Hmm. If I could steal anyone's singing voice it would be Jeff Martin's (ex Tea Party). I'd nick his guitar skills too!

Second choice would be Wayne Hussey of The Mission, who I always thought had a good range and decent sounding voice with just enough whine in it to sound suitably miserable.

In both cases I'd use the voices to sing dark and moody rock songs.

Talking about wanting and using other musicians skills is somewhat hypocritical of me after my recent moan about Kid Rock!

Had never considered Kid Rock and skill in the same sentence.

It would have to be Tori Amos for me.

If I were a laydee, that'd be my choice too.

It works, when used in combination with the words "has" and "no".

Stevie Wonder!

Can't decide, but would be between Corey Taylor of slipknot/Stone Sour, Freddie Mercury or Matt Bellamy of Muse.

Skin from Skunk Anansie. OK, I'm the wrong sex to have her voice, but in terms of admiration of ability......

[GAjon]

Ian Gillan.

Roger Daltrey. In fact I think I'd probably settle for just being able to sing "Behind Blue Eyes" like he does/did...

Amen, I'd pick Daltrey any day; I'm suprised that it's took a page and a half for his name to be mentioned.

Or would I pick Robert Plant?

Good vote, there.

[Killer2005]

Another nod for Freddie Mercury

If I didn't have a wang - Jocelyn Brown

[Gaspode]

Robert Plant for me. If only I could sing "Killing The Blues" from Raising Sand the way he does...

[ratbane]

Steve Marriot.

Awesome, soulful voice. Checkout the youtube links on the "best live male vocals discussion".

Good call - The Small Faces are a criminally overlooked band in my view and SMs voice was no small part of the magic.

I'd still rather sound like Daltrey though... :-)

Paul Carrack.

Paul Rodgers "THE GODFATHER"

If it had to be American then Steve Perry
