FAVORITE MALE SINGERS OF ANY GENRE

Well, we can't leave the guys out can
we?  Who are your favorite male singers of any
genre?  I'm not talking bands here but solo artists.  Of
course, if they were in a band and also went solo you can still name
them such as Jon Bon Jovi or Richie Sambora both of whom are members
of the group Bon Jovi but have also gone solo.  Here's some of
mine from times past to the present:



Frank Sinatra,
Perry Como, Dean Martin, Brook Benton, Jerry Butler, Conway Twitty,
Johnny Cash, Charley Pride, Johnny Tillotson, Donovan,
Eddie Cochran, Gene McDaniels, Glen Yarborough, Neil Young, Bob
Dylan, John Fogerty, John Mellencamp, Eric Clapton, and so many more.



You may also name
your favorite male singer from a band but not the band itself. 
For instance, we all know that Diane loves the band Aerosmith
but she would say Steven Tyler.

    How about "Welcome to the Jungle"?  Though I must admit "Sweet Child 'O Mine" was always getting played on the jukebox in the bars. 

    Well i finally get to reply to this comment without the OOPS! message. LOL!


    "Welcome to the Jungle" is what i call GN"R's anthem, i think they open EVERY show with that song, but like u say, "Sweet Child O' Mine" is by far, the most requested and sung of them all.

      No, I really liked him as an artist but EVERYONE always mentions him ... I was trying NOT to jump on that bandwagon.  Frankly, one of my cousins got me very interested in him (as an individual) back when he was in the Beatles.  She let me read his book "In His Own Write" , which I thought was fantastic.  John was the rebel of the bunch, how could you not love that?


    I never did like doing what everyone expected.

    Well, I'm glad to hear that you really did like him after all.  There's nothing wrong with being a rebel.  Of course, now I keep hearing that song in my head "He's A Rebel". LOL

    "Welcome to the Jungle" is for GN"R what "You Give Love A Bad Name" is for Bon Jovi.  I only have one CD by GN"R and that's a greatest hits CD.  I don't know why I never got that much into them except for certain songs.  They are good so I'll have to check them out some more.

    Bon Jovi just wrapped up their tour on July 15, 2008 in Madison Square Garden.  No future tours planned at this time so I guess he's just hanging out and looking good.  You can go to www.bonjovi.com and see his video for "I Love This Town" which he did for postseason baseball.  It's great and he looks awesome as usual.
