I'm going by Angels, Pruni - it's a really hard one to sing but he manages it.

Paul Simon has a nice voice and writes great songs but it was Art G who had The Voice.

Agree about Kenny Rogers - talking of whom, Dolly Parton is another.

And agree about Carole King, Cf.

Elvis good or not, Cf????

Pruni, I think it was Simon Cowell who complained about people trying Angels on X factor or whatever "because Robbie makes it sound easy, and it isn't"!

Great thread btw

erm - and I can't type sense can I ?!

Kate Bush

Pruni I also agree with Tracy Thorne and Jarvis, really like his voice.

There are lots of people I can think of who can really sing, but I couldn't possibly bring myself to mention them as I really don't like their music

MrsJohnCusack · 01/02/2007 21:07

and FFS I forgot to put Elvis, who was first on my list

I am v.uncoordinated today
