He has a good voice, but he spoils it too much himself. If he sang normally instead of AAAAGHHHH UUUUUUGHHH all the time he would be great. I don't like his timbre, too.

And, my main opinion of Page/Plant, I don't know if someone said it so far, but The most goddamn overrated songwriters EVER!

I must admit Robert's voice is very toucing... his got a gift and he thrills the listeners, he is not the greatest voice of the century but I would definitely include him at the same list with artist such as freddie mercury, Elvis Presley,Andy Williams, Ian gillan etc...

I don't find it as powerful as others seem to think.

Personally I think David Coverdale sings this type of music far better than Robert Plant ever did, But because he was in Whitesnake & not Led Zeppelin he'll never get anywhere near the amount of credit he should

David Coverdale is a great singer but honestly I don't think he sings that kinda stuff better than Robert Plant
when Robert Plant sings he is touching you, he's not just singing
he's not fake like so many other singers, he means what he sings otherwise he wouldn't sing it
but you know this is a matter of taste

the bottom line is what you said, he was a part of Led Zeppelin and not whitesnake, that's why he gets this amount of credit

who's better? this is a matter of taste, they're both great singers

I was talking with one of my friends about this the other day and he was saying that Robert plant could hit some really low notes, I could only ask "when?". His voice is always pretty high and whiny and quite annoying.

he has a wide range, you said his voice kinda annoying,
I like this sound,when he sort of scream
he doesn't sing like others do, some people may like this and some not

[blastingas10]

He does not have a wide range at all. He has a fairly high pitched scream and a pretty soft and gentle whisper type of singing. Not much range at all. He's not a bad singer at all but i don't think he's nearly as good as some people do. Listen to the small faces song "you need love" and tell me plant doesn't sing In a very similar way to Steve Marriott.

[smolanski]

He can sing some low notes and high notes, and he does it in his Very special way
Don't you think he is a very unique singer?
