  7.2 "You know a force from heaven. You know something that God made. And Aretha is a gift from God." Mary J Blige
   escafeld's rating:
 
7.4 "When he sings, he's not just singing soulfully. He is imparting his soul. You are hearing something deep within the man." Billy Joel
   escafeld's rating:
7.5 "There is a difference between people who sing and those who take that voice to another, otherworldly place, who create a euphoria within themselves." Robert Plant
   escafeld's rating:
8.4 "Sam Cooke reached down deep with pure soul. He had the rare ability to do gospel the way it's supposed to be — he made it real, clean, direct." Van Morrison
escafeld's rating:
7.8 "There was a tremendous intimacy in everything John Lennon did, combined with a formidable intellect. That is what makes him a great singer." Jackson Browne.
   escafeld's rating:
7.8 "There's no sound like Marvin Gaye: the way he sang so softly, almost gently — but also with so much power. That came straight from the heart." Alicia Keys
   escafeld's rating:
7.6 "Bob Dylan did what very, very few singers ever do. He changed popular singing. And we have been living in a world shaped by Dylan's singing ever since." Bono
escafeld's rating:
7.5 "It was the intent with which he sang. He was all emotion. Playing live with him was just energy and relentless joy." Booker T. Jones
escafeld's rating:
7.6 "To me, Stevie Wonder's voice always sounds like tears of joy — like he's right on the verge of crying, but it's out of glee and peace, as opposed to pain." Cee-Lo
escafeld's rating:
7.3 "James Brown was never just the voice. It was the whole package. And there was that scream. It was like an inner voice. It sounded like an assertion of rights of primitive man." Iggy Pop

I am surprised Nina Simone never made it into the top ten, she puts a lot of emotion into her performances. Still - a great list! Very informative.
