Well... okay Cornell is REALLY REALLY good and I think if you go back a few years he was the best. But he is older than Myles and Myles has a better voice at the moment. It is REALLY close though... Chris puts much more passion into his singing, also. But speaking technically, I think Myles has the edge. I do actually like Chris Cornell more, though.

Yeah...I'm a fan of CC's, too. Myles - technically the best in the biz. I think Myles will sing with more passion when he writes some of the material for the new AB album - lyrics he can relate to.

While we're on this kinda subject...

Here's a link to a PBF album review for Weathered. Two comments to take note of:

http://www.passionbreedsfollowers.co.../cougar2.shtml

1. (para 6) And there's no denying he's (Stapp) been blessed with rock's best voice since Soundgarden's Chris Cornell.

2. (para 11) Unlike Cornell, Stapp developed the early ability to keep the vocal histrionics to a minimum.

If you had a choice of the three, who would you choose to be your lead vocalist - Kennedy, Cornell or Stapp?

Myles obviously.

Re: Mark's singing
 
Who... Myles... Or, Cornell, as said before it's a close call... But I think Myles... Stapp's in the bottom on my list actually...

Hmm...I'd have to pick Myles, but Chris is virtually the same for me. And Stapp is behind them, although I still enjoy his voice.

Re: Mark's singing
 
Wow, between Myles, Chris and Scott, I'd take Chris first, Myles second, and Ashlee Simpson third.





















Of course, that is negating age. If I had to pick one for the next ten years I'd probably go Myles first since Chris seems to be tailing off a bit.

I think I'd still go with Stapp's voice as long as he kept it trained. On the other hand, Myles is more versatile and he's working on his lower tones, which might come to be interesting on the next album.

Bottom line is I wish I had Stapp's voice and I wish I could sing like Myles, that'd be perfect! LOL!

Cornell isn't as good as he used to be. Take the Audioslave live in Cuba DVD, for example. I don't know if he was sick or not that day, but it's clear he's not on the top of his game.

Chris's voice is not that great these days compared to the soundgarden days or even his solo days...Myles is better than the three...then I choose mark's singing...stapp is somewhere way down on the list of vocalists,

If I could have any of them in their prime.....I'd probably go with Cornell. He was absolutely amazing during the early/mid-90s. Not only did he have great range, but he had so much passion(and he still does).

Next, I'd choose Stapp. He was great, imo, during the late 90s(MOP/HC tours). Not only was he at his prime vocally, but he also was very charismatic(and still is) and energetic on stage. Not to mention his ability as a lyricist during that time.

Finally, I'd go with Myles. He's got a great voice and wrote some very good lyrics for MF4, but he's not that charismatic on stage(imo). Not quite as good of a performer on stage as Stapp and there's not quite as much passion behind the vocals like Cornell has. So that's why he'd be third on my list.

Now, if I had to go with how each is currently, I'd probably go with Stapp, then Myles and then Cornell. I've seen some live bootlegs from Stapp's solo tour and he sounds pretty good and seems to still have that stage presence he had during the MOP/HC tour. Myles still has great range, but I still don't think he's as good of a performer on stage as Stapp is. And Cornell's vocals, unfortunately, have deteriorated. I still like him a lot, but he's definitely not at his prime anymore. So that's why he'd be third on my list.
