I'm only winding you up CF. There's a bit of skewed grammar in there and if you repeat the quote in a knees up mother brown accent it could've been uttered by a stall owner in walford.

Fergal Sharkey that warble aint everyones cup of tea and some of his solo stuff was pants but who before him does he sound like? Edith Piaff at a stretch. Great unique voice with strength and character.

Agree with those two. Cathal Coughlan especially has a fantastic voice. "Town to Town" is one of the best Irish singles ever. Stephen Ryan of the Stars of Heaven also has a great voice.

You're all wrong. It's...


Johnny Logan!

It must be Van Morrison, Sinead O'Connor for the ladies

Joseph Locke worth a mention too!

Mic Christopher.

The winner by 100 miles.

Mick Flannery also has a fantastic voice.

It's amazing the Neil Hannon hasn't had a mention so far.

It's tough to argue this one. Hardly any of them have amazing technique, and their styles come from their imperfections. Attitude and personality have as much to do with all these singers as pure voice.
