^ I like that list right there.... especially Bowie, Patton, and ***en. I don't think I've talked to anyone else here who likes Steely Dan. What's your favorite album by them?

David Gray! I've just been listening to his music lately. It brings back memories.

I don't listen to lyrical music too much so it's hard to say really.

Not a lot of love for many female vocalists eh?

I think there are some amazing ladies out there who I personally consider to have brilliant voices. Imogen Heap, Tori Amos, Annie Lennox...

Male - Nobody could touch Robert Plant in his prime. NOBODY. Honorable mentions go to Jeff Buckleys ridiculous range, and Russell Allen for being absolutely pitch perfect all the time and having an awesome voice that can be smooth or rough. Definitely an improvement over Symphony X's original vocalist in a big way.

Female - As much as I love Bjork, I have to admit there are a couple other vocalists I love just that little bit more. In particular, my all time favourite female vocalist is Ella Fitzgerald. NOBODY comes within a million miles of Ella for me.

Trance music almost ALWAYS has female vocals so I definitely agree with you on that. Zoe Johnston, Justine Suissa, Tiff Lacey, etc.
