Who was the superior vocalist in your opinion? (we're talkin' singing here, not frontman presence) Tough one, isn't it?! Both were powerful singers. Both had unique styles. I guess it boils down to which style you prefer It's *nearly* neck & neck w/ me, but I'd have to ultimately give it to Freddie. He had such range. Such a high & clear voice. I mean, so did Robert, but Robert was more a wailer. Freddie was closer being the natural singer.

What say you?

I guess, I'd say Freddie. I was about to say, how could anyone
say Freddie was better than Robert? But then, did you ever notice, as good of a singer Plant was, he always sang things with that crazy accent and you didn't know what the hell he was saying?:confused: "From the dwork of Sayt'ns Daurghter, and it only goes to show..." (Lyrics from Houses of the Holy--the song, that is...Great song, but what's he saying??)

Heck, Robert Plant said he didn't even like Stairway to Heaven.:eek:
