I like ppl who can go high and low. I like Naotaro Moriyama.

ANZA is very good..If only she did more pop stuff again..but shes screwed her voice with all the screming..I think

THANKS :vbhappy

of course i love ayu, but i think hikki and keiko are really good too.

MISIA no doubt, besides that, you can't go wrong with Ayaka Hirakara, the vocal performance in "Juputer" is nearly flawless.

MISIA! :)

misia has a great voice! the lead vocal in B'z is great too.. cant rem his name, but the way he can go so high and loud n low the next moment w/o singing off key is amazing

Koshi Inaba? :P

Kohmi Hirose, hands down. I don't think she's that popular, but she's got on hell of a voice. The high notes she hits.. *whistles* @.@ she can hit high notes just like Mariah Carey!

AIKO has a great voice.

Chihiro Onitsuka has such powerful vocals :) It is very impressive.
Shiina ringo has awesome vocals...when she wants too...:( However most of the time she forcefully make weird annoying proposital noises with her voice which aren't very nice. But when she's singing more seriously (and less crazier) her voice sounds great.
Mika Nakashima's voice sounded so immature at her debut. It has been evolving way too surprsingly so it won't be long before her voice turn into something pretty awesome because it seems to be getting better and better.
I love KEIKO's voice too. Her voice is quite unique and it adds such a great contrast to the "a song is born" single version.
Misia can sing better live than in studios...it is amazing...I just wish her songs were a bit more interesting since I think it's such a waste of a great voice :shrug

I think Hitomi Yaida has a very nice voice too! :ysmile

Hmmm...

Hizumi of D'espairs Ray! I LOVE his voice! And he would be tied with Kyo of Dir en grey or Kaya of Schwarz Stein. Gackt has his moments, and HYDE's Laruku days were great too.

As for female.... Misia has a strong voice. Onitsuka Chihiro... Keiko of globe would have to be my pick. I adore her voice.

Southern all stars ;)

I agree. MISIA is a great vocalist. Other singers that I think are pretty good are Chihiro Onitsuka and Ayaka Hirahara.

ayuuuuuuuuu

I dunno who's the best but my fave male voice would be gackt, can range so low and yet so high like a woman's voice XD

And yes, misia's voice is amazing ^^

Onitsuka Chihiro, she one of the few reasons i got into slow song.

Ayu and Hikki XD
