In your opinion who has the most powerful voice?

[wednesday]

I think Nightwish's Tarja has a very powerful voice.

But I prefer Robert Plant for vocal flexibility and ability, which is powerful in itself, but in a different way.

Nightwish died when tarja left, she has a fantastic voice regardless of what microphone delay she uses.
I chose simen Hestens simply because of his role in Dimmu Borgir, his voice sounds fantastic when belnded with the heavy operatic feel of their music.

Cedric Bixler-Zavala of The Mars Volta.

Pavaroti has my vote.

Asha Bhonsle!

This is a very short clip:

Also, I don't hear much about this chick now, but I think that Leann Rimes has one of the most powerful voices I have ever heard.

Interesting. I didn't know that. BTW, it's a game or something, right?

The most beautiful rock vocalist of my time, Cedric Bixler-Zavala. His voice is absolutely mind-blowing, to me atleast. What I would do to have a voice like his.

Freddie Mercury. No contest.

Freddie Mercury. No contest.

Definately the biggest victim of AIDS, no other word describes him dying other than tragedy

I would have to say Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance. Her voice is just mind-blowing. Either her, or Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins.

Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, and Chris Daughtry.
