    After seeing the Afghan Whigs live, I fully understand why one would include him on a list like this.

    Wow where is the love of woman singers?

    no including Ed.

    1) Van Morrison
    2) Stevie Wonder
    3) Emily Haines
    4) Mary J Blige
    5) Al Green

    I also have to say that i think Sting has a great voice but not a favorite singer.
