Ok ignoring the screen name, Cobain really didn't have that great a voice.
But my faves are
Freddy Mercury
Stevey Tyler
James Hetfield
Lennon

Allot of rock singers have great voices, like I love Axl Rose, but his voices changes so much its insane. You never know what you're going to get.

Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl are awesome.
What about Otep?! She's pretty good. Her voice is dynamic. It shows in her reproduction of nirvanas' Breed.

Corey Tailor seems to have lost it a bit in Slipknot. But has improved with his other band Stone Sour! Gavin Rossdale from Bush was pretty good, so my friend tells me. I have yet to judge myself

Hey Cmon, Kurt was fantastic! He was unique. No one will ever sound like him and only his voice will do his songs justice. No he wasn't your normal singer, but he was good in his way.He is the God of Grunge! Multi-talented too. I agree with Lennon! Oasis are pretty chilled so for that I'd nominate them. Dynamic too when it comes to the importance to being idle! But maybe they in a different league here...

Kurt was a great singer for grunge.
If we were talking about pure singing talent, he may not be on the list at all.
I love the man though.

I like J Mascis but he's kinda like Kurt Cobain in the style of vocals.

Yeah but he was making music long before Nirvana, so that should be the other way around!
