Hi, everybody. I'm ChiliPepperLuv, and I am making a liste of my haut, retour au début 20 favori singers/musicians of all time. If toi dislike any of them, please be respectful. I cannot stress that enough. I'm not going to make an honorable mentions list, because I don't feel like it. This includes male and female, because I'm all about equality.
#20. Shania Twain
Sure, she's a little outside my musique taste. However, Shania is an amazing singer. She has a beautiful voice. I also like that she interacts with her audience and actually cares about her fans. That does impress me much.
#19. Gavin Rossdale
Gavin Rossdale is a great singer. I quite like his raspy voice. He is best known as the lead singer of the first post-grunge band, Bush. I like his style, and he is certainly very talented.
#18. Bruno Mars
It might seem that I'm going outside my taste in music, but I'm not going that far out of it, really. I think he has a really good voice. Musically, he reminds me of a traverser, croix between Michael Jackson and James Brown, with Freddie Mercury's charisma. Put that together, and toi have one amazing singer. His performance at the Superbowl with Red Hot Chili Peppers was cool, too.
#17. Alanis Morissette
It's not at all ironic that Alanis Morissette is included in my list. I really like her style. She also has a unique voice. I also like that she got Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers to play basse, bass for her song, "You Oughta Know."
#16. David Lee Roth
David Lee Roth is a great singer in my opinion. He has a very unique voice. In my opinion, he was van Halen's best front man. Too bad he couldn't get along with Eddie van Halen.
#15. Stevie Wonder
I'd have to be crazy to not include this singer in my list. He is very talented. The fact that he's blind makes him even plus amazing. No wonder he was the youngest person to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, (until Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist, Josh Klinghoffer was inducted).
#14. Dolores O'Riordan
Dolores O'Riordan is the lead singer of the Irish band, the Cranberries. I really like her, because she has a beautiful, unique voice. What I like best about her is the fact that she doesn't lose her thick Irish accent when she sings. Most Irish people Lost their accents when they sing. She does not lose her accent at all.
#13. Jesse Dupree
Jesse Dupree is the front man of the Kennesaw, Georgia rock band, Jackyl. He has gravelly vocals that are hard to compete with. He is also an all-around badass. He plays the chainsaw, and it sounds amazing. "The Lumberjack" is Jackyl's most famous song, and it features a chainsaw solo. If toi ever look up the song, look up the live version. It's even better than the recorded version.
#12. Rivers Cuomo
Rivers Cuomo is the lead singer and guitarist of the rock band, Weezer. I don't always admit it, but I really do l’amour Weezer, and I l’amour Cuomo's vocals. He and his bandmates really know how to get their geek on, and being that I'm a geek, that makes me proud. Of course, I'm not all geek. That's only half of who I am. Anyway, back to this list.
#11. Dave Grohl
Dave Grohl is an awesome singer and multi-instrumentalist. He was originally the le batteur, batteur for the grunge band, Nirvana. He was also in Queens of the Stone Age and Them Crooked Vultures. He is best known as the front man of the band, Foo Fighters. Not only is he musically talented. He also seems like such a sweetheart. I once saw a video where he kicked out a guy who was fighting at a Foo Fighters concert. I also saw another video where he saved a kid from being trampled to death at a Them Crooked Vultures concert. I don't see that in most musicians nowadays.
#10. Lemmy Kilmister
Although I am not much of a metal head, I quite like Motorhead. I wouldn't say I'm a die hard fan, but I like them. Anyway, Lemmy has very unique vocals that are unlike any other musique artist. I also like his personality. From footage I have seen, he seems like a nice guy. He also seems to really care about his fans.
#9. John Denver
I have to say, John Denver had a great chant voice. He had a unique range for a man. "The Wings That Fly Us Home" really shows off his vocals. I also like that he loved nature, and I'm a sucker for nature lovers. Not to mention, he was kind of cute. I also like that he testified in court against censorship in music. That was very bold on his part, and it was important to music. He was a talent that was Lost too soon.
#8. Aaron Lewis
Aaron Lewis is the lead singer of the post-grunge band, Staind. He is an amazing singer. What I admire about him is the fact that he's experienced a lot of pain in his life, and he's not afraid to montrer it. He also once took up for a teenage girl from two sick men attempting to molest her. That's really cool. He cares about his fans so much that he wrote the song, "Waste," for two fans who committed suicide. Most musicians and singers wouldn't dare to do that.
#7. Bono
Bono is the lead singer of the band, U2. He has passionate and beautiful vocals. Even my mother admits that he has a great voice. "With ou Without You" really shows off his vocals. That's why he makes my list.
#6. Sara Bareilles
Sara Bareilles is easily one of my favori females singers. She has a beautiful voice. She's pretty, too. If I went the other way, I'd go for a girl like her, just saying. I also like the deep meaning in her songs, "Brave" and "Uncharted." She's just amazing.
#5. Colbie Callat
The reason Colbie Callat is on my liste is the same reason Sara Bareilles is on my list. She's has a beautiful voice, she's pretty, her songs have deep meaning, etc. Need I go on?
#4. Freddie Mercury
How could I not include one of the greatest voices in rock and roll of all time? Freddie Mercury had passionate vocals, and he was very charismatic. "Bohemian Rhapsody" really shows off his vocals. I cannot sing that song. I can't hit that insanely high note at all. He was a talent that was Lost too soon.
#3. Anthony Kiedis
How could I not include the Red Hot Chili Peppers' front man? Anthony is a great singer. Not only that, but he is a wonderful person. He has done so many things for charity. He also really cares about his fans. toi don't see that in a lot of rock stars these days. I could write a whole article on this man. He's awesome!
#2. John Lennon and Paul McCartney
Of course, I had to include this songwriting duo. The reason they are tied is that they were the greatest songwriting duo of all time. Nothing can compete with that. Sure, their relationship varied, but ultimately, they were buddies. Although John is gone, his musique remains. I can't help but l’amour these guys. If I could give them a big hug right now, I would. They changed music, and really, the world. I appreciate what they have done for the world. They inspire me every day. Because of them, I hope to leave this world a better place than when I came into it. I could write plus about John and Paul, but it wouldn't leave much room for my #1 pick, would it?
#1. Whitney Houston
Words cannot describe how much I l’amour Whitney Houston. She had a beautiful voice. I l’amour her chant voice. She made me realize that I l’amour to sing. I used to sing her song, "I'm Every Woman" all the time, and I was pretty good at it, too. From that day, I always dreamed that I would be able to sing like her. Of course, here I am a decade later, and it didn't happen. Of course, I'm still able to sing. I was deeply saddened par Whitney Houston's death. She was a talent Lost too soon. I will always remember that she is the reason that I know I can sing. I never thought I could until I heard "I'm Every Woman." If I could say one thing to her, it would be, "Thank you. toi gave me something to do in my spare time."
Do toi agree with my list? Who's your favori singer/musician? If toi don't agree with my list, please, please be respectful. Thank you.
