Greatest Male Vocalist list and Greatest Female Vocalist list

[TGMatt]

Nope Chas..very few people even when Crowded House were at their peak recognized truly their talent..

heres some from Tim's solo days..for those of you interested in someone who can sing, compose, play piano, play guitar, sing harmonies, and play the occasional drum kit...do yourself a favour and give him a listen

[TGMatt]

here are the brothers back after the end of crowded house...and if you have listened to all of crowded house..go back annd get eveything Split Enz ever did..Timeless...

[TGMatt]

and just to show you how Im confused between the pair..together ?..apart ??..part of a band ?? Her is Neil

What a great version of "Don't dream it's over" that was. Thanks for posting that, Matt. And I had no idea he was a kiwi until I heard him speak.

The nice thing about this thread is that you can learn to discover new artists! I love it, Keep up the nice pieces

[TGMatt]

Ok to continue my theme of for me great voices and great duets..

Here is Kate Bush and Peter Gabriel

[TGMatt]

And possibly the greatest song Peter ever did...and yes I bought this when it was released...the lyrics mean something very special to me..Peters voice is frankly unique....

Paula Cole is pretty decent singer here too...

"In Your Eyes"

love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes

love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes

And here he is with Youssou N'Dour ..viva la Senegal...(i have some ties to Sengalese music)..and this is the second time I have posted Youssou as an international voice..

[TGMatt]

Heres is Pete with another great female vocalist who frankly wasted some of her talent I believe..Sinead Oconner..By the way this song is just superb
