tempted....

Of course I jest.

 

[Soot and Stars]

All I'm going to say is I would love to hear an example of anybody who sounds like him!

At times Raine Maida of Our Lady Peace kinda does.

Really? I'm trying to hear it now. It's funny because I actually was going to write in Raine Maida as well for his distinctive vocals!
