From Florence and the Machine. Also, Adele, and Bruno Mars has a pretty wicked voice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-242155 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 13:34:52 +0000 mrs. wagon 242155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We talk about this all the time since I'm a singer. I always come to the same conclusions. So sad that Whitney Houston can't make my list anymore since she's dead. :(</p> <p>I'm only addressing females here, and only as vocalists. Not necessarily artists. There's a big difference between a vocalist and an artist!<br /> Celine Dion<br /> Mariah Carey<br /> Christina Aguilera<br /> Reba McIntire</p> <p>It's difficult for me to do males, so I won't! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241855 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 10:54:52 +0000 mrbee 241855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@serendipity: I'm a huge Norah fan! Love Ravi Shanker too... he gave a concert at my college when I was a lad. What a musical connection! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241850 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 10:52:53 +0000 Meridian 241850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Yay, my first dance was also to a Josh Groban song :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241704 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 09:00:19 +0000 LuLu Mom 241704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Adele &amp; Michael Buble (he has an old soul voice) for newer artists, also I think Carrie Underwood has range and doesn't get as much credit because she's country. </p> <p>I can't agree wtih Christina, although she has pipes, she overdoes it and "screams" too much for my liking. And I just don't care for her at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241617 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 08:13:49 +0000 serendipity 241617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: interesting fact, did you know Ravi Shanker is Norah Jone's father? A few years ago I saw him in concert weeks before her performance, I had no idea at the time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241595 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 07:56:21 +0000 littlebug 241595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For me, Adele tops the list. Her voice is just bananas. Alison Kraus is another one of my favorites. Her voice is like a lullaby for me - gorgeous. As for men, I gotta go with Freddie Mercury. I mean, come on. That guy could sing. And Ray LaMontagne is so soothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241592 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 07:49:50 +0000 MsLipGloss 241592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am so not a Celine fan, but her voice can make the hair on the back of my neck stand up - aaaa-may-zing! Christina is great, too,. What about Barbara Streisand? Not really my style, but will be interesting to see what you all think! :)</p> <p>For the men, what about Andrea Bocelli? His voice is awesome . . . and his duet with Celine for Con te Partiro is ridonc. For me, nobody beats the soul of Otis Redding. Am also a fan of Josh Groban (his "When You Say You Love Me" was the first dance at my wedding). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241513 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 03:14:12 +0000 loveisstrange 241513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with Adele, Alicia Keys and Christina. They all have gorgeous powerhouse voices.</p> <p>Jessie J actually has a really nice voice too when she's not singing weird or a song that's too annoying to listen too. lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241502 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 02:20:37 +0000 Chastenet 241502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: :), right back at ya! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241501 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 02:18:21 +0000 mrsjazz 241501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Christina's voice would be amazing if she didn't try so hard with all the fancy runs, just sing the damn song without all that extra crap...we know you can sing.</p> <p>I like old Mariah. I still remember the first time I saw her sing Vision of Love on Arsenio Hall, I was blown away.</p> <p>Alicia Keys, Yes! Adele, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241495 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:53:23 +0000 mrbee 241495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chastenet: You are my musical friend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241493 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:46:08 +0000 Chastenet 241493@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: It's true that he's a very well-rounded artist, and his talents as a musician and songwriter probably outshine his voice...But he still has a great voice! My other fav male singers are all gone unfortunately, Otis Redding, Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye, I'm so sad I will never see them in concert!<br /> Oh I just thought of another girl to add, but this may be more for her insane writing talents: Janelle Monaé. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241492 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:45:50 +0000 BSB 241492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I would go with Mariah over Christina. Although, I don't know if you can really listen to someone who has Mariah, Christina, Britney, Jessica Simpson and JLo on her 'Favs' playlist. :P</p> <p>Also, I've been liking Christina less and less because of her attitude on 'The Voice.' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241488 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:36:27 +0000 mrbee 241488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Chastenet: Good one! I was gonna add him, but wasn't sure if I liked him for his singing or his songwriting... in the end, I had to say it was his songwriting that won my heart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241487 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:31:33 +0000 Chastenet 241487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I completely agree with your list (and omitted singers!) @mrbee: but I would have to add Stevie Wonder! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241445 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:56:12 +0000 Boogs 241445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely agree with Christina. I don't know how Britney made it as a musketeer with Christina around, seriously.</p> <p>I'm also really big on Adele. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241444 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:54:32 +0000 mrbee 241444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@serendipity: so ashamed I forgot Norah! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241443 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:51:26 +0000 anonysquire 241443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to agree with Christina. Also I really love Beyonce and Rhianna. Rhianna has such a unique sound. I loved Michael Jackson. I adore Lykke Li and Coco Rosie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241440 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:46:38 +0000 Meridian 241440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Josh Groban... Is that a super cheesy answer? I love him, I cannot lie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241406 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:44:34 +0000 prettylizy 241406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: saw Celine in Vegas last year and amazing isn't a big enough word to describe that show. As a disclaimer @mrbee: I'm not a huge Celine fan, I don't own any of her music or listen to her on my own.... but man, that performance rocked my world. There were 5 of us there, and at one point or another we all sobbed, she evokes emotion from her audience, and we were way up on the balcony. I die. Best live performance I've ever seen bar none. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241399 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:39:52 +0000 serendipity 241399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Adele has a gorgeous voice. I love Norah Jones. A few of my (really) old favorites include Sting, Shirley Bassey and Billy Idol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241374 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:20:01 +0000 lovehoneybee 241374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm...aside from those already listed, I'd add Whitney Houston. I'm also super impressed by Charice Pempengco, especially given how young she is (I think she's maybe 19 or 20 now?). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241373 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:18:20 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 241373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for me - only one person comes to mind - CELINE DION!!! still need to go watch her show in vegas... i keep hearing amazing things!! plus i respect her so much... she seems so down-to-earth and like such a genuine, warm person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241366 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:09:30 +0000 mrbee 241366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Mariah has a huge range and strong pipes. I definitely respect her technical chops. Don't think her music really swings or has soul, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241361 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:04:52 +0000 MamaMoose 241361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What is the matter with Mariah? I mean yeah.. She's a crazy lady... But girl has some pipes!!! But I am with you on Madonna... She's a great artist but not a particularly talented voice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241353 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:00:01 +0000 Sweet T 241353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Carrie Underwood has an amazing voice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241350 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 20:59:29 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 241350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Adele (before she got all popular) Christina is pretty awesome too. But come on, Celine. She's a Quebecer, French, and a mega superstar female singer. ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241341 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 20:56:07 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 241341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>whoa, whoa. easy there, kids! </p> <p>i say christina for sure. and i also love brian mcknight's voice...like butta. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-are-the-most-talented-singers-alive-today#post-241339 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 20:55:39 +0000 chopsuey 241339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to say celine :P haha </p>
