Freddie Mercury!

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.

Chris Cornell of Sohndgarden, Temple of the Dog, and Audioslave

I’m also always impressed by Demi Lovato

For me, has always been Chris Cornell. Absolutely gutted when he died, knowing I'd never hear anything new from him again.

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!

No one mentions Adele?

The chick from paramore

Hayley Williams of Paramore.

Especially since she started experimenting with solo projects. She's so good and very versatile.

Devin Townsend

James Maynard, I mean how big are his lungs?

I'm always amazed by Robert Plant when I watch old Zeppelin videos

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.

Mike Patton, he has one of the largest vocal octave ranges in music.

Jeff Buckley Ella Fitzgerald Edith Piaf

Elizabeth Fraser from Cocteau Twins.
Dolores O'Riordan (RIP) from The Cranberries.
Arai Akino, for "VOICES" from Macross Plus.

Hearing Bjork sing “Birthday” on the Sugarcubes’ debut LP was a revelation for me. Still blows me away.

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

Andrea Bocelli and Miley Cyrus.

The lead singer of the German band, AnnenMayKantereit. (The band name is just three surnames smooshed together.)

Here's my favorite song by them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tERRFWuYG48&t=4 which translates to "barefoot at the piano"

Another great song, a bit more up-beat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6BmrRLpGJQ&t=3 which translates to "would you go out with me?"

Floor Jansen

Thom Yorke

Chaka Khan

Lzzy Hale has an incredible voice

When Brandi Carlile’s voice cracks and she belts out the chorus near the end of The Story, it’s just incredible. There are better singers, technically, but the pure, raw emotion conveyed is powerful (to me anyway).

Josh Kiszka of Greta Van Fleet has a hell of a voice.

I'm also surprised that I didn't see anyone mention Mariah Carey.

Hailey Williams. Wasn't even into that genre at the time, but her voice always made me think "wow, this is pretty good".

no mention of bessie smith , billie, nina , janis joplin ?

Till Lindemann always gives me the goosebumps.

That's gotta be Antwaun Stanley for me. His work with Vulfpeck and Cory Wong are just phenomenal

Ann Wilson (Heart) always makes me smile when I watch her live performances.

Haley Reinhart

Renée Elise Goldsberry aka Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton

Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel from Wicked

Dimash Qudaibergen. He has the most incredible voice I've ever heard.

Recently it's this girl. https://youtu.be/YYoP9bxwg84

Her voice is out of this world. Sadly I don't know how to write her name. [Symbol]OK

George Michael had an incredible voice and was my singing idol for a long long long time - I'm a contralto so I can't really sing to a lot of female singers unfortunately... His range and timbre... Just amazing.

Floor Jansen and Marcela Bovio, especially when they sing live.

Caroline Polachek, Imogen Heap, Charlie Puth, Kim Petras, and occasionally Sia.

Vocal powerhouses.

Michael Buble

Rory Rodriguez of Day Seeker

Haley Williams of Paramore

Yannis Papadopoulos of Beast in Black. Dude's got some insane vocal range.

Since Mike Patton is already on the list:

Eva Cassidy ❤️

Myles Kennedy. Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeet, that man can sing...

I've seen him live (with Alter Bridge) a couple of times, and it has just blown me away hearing his live performance be as good as if not better than the studio versions.
