2,3,4, five!

[howyadoin]

I'd say that David Gilmour barely counts as a frontman.

The answer to all 3 of these is Perry Farrell.

1. Who is the greatest creative force (songwriting-wise)? I'll say Plant

2. Who is the best sounding vocalist (recorded album)? Ramone

3. Who is the best live performer? :confused:

The answer to 1. is Lennon & McCartney. The 2 men wrote the soundtrack that is life . No other force on the planet can do what those 2 could as song writers. I worship AXL but those 2 get that.

2. Who is the best sounding vocalist (recorded album)? RamoneThere really should've been a Ramon Ramone.

[Aubergine~!]

Wasn't this on the Rumbles board for some reason? Or was that rock guitarists?

1. Who is the greatest creative force (songwriting-wise)?

Of those listed, McCartney.

2. Who is the best sounding vocalist (recorded album)?

Mercury.

3. Who is the best live performer?

Jagger. Because when I think rock frontman, I think Mick Jagger.

Broken is more like it. besides attacking his fans and writing metal songs, what has he done exactly?


Farrell not only has amazing stage presence but he wrote songs for Jane's Addiction, then completely changed gears writing for Porno for Pyros, then became a successful DJ, and compiled his own solo record and recently established a new band Wedding Party, that sounds different from anything he has done before.

I am sure there are tons of metal singers who sing like Hetfield, is there anyone you have ever heard who sings like Farrell?

1. Robert Plant
2. Freddie Mercury
3. Hard to say since I don't have experience with some of them live. But I'd probably say Freddie Mercury here as well.

[leonaozaki]

Howlin' Wolf wins in all three categories. Seriously.

[LiNo]

No Liam Gallagher...?

Strange.

[Adam C]

What? Two pages and no one has mentioned Neil Diamond? This thread has completely jumped the shark!

[Trey]

Best metal singer - Ozzy Ozbourne hands down.

Don't know about live.

[ImpulseUCF]

is there anyone you have ever heard who sings like Farrell?Most have had good enough sense not to try to. Why on Earth anyone would want to is beyond me.

Of those listed, Plant is my favorite, but I think Mercury would have to take it. Well, maybe Plant's early Zep stuff for the live one, but that's a close one.
