Why is posting Leona Lewis a bad thing? If someone gives you goosebumps, they give you goosebumps.

LOL. I dont usually like her in general either...I could understand people moaning if someone (XX&X) came in and posted every one of her songs in here

Yeah like I can understand people rolling their eyes if someone just comes in and posts lots of videos of the same singer (most likely their favourite and everyone knows it) but just one video by someone who isn't normally a fan? Ah whatever. I can't think of any performances right now so I have nothing to contribute .

Ellie Goulding. I had never heard of her until the other day, but WOW! It's not often I love somebody's voice so much.

Ian Curtis's voice is incredibly chilling. Nobody can really bring the darkness he does to his songs (hence why most Joy Division covers don't even compare)

Youtube video


Chet Bakers version of My Funny Valentine is also incredible, understated. It almost sounds quite creepy.

Youtube video


I'd love to mention Smashing Pumpkins somewhere but that's going against the favourite artist rule...**** it, sue me but Billy Corgan is ****ing fantastic in Ava Adore, such a creepy voice and so perfect for the song and lyrics.

Youtube video

...ignore the resemblence to Voldemort.

Bruce Dickinson has powerful vocals.

Youtube video


I also think Corey Taylor has a great rock/metal voice, and can use a variety of vocals.
