My Top 12...

Bands and artists with high voices!  Whether it's because they're singing falsetta, have a naturally high singing voice, or can just hit notes so high that your ears can bleed, you've gotta admit, it's good to have a break from cookie monster growls once in a while.  And note that I'm not putting any generic pop-punk bands on here, because there are so many of those bands that have singers with high voices that it's really nothing special.  And yes, I had to choose 11, because the number 12 is underrated. (:

12. Michael Jackson.



Believe it or not, MJ was quite the stud back in the dizz-ay.  And you can't help but wonder how he hits some of the high notes in some of his songs.  Even if he is a creepy child mollestor, he can sing!  And don't even bother denying it, no matter how creepy he is...nobody doesn't love his music.  And if they claim not to, they have obviously never heard Beat It. 

11. Anthrax



Or at least, some of their stuff...not the rap-metal stuff like Bring the Noise, where the vocals are anything but high.  But in what I think is their better stuff, like Antisocial and Madhouse, he sounds great and hits some hella high notes.


10. Wolfmother



The vocals in this band are pretty damn good, and even though some songs have higher vocals than others, it's clear that he has a great voice.

9. Coheed & Cambria



This band is incredible.  Not only can Claudio Sanchez hit ridiculous notes, but his hair has a mind of its own.  I KNOW IT.

8. Rush



LOVE.

7. The Who



Even though this band has great songs where Roger Daltrey's lower vocals sing - for instance, Love Reign O'er Me, which is definitely one of my favorite Who songs - Pete Townshend's higher voice is great, and he could sing any song he wanted and make it sound pretty much godly.

6. The Beatles



Okay, so some of their songs' vocals aren't high at all, but regardless of what song it is, they're so good that they had to be on the list.

5. Iron Maiden



Do I honestly need to explain?!  The notes that Bruce Dickinson can hit are freakin' insane!

4. Yes



You may think you've never heard this band, but I guarantee you've heard a song like Roundabout or Owner of a Lonely Heart at least once without realizing it.  From the instrumentals to the vocals, they're incredible, and Jon Anderson's high, falsetta vocals are so out of place that they sound incredible.

3. Queen



NO EXPLAINATION NEEDED.  THE END.

2. Led Zeppelin



So maybe Robert Plant's voice isn't anywhere near as high as Freddie Mercury's or Jon Anderson's, but it's still high, and it's still amazing, and I'm still obsessed with this band!

1. Guns N' Roses



These guys could go on either the lowest vocal list OR the highest vocal list.  Axl can hit ridiculous notes, whether it's at the tippy top or the very bottom of the scale.  Bottom line, he has the best range EVAR.  <3

The end. (:
