Best Ever Singer?

[PennyNotSoWise]

AIBU to be a nosy caah and ask who you think the best singer the world has ever seen is?

Mine is Freddie Mercury. I've just seen the ad for Amazon music (I think that's what it was) where it's just his voice singing Somebody To Love, music drowned out, and Sweet.Baby.Jesus, it gave me goosebumps. If I didn't have alopecia, my hair would be standing on end, I tell you Wow, could that man sing!

I told DP and he said, "meh, he was alright."

Who are your favourites? And any particular song where they're at their best?

So,tomorrow which I know I won't be able to listen to live.

Hopefully catch up on sounds app

Thanks

Freddy Mercury
Adele
Celine Dion (not everyone's cup of tea but her voice is amazing even after all these years)

Celine dion

Pink is bloody incredible, also love Christina Aguilara’s voice. For men, I would have to say Freddie Mercury and Tom Jones.

Guy from Sparks - Russel Mail interesting voice

Darkness - Justine

I’ve loved this thread.
Just giving it a bump.

Yes, I forgot about the darkness

Pavarotti. the one and only

Freddie without a doubt.
Prince, but then he’s my all time favourite artist, so a bit biased.
Just throwing Tom Jones in the mix, I was never a fan, but his voice gets better with age.
Shirley Bassey had/has an incredible voice

Agree about Freddie Mercury, but I wasn't a Queen fan in their heyday. I was an avid Duran Duran fan, so I'm going to vote for Simon Le Bon too. I also really like Mark Lanegan's voice, which is about as different to FM as it gets.
Female artists - Anna Von Hauswolff, Skye Edwards and Angelique Kidjo

Whitney Houston
Elvis
Barbra Streisand
Maria Callas
Stevie Nicks
