Since tier lists seem to be a pretty popular form of showing your personal opinions towards a certain thing (and following a discussion I had with the lovely Baronessa), I decided to try and compile something of a Singer Tier List for myself, and seeing as we already had a Top 10 Favourite Singers thread, I thought it would be an interesting topic for others to explore. In short, separate singers you've listened to at least somewhat substantially (listening to the odd track or two of theirs doesn't really constitute "substantial" to me) into different tiers of your choosing. You could divide into as many or as few tiers as you see fit - the only real criteria is that your tier list should be based on voices and not music quality (hence why Karen Carpenter is above Joni Mitchell in my list). If you're particularly passionate about some singers, you could even assemble a loose order within tiers, though this is optional (and probably more likely just to be on the singers you seriously do care about). {The Alex61 Queen List (INCOMPLETE)}
S(inger) Tier: Singers I would consider personal all-time favourites. Loosely ordered.
Kate Bush, Björk, Karen Carpenter, Annie Haslam, Regina Spektor, Ann Wilson, Tori Amos
A(rtist): Singers I am particularly fond of. Loosely ordered.
Fiona Apple, Alison Goldfrapp, Axl Rose, Stevie Nicks, Agnetha Fältskog, Cyndi Lauper, Happy Rhodes, Janelle Monáe, Sarah Brightman, Joni Mitchell, Geike Arnaert, Kate Miller-Heidke, Grimes, Nina Simone, Dolly Parton, Bat for Lashes, Eva Cassidy, Linda Perhacs, Debbie Harry, Beth Gibbons, Damien Rice, Sia, Vanessa Amorosi, Lisa Fischer, Susanna Hoffs, Jewel, Art Garfunkel, Christine McVie, Joanna Newsom, PJ Harvey, Kylie Minogue
B(lessed): Singers I like as opposed to love. Not ordered.
Alanis Morissette, Alicia Keys, Amy Lee, Andrew Vanwyngarden, Ani DiFranco, Aretha Franklin, Belinda Carlisle, Beyoncé, Billie Joe Armstrong, Bono, Carole King, Chrissy Amphlett, Dami Im, Dan Auerbach, Don McLean, Donna Summer, Emilie Autumn, Erykah Badu, Freddie Mercury, Hayley Williams, Jade Bird, Jessie J, Justin Hawkins, Lara Fabian, Laura Stevenson, Madonna, Martika, Maureen McGovern, Nico, Paul McCartney, Prince, Robyn, Steve Winwood
C(ommon): Singers I can appreciate even if I don't necessarily care for their voice. Not ordered.
Adele, Joss Stone, Mariah Carey, Morrissey, Siouxsie Sioux
D(readful): Singers I would never choose to listen to. Not ordered.
Adam Lopez, Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion, Christina Aguilera
Oh yeah, and obviously, don't take this too seriously - it is a thread for tier lists, after all :P |

I found the idea of highlighting what you tend to find exciting in singing interesting, so the weird picks are running wild now. I'm going off the tier template Alex61 gave me, so you'll have to excuse me speaking of myself in third person. {Sawyer-Type Singers}I want to know their secret, I want to occupy their headspace, I want to be them. I have no choice but to stan.
Alison Moyet
Annie Lennox
Billy Idol
Danny Elfman
Debbie Harry
Chrissie Hynde
Gwen Stefani
Happy Rhodes
Jim Morrison
Kimbra
Madonna
Michael Hutchence

Adam Lopez
Barbra Streisand
Celine Dion
Dimash Kudaibergen
Janis Joplin
Lara Fabian
Sonny Bono
Vince Neil Absolutely no regard for technique here, all personal preference. Any singer I didn't mention goes into an invisible mid-tier that lacks any judgement, including any obvious 'bad singer' that you may be thinking of. 8-) |

Fun times. Going just on voice I guess. Kind of hard because it's rare that I dislike just a voice actively. I hate certain styles (like that 'breathy indie girl' style) but since I don't listen to styles I don't like it's not to say honestly that I've listened to individual 'hated' voices widely. I might edit this a lot lol {Gods. Would Steal Any of These Voices}

Saw this and thought I’d give it a go. I appreciate a good, rangey singer, but when they show their range off too much (à la range wankery) I can’t abide.

Spencer Sotelo (I like Periphery. Dunno if I like his voice...)
Peter Nicholls (IQ get called a Genesis ripoff, and Nicholls can sound very much like a bad Peter Gabriel copy-cat sometimes. Like the music tho)
Andreas Prestmo (Singer for Wobbler. Weird voice)
Phil Mogg (Love his voice with early UFO, but not as big a fan of his later, darker timbre)
James LaBrie (Liked him up until I saw DT live, lol)
Chris Cornell (Too range-wanky for me, but he had a nice voice)
Kurt Cobain (Nowhere near the same hate I used to have for him. I grew up) |
