Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow) 13. Tina Turner (Tina Turner, Ike and Tina) 14. Roger Daltery (The Who) 15. Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead) 16. Jimi Hendrix (The Jimi Hendrix Experience) 17. Axl Rose (Guns N' Roses) 18. David Lee Roth (Van Halen) 19. Janis Joplin 20. Ozzy Osbourne As you can see These are really all Rock, Heavy Metal Singers, but I feel are the best of the lot. Personally My Number 1 can be considered biased as Whitesnake are my favourite band, but he is definately an awesome singer anyway. Anyway, Who will make your top 20, whether their Rock, Metal, Pop, Punk, R N' B Whatever...let us know.

How could you not include Sebastian Bach. I really must disagree with your inclusion of the following: Brian Johnson - Sounds like he's trying to sing while crammed in a garbage can; Lemmy - Good but definitely not top 20; Jimi - Stick to the guitar.

I don't mean to diss your list but I think that Maynard James Keenan of Tool and A Perfect Circle should be on that list at least somewhere. I'm not all that big of a fan of classic rock really so I can't really agree with any of your choices for this list but I would also want to put Chino Moreno of the Deftones on there and Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.
