My personal favorite isn't on the list..oh well but I played along and had some fun.

Has to be Bruce for me.

It was a tough one, I really coul...HALFORD!!!!!!!!!!

The Metal God

Bruce out of that list. Zak Stevens is my favorite vocalist but the mighty Bruce is most definatly #2 in my book. I'd give anything to be able to sing like any of the guys listed but my range is too small and I can't put grit on my voice without sounding pathetic (I can growl pretty good but I don't think that quite qualifies as singing).

Can't choose my favourite...So I choose the one with the best voice there (Was tie between him and Bruce!) sooo...I voted for the Metal God.

I gotta go with Bruce from that list.

I will have to say Dio. Halford and Dickinson are amazing though!

Dio from that list. But my favorite voice might be D.C. Cooper.

On singing ability probably Ray Gillen.

But on charisma and overall frontman charm gotta go Diamond Dave followed closely by Bon Scott. And really that's all that counts.

anyone who didn't pick Halford =

Overrated!

DLR got as many votes as Don Dokken.

I changed that, realised i didn't vote the first time. So now he has 1 vote. I think most people went on singing ability.

But DLR is the ultimate frontman, the guy is "Rock N' Roll frontman 101". DLR's charisma and showmanship overtakes any vocal gymnast in my books.

If not him, Freddie Mercury. By the way, where is Freddie on this list (I voted for Plant)? He IS the greatest singer in rock history. No one even comes close.

freddie didn't pop into my head. YOu can only have 15 choices.

Couldn't have said it better.
ROB HALFORD ALL THE WAY!!!

I went with the Metal God...what a shocker

I almost thought of going with Steve Perry. The band Journey evokes a lot of emotions for me and my favorite decade the 1980's. Sometimes nostalgia prevails in voting, but I had to go with Rob. I love Ronnie James, so he probably would've been 3rd on my list. Poor Don Dokken (whose voice I like), can't get a vote!

I voted for Halford there.

Ian Gillan probably stands as my top favorite though.

Boo!

Bon Scott without a shadow of a doubt that list could have 1000 choices and I would pick Bon in a heartbeat without even reading the others

BON SCOTT=GOD OF ROCK (IMO)

I voted for the same person and reason that white_mage did. Bon Scott, it would not have mattered who else is on the list, I still would have voted for Bon Scott, coolest frontman in rock history.

i went for bruce but i would have voted for brian johnson if he was on there or james hetfield

Halford.

Dave Mustaine
