Which Singer do you find most fascinating !

Bruce has the best range and power, I’ll go with him out of those listed. Fascinating is a subjective term. It could be any number of singers. I could go with Dio, Urban Breed,Miljenko Matejevic, Russ Anderson, Mike Vescera or many others.

Bruce. His ability to have a life outside of Maiden is of particular interest to me.

Of those three, definitely Bruce. You just can´t mess with him if you are on board on the Boeing 747 he's flying or in a fencing arena if you don´t want to get you liver pierced by his epee (at his best, he was ranking number seven on Britains fencing list).

And he is also an author and has done radio hosting etc. Multi-talent for sure.

But.. someone mentioned briefly Kate Bush somewhere in this thread. While not metal, she is one of the most fascinating singers of all times. Extremely talented, extremely private... has done only 2-3 tours over her career, but still succesfull. But shes not metal.

No, it wasn't. 

What even is a "fascinating singer"? 
.

Topic/Subject of the question is"singer" a noun.
The adjective describing "singer" is "fascinating"
Notice there is no reference to "person" and/or "life" in question.

Look up the definition of "fascinating", that might help you figure out how it applies to a singer? There are also these things called "synonyms" that might give you understanding of grammatical application?

I just finished watching the film "Bohemian Rhapsody" twice in a row.

You know who is "fascinating" singer?  Freddie Mercury.

The guy had the greatest voice to ever front a rock band (IMHO), was a fantastic "front man" for the band and had charisma to the gills.

True.

Not to mention...
The person who started the thread, "Glower" stated he meant "lyrics and storytelling" in the 22nd post on page 1 of thread.

I think it would’ve been easier to say it like that.

But it doesn’t hurt to go the extra mile sometimes and drop some knowledge of English Grammar.  

Correct me if I’m wrong.  

The title does not imply the singer has to be fascinating at his trade. Just that the pool of people you have to choose from is limited to singers. And this notion then gets intensified by the poll, where the selection is made even more selective. And you choose from three people who have lead a fascinating life, but who actually may or may not be that fascinating at actual singing.

You are absolutely correct!
It doesn't imply, cause it is very specific.

Glower has stated as much

Another perspective?

If the title stated, "which person do you find mos fascinating?" and the choices were all singers like in the post... Then one could imply as to what is fascinating about them. The question was to a specific trait of the three individuals names, being "singer". How you make an implication from a specific is beyond me

Why have you not told Glower he is wrong too? ....

Why doesn’t Glower step in and clear up the matter? That would settle it!

He already has...
Unlike me, Glower seems to say something once and call it good?
