Equivalent to the Guitar Masters thread but this time with singers.

 

Those whose voices amaze you. Be it for their incredible range, on point technique, or maybe because of a beautiful timbre or sheer expressiveness.

 

I'll start with probably the most obvious choice:

Freddie Mercury

 

 

 

This is amazing: isolated vocals track of The Show Must Go On

 

Incredible and so powerful performance, even more considering he was practically dying by then...

One of the most powerful voices of the early '70s, and damn what a range!  

 

The moment I discovered I had a crazy wide range as well, he became a huge influence on my singing, especially (and obviously) on reaching those so damn high notes.

 

Ian Gillan

Though I don't dislike this (anymore) it's still far from my favorite music, BUT! 

If there has been a wonderful and oh so utterly beautiful voice it was hers
