For me it’s Neko Case in any of her bands.
This one is not likely to be popular here, but I have to be totally honest and say: Miley Cyrus.
Don’t get me wrong. I am not really a fan of her or her music (nor am I a hater). But my god does that woman have an incredible voice and a mastery of how to use it.
I feel this way about lady gaga. Not really a fan of her but her voice is excellent
I saw her live and she really does sing well.
Her backyard sessions stuff is amazing, like this rendition of Jolene.
I’m the same about Ariana Grande. Not a fan, but I saw clips of her singing showtunes with Seth MacFarlane and it was incredible. She has such range and while I’m not really familiar with her music, I feel like her popular songs don’t do her any favours.
Was about to put this one as well. Her singing voice is absolutely amazing!
Chris Cornell of Sohndgarden, Temple of the Dog, and Audioslave
I’m also always impressed by Demi Lovato
Classic.
No one mentions Adele?
The chick from paramore
Adele is the first one I thought of. Her voice is angelic and she doesn’t allow any auto tune use. Respect.
Haley Williams (chick from paramore)
I can put +1 on that, but I haven’t liked her solo stuff.
Hayley Williams of Paramore.
Especially since she started experimenting with solo projects. She’s so good and very versatile.
I’m always amazed by Robert Plant when I watch old Zeppelin videos
James Maynard, I mean how big are his lungs?
Maynard James Keenan?
It’s fun to watch someone’s reaction to hearing the scream from The Grudge for the first time. In-fucking-sane.
Ticks and Leeches (I’ve seen it live in one of the rare times they’ve played it) also goes into the “how’s he doing that” category.
And then I’d put The Pot up there just because that intro was such a mindblower when it came out.
I think you mean the guy from tool… that’s not his name…
Serj Tankien
I am a huge Soad fan, but his solo career also counts. The guy has a one in a billion voice, amazing range!

Tetiana Shmailyuk from Jinjer - a Ukrainian metal band. Her ability to go from her growl to her clean vocals is absolutely wild to me.

Fuck, somehow I had forgotten about Mark Lanegan’s passing.

Andrea Bocelli and Miley Cyrus.
Elizabeth Fraser from Cocteau Twins.
Dolores O’Riordan (RIP) from The Cranberries.
Arai Akino, for “VOICES” from Macross Plus.Floor Jansen
Fits well with Nightwish. Almost perfect replacement for Tarja Turunen
She killed it on stargazers when I saw them live. Absolutely agree.
Thanks, was looking for this
Regina Spektor.
For my money no one can convey as much emotion through their voice as her.
Sara Bareilles
Is incredibly precise. Listening to her voice is like listening to what people are hoping for when they’re autotuning, but she nails it.
+1 for Sara
Sara rocks!
Jeff Buckley Ella Fitzgerald Edith Piaf
