Elvis is generally agreed upon as having a good voice, even if you don't like his music.

None of the Beatles had a good voice.

Paul McCartney is an excellent rock and roll singer.

Buck Dharma didn't actually sing lead on a lot of BOC songs....but the ones he did sing were mostly huge hits.

RollingStone - Aretha Franklin
RollingStone Fans - Robert Plant
Billboard - Bruce Springsteen
Ranker - Freddie Mercury
Guitar World Readers - Chris Cornell

All significantly more talented than Elvis.



In your opinion they are, Springsteen is not a better singer than Elvis and as much as I liked Cornell neither was he.

Joan Baez is probably my favorite female singer, but she is probably more folk than rock.
That gal from Evanescence could really fucking sing, but they only had a few decent songs.

Springsteen may or may not be a better singer than Elvis, but he's head and shoulders more talented.

You're just absolutely wrong about Cornell. Elvis couldn't touch his emotion, range or control.
