AXL ROSE Is 'Greatest Lead Singer Of All Time,' According To New Poll - Dec. 8, 2010
GUNS N' ROSES frontman Axl Rose has been voted the greatest lead singer of all time by readers of MusicRadar.com, ahead of such legendary vocalists as Freddy Mercury, Robert Plant, Ronnie James Dio, John Lennon and Bruce Dickinson.
MusicRadar.com says: "The public have spoken. Forget the caricature of recent years and think back to the late 1980s — he was dangerous, lean, angry, confrontational, and controversial. The hotheaded, horny ginger stepchild of Steven Tyler and Robert Plant, a born rock star who made being fashionably late a lifestyle choice and started riots in the process."

I agree - crap list - you'd think any list that has Iggy Pop next to Smokey Robinson should be interesting, but all those whiny AOR singers!!!! Rainbow are up there in the top ten worst songs of all times with the especially whiny Since You've Been Gone - was that Ronnie J Rio? (Please don't answer, I already know I shouldn't be perpetuating this thread.)
