From any band, any era. Consider stage presence, uniqueness of voice, range, songwriting and how many chicks he's banged. And by chicks, I mean dudes as well (you're welcome Freddie). Personal favorites, no arguments. (unless you pick someone like Sammy Haggar over DLR)

1. Bono
2. Freddie Mercury
3. Robert Plant
4. Sting
5. Steve Perry

More contemporary: Scott Weiland, Eddie Vedder, Brandon Boyd, Axl...

ok so most of these guys are dead. or arent as great as they once were. because of this i listed 6.

sue me, i was a teenager in the early 90's and thats when music really meant something to me.

of note: I STILL have the plaid flannel.

Couldn't agree with you more one, it's probably a generation thing ;)

Although I'd like to replace Scott Weiland with Mike Patton from Faith No More (he did some wierd things on stage)

I've seen Bono and The Police live, and while great shows, (except the Zoo TV tour which was crap) they don't really rise above any other really good lead singer as far as on stage presence goes.

I'd say that tenure plays a major role in this discussion...sure, guys like Jack White and Pelle Almqvist (The Hives) know how to rock it, but they haven't been around long enough to justify being dubbed as one of the best ever.

Anyways, here's my transplanted list from another thread:

Robert Plant
Mick Jagger
Roger Daltrey
Jim Morrison
Paul Rodgers

Modern Age:
Zach De La Rocha
Kurt Cobain
Eddie Vedder
Trent Reznor - though he could be considered a "one-man band"
Jack White

Agreed, but with them, you consider longevity, talent and voice. If I had to choose to listen to someone sing acapella, Mick Jagger wouldn't top my list, but his stage presence alone is easily top five. Sting plays a mean bass, too. Points for singers who can play instruments.
