Looking For Singers To Notewatch? Try Here (11,731 views)

[falsetokaiba]

This thread is to suggest singers you might be interested in doing a thread for. If you're looking for someone to notewatch and need some inspiration, hopefully there'll be somebody here that takes your interest.
All singers listed here are currently threadless and up for grabs- if you do want to claim one you should still post in the Singer Index thread, and I'll remove them from this list. Also feel free to suggest more singers to be added to this list or if you feel it'd be better to have singer(s) listed under a different genre tag- I'm undoubtedly lacking in knowledge about genres I don't listen to all that much.

Great idea :thumb: . I'd add the Killswitch Engage singers to that list (Howard Jones and Jesse Leach) , I would also add Chino Moreno from Deftones, Shaun Morgan from Seether. If I can think of others I will comment on them in a longer list so as not to comment constantly.

[Henny Macc]

Ooh I'm all for this. There are definitely a number of singers that I'd like to see threads for, but I'm currently pretty stocked up on notewatching projects myself, so I won't be able to do new ones for a bit.

Here are my suggestions for additions:
- Adam Pascal for the musical theatre singers section
- David Coverdale for glam metal
- Graham Bonnet and Tony Martin for traditional heavy metal

[falsetokaiba]

Adam Pascal and Tony Martin sure sound good. I think rebaru is planning on redoing David Coverdale, and Platypus' old Graham Bonnet thread at least in my opinion is still up to scratch, so as he no longer wants to claim Bonnet I might just tune it up a little and have the Steve bot host it.

[Henny Macc]

Ah cool. I didn't see Coverdale listed as a claimed thread (or anywhere, really) in the thread index, so I wasn't sure.

I actually had a mostly-researched thread for Andrew Stockdale back on TRP2, but there are still two albums or so that I never checked, so here's where I left off:

Progressive metal:
John West

Mats Leven

Power metal:

I know Eric Adams already has a thread. I've currently got Mark Boals claimed and am working on him, but it might take me a while as he's got a pretty big discography. I had also suggested doing Mats Leven as a collab with a few other users, although if anybody else particularly wants to claim him I wouldn't mind much. The others I'll add :) Keep the suggestions coming.
Update: Sting had been claimed as a collab between Rebaru and Baronessa, and I think Zedd (possibly with other collabers including IHateMana if memory serves) is re-doing Peter Gabriel, although I see that wasn't in the Index before, and I'll add it now.

[Henny Macc]

Ah whoops, somehow I missed that Eric Adams thread! I know some of the others were threads that we had on TRP3 that haven't been moved over yet, but they haven't been listed in the thread index yet, so I figured I'd mention them here. I know John Bush is up for grabs because that was one of Sandblasted's old threads and he gave up all of his for grabs; Zedd Squared had Peter Gabriel though so maybe he'll end up moving that one over; and rebaru also had Sting, so if he's planning on keeping that one it should also be added to the index.

[Breakfast in D-sharp]

2/3 of my clip-off team are unclaimed. I guess New Wave would be the best fit for Billy MacKenzie?
Not sure if Eddi Reader would be better listed under Pop or Folk/Trad - probably the latter? (P.S. in case anyone's interested, her range is at least E3-E6).

[Rodney Blazershorts]

I’ve long wanted to redo Stu Block, but the sheer amount of death growls/screams has daunted me.

[Zedd Squared]

The Gabriel thread is in progress as we speak so yeah I'll still be uploading that one hopefully in the near future.

[Henny Macc]

So what I'm getting from this is that the thread index needs a decent amount of updating, if there are that many singers that people have made claims for already but aren't listed there  Does anyone have Lou Gramm claimed, for that matter? Because that would be one of my other suggestions otherwise.

The death growls probably wouldn't be worth listing since those don't tend to have much of a musical pitch. I guess I could try help pitching some of the screams though. Here's what his thread looked like on TRP2 anyway; I can at least confirm that all the research for Iced Earth songs is accurate:

Fuggit, sign me up for Roger Hodgson actually. I've already notewatched the entire Supertramp discography and it turns out he only has three solo albums outside of that, so that should be an easy enough task. Apparently Rick Davies doesn't actually have any non-Supertramp albums for that matter, meaning I've already notewatched his entire discography, so I'll probably go ahead and move my old thread for him over here too.

Maybe I'll end up taking over Andrew Stockdale's thread at some point too since, since I would only have to notewatch three more albums to finish that one off, but if so it'll inevitably end up being a long way away.

[kaji]

I’m currently working on a Billy Porter thread. Imma just say - dude’s belts are nuts.

[kaji]

Barack Obama thread, when? Surprisingly a lot of singing material. Maybe enough for a thread. 

[Henny Macc]

Two other suggestions for the Traditional Heavy Metal section of this thread: Doogie White from Rainbow/Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force (confirmed B♭2-B♭5 I believe) and Todd La Torre from Queensryche/Crimson Glory (last listed for G1-B5).

I did some notewatching for Todd back on TRP2, so I might end up taking him over just to finish off the rest of what I started, but no promises until I have a clearer queue for threads. Also considering potentially doing the same for Andrew Stockdale and Stu Block though.

[blazejecar2]

idk how nanowar of steel singers would be done because sometimes it's just impossible to tell who sings what

[Siren]

I'm down to do some Nanowar!!
I think both Potowotominimak and Mr. Baffo deserve threads. (not claiming them, just as a collab sort of thing if anyone desires it)

I'd be up for a collab on those, like I said, sometimes I don't know who sings what, so a 2nd opinion from someone would be great

[kaji]

Started going through the old Cathedrals' records for the George Younce thread.

[aphelion]

I think Ryan Tedder would be a good one to do. He has some great mid-5th octave belts. Lots of A5s and B5s from live performances as well. If anyone (or myself) does him be careful when watching range videos, his “C#6” is actually a full voice slide up to C#5.

[mrrobot166]

Lene Lovich She's already claimed

[Rodney Blazershorts]

Welcome. If you look at this thread you will find an index with all claimed singers included.
