Cassie definitely has a lame voice.
Wayne Coyne is probably the worst singer of the alternative rock world. But don't get me wrong, the Lips are great. Just youtube any live clip; he sounds as if he had a sumo wrestler eating fries on his chest.

His distinctive style is what made the Lips who they are. Even if he is a bit off-key, Wayne Coyne's vocals have always been the centerpiece of the Lips.

Um, Celine Dion can't sing? Say what?

He might have the coolest falsetto ever, the Flaming Lips would sound awful if Coyne only sung in a deeper voice like Beck (but he has a good voice too).

Wayne Coyne? Are you kidding me?

Let's try something more realistic. Guys like Coyne and Kiedis do their thing and they do it well.

Prince, now that's a singer I can't stand.

No, the centerpiece of the Lips is the exuberance of their sound; the theatricality and bombasticness, the over-the-top arrangements. And although I like the sound of his voice, his actual singing could've been a lot better. Wayne Coyne is just a darn nice guy who's lucky that his band is that good. And of course he fills a part in the band, but in my opinion, he's not as indispensable as, say, Drozd.

I agree that Coyne does fill his part in the way that only he can. A singer's voice, to me, is the most important 'instrument' in a band, and therefor, I feel he's the least dispensable.

Michael James Williams.

I mean, I love Prince Far I, but his voice has never really impressed me. That said, it's hardly the point of the sound he trades in though.
