:p ...the "not necessarily good ones" disclaimer is for the whole list, not for all the entries, and because it was not in my top 10 list.

I beg to differ. You mentioned a whole host of voices then added more "not necessarily good, but recognisable all the same" voices, so no, I shan't put the rope back. Here, kitty, kitty, kitty... :trouble:

Another voice to add to the list - and he's probably got some impossibly-long, incredibly-difficult-to-pronounce German name like "Gufschnauter Ichbinscheimenheiter"...

Rammstein's vocalist!

You'll never miss that guy!

As a chicken I wouldn't want to be near a cat or a kitty, would you? :p
Do you know if it is me in my avatar?

And Stinky Chicken + your avatar... does not compute! :scared:

I'm the Super-Chicken. No cat or kitty would come anywhere NEAR me!

Actually, I'm a stinky chicken. You name a cat (or kitty) that wants anything to do with a stinky chicken... :trouble:

You're a person with an orange face and no visible body? Get help.

Would this be more appropriate...?

Also, why has Famine spelt recognisable, recognizable?
Has he? Famine hasn't posted in this thread.
 
I think that chicken looks much more like a duck with a rake coming out of it's ass.

Oh and Bon Scott and Brian Johnson have very similar voices, so they're not terribly unique.
I don´t think they have very similar voices. And although I like both their voices, I like Bon Scott´s better.

Agree.

I agree, in fact. Bon Scott was much better, but I think Brian Johnson is very over-looked. He doesn't get a lot of credit, as everyone always says: "Bon Scott is better." While that's true, Brian Johnson is quite good as well.

What about Mick Hucknel of Simply Red ?
 
The singer from Pearl Jam. Very recognisable voice.

Yeah I do, thanks Ben. I've always had a problem spelling that. :grumpy:

I thought it might be interesting to learn the opinions of others on this matter... The title is pretty self explanatory... What vocalists (rock, r&b, electronic, hip hop, 40's, 50's, 60's, etc, etc...) do you think have easily recognizable voices. Whether odd, or even just voicing their message in a way that sets them apart... Vote for 10 that you believe fit the criteria... This will run till December 25th, at which time the votes will be tallied and the top ten results will be posted...
I'll start us off...

1. Maynard James Keenan (Tool, A Perfect Circle)
2. Layne Staley (Alice in Chains, Mad Season)
3. Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin)
4. Tom Waits
5. Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead)
6. Chino Moreno (Deftones)
7. Perry Farrell (Janes Addiction, Porno for Pyros)
8. David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)
9. Thom Yorke (Radiohead)
10. Louis Armstrong
