If Hayley's your #1 fave, who comes in 2nd?

Grace Bawden seems to have raced right up there, for me. <3

I have a lot of faves depending on mood and musical style.

In the crossover genre I would have to say Sissel and Tommy Körberg (among the original cast of Chess-the song Anthem was written for him, powerful booming voice-check him out!).

In the more pop/rock genre The Corrs, A-ha, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Sarah McLachlan, Queen, Coldplay and many more

Hi,

Agree with SteveMac. Has to be Bob Dylan. The greatest person in musical history, if I say so myself.

Would love Hayley to cover some of his songs. Top of the list (although not my favourite Dylan song) would be 'Every Grain Of Sand', which has a great melody and of course, incredible lyrics. Think it would suit Hayley's voice.

Regards
Bill

Hmm... such a difficult question, XD.... Hayley is definately my number one.. but I have really wide musical tastes.

Into the classical/traditional singers, for his voice and technic, the master is José Carreras. A famale artist who has blown me away but who has not such a wide production as Hayley, is Méav. Then, as a traditional band, Clannad are really a legend for me. And as a singer-songwriter, a Catalan artist Lluis Llach. No doubts about my favorite composer, it is Ludwig Van Beethoven.

Then, going into more rock and pop music, my favorite one is definately Bryan Adams, but love many others, Richard Marx, The Beatles, Maná, The Corrs, Celine Dion, La Oreja de Van Gogh, REM, Elton John, Shakira, Rosana Arbelo... and a big etc, even Cascada is between my favorites.

I'll add Camilla Kerslake to my list! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Wow,
I can undoubtedly say Hayley is my favorite female singer. Never have I heard a voice that angelic.
But there are many #2 females, including Carrie Underwood & Leona Lewis.
My favorite male singer is probably Chad Kroeger, from the Canadian band Nickelback. And I also like Ronan Keating very much.

Its hard to pick just one singer though, since there are SO many!
