• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Whaddya think?

I think this list is a load of crap. On that list, I can only see Child in Time, Bohemian Rhapsody, Since I've Been Loving You, Stairway, Jesus Christ Pose, Painkiller, Mother Father, Great Gig, Alone, Open Arms, Victim of Changes, The Trooper, Estranged, Gimme Shelter, Man in the Box, Beyond the Wheel, Sweet Child o' Mine, Run to the Hills, Crazy on You, and Number of the Beast as particularly remarkable vocal performances among those that I knew on that list, which is at least 120-140 of them.

Also, the follwoing songs should've made the list, in my opinion:

Smokin' - Boston
Highway Star - Deep Purple
Screaming for Vengeance - Judas Priest
Alive - Pearl Jam
Spoonman - Soundgarden
Full on Kevin's Mom - Soundgarden
Metal Meltdown - Judas Priest
Riad and the Bedouins - Guns n' Roses

(Yes, I know that there's a Greatest Vocal Performance thread, but this is to discuss this list.)
 
best vocal performance is obviously by a guy in an icelandic cave nobody has ever heard of because he well lives in an icelandic cave
 
I do, because as a fan of awesome vocals in music, I know for a fact that there are a lot of underrated singers that shallow publications wouldn't ever include. I have a hard time giving much of a damn about a list that would include Axl Rose but not Vincent Cavanagh or Anneke van Giersbergen.
