Who's the best rock singer ever
 

I was channel Hopping last night and saw that "Queen in concert in Montreal" was on Sky Arts 1, I watched it and I've been thinking since who is the best rock singer ever. Think Freddie must be well up there with the best of them, he's certainly near the top of my list, his stage presence was electric. another of my favourites is Paul Rogers former front man with Free, who know actually does a lot of work with May, Taylor and Deakin. So who's your all time rock favourite

I think we have done this one before Jaysay but i`ll give the same answer as you.........Freddie Mercury.....Untouchable

Re: Who's the best rock singer ever
 

I have a very short attention span pipin:rolleyes:, if you have Sky keep your eye on Sky Arts they have some fantastic stuff on and I'm sure that Queen concert will be shown again, well worth a look

Re: Who's the best rock singer ever
 

I'd go for Don Henley of Eagles fame. That's what my mood says today anyway.
I'd best stop editing now as I'll end up listing a million and one of my favourite singers.

If we were to go down the proper rock n roll route it would be Roy Orbison as no one comes close.

No contest it just has to be Elvis,,,,,,,followed by Queen

Re: Who's the best rock singer ever
 

Well of course Elvis was fantastic but there was also Roy Orbison. He had a big range of voice and he always made it look so easy - just stood there and did it.

Re: Who's the best rock singer ever
 

If we are on about REAL rock music its got to be between Roger Daltery,Ian Gillan & Robert Plant.Three of the best screamers ever.

Re: Who's the best rock singer ever
 

Like Ian Gillan Maxwell, think my favourite was Sweet Child in Time, he really did reach top scream in that:D
