Q's Top 20 Frontmen

Where's Ozzy?

Would have voted for Albarn myself

IMO Matt Bellamy deserves to be in there....he is a brilliant frontman and the variety of songs that Muse belt out makes them my personal favourites over the last 10-15 years.

Whereas Liam Gallagher can f**k right off, number 1?? Where are the likes of Ian Brown, Morrisey, and half of the above that have been quoted...

The best of the best currently kicking it - in my opinion are: Jake Black AKA The Very Reverend Dr. D. Wayne Love and  Rob Spragg AKA Larry Love from Alabama 3.

Anyone who's caught them live will just know i'm right. 

Axel Rose anyone....

Freddie Mercury is THE best frontman for sure . Just watch the way he had the whole crowd in the palm of his hand during the original LiveAid concert .
Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden not on there at all . Ya gotta be havin a laugh . When you see Maiden live and Bruce is wavin around the Union Jack at the start of The Trooper , you'll see how good he is . Strong voice and the way he interacts with the crowd is awesome to behold .

1) Liam Gallagher
2) Bono
3) Freddie Mercury
4) Damon Albarn
5) Chris Martin
6) Matt Bellamy
7) Jim Morrison
Bob Marley
9) Paul McCartney
10) John Lennon
11) Robbie Williams
12) Debbie Harry
13) Mick Jagger
14) Morrissey
15) John Lydon (a. k. a Johnny Rotten)
16) James Brown
17) Bruce Springsteen
18) Robert Plant
19) Tom Meighan
20) Joe Strummer

No Anthony Kiedis, Zach De LaRocha, Eddie Vedder and one big kn*b up top.

EDIT: No Hendrix or Cobain either. Worst list EVER!

No Josh Holme or David Grohl either.

Everytime I look at this list it gets worse

If anyone buys this month's Q magazine it's got the full list.

1-100

Wouldn't have put Bono in there, or Liam Gallagher at the top, that's ridiculous.

Hugely flawed list, actually.

Morrissey - First of the gang to die

I love the man.

I never took to Morrissey, though the Smiths were boss. Actually, might put Panic on now.

what a sh*t list.

I think Gallagher and Bono should both be outside the top ten and springsteen, strummer and chirs martin should be higher.

Springsteen was 50 in that video and he's still doing shows like it now, he's boss.

I never took to Morrissey, though the Smiths were boss. Actually, might put Panic on now.

To be honest I dont listen much of Morrissey solo career either (I prefer The Smiths too), but I love watching live performances on youtube and this is one of my favorites. Moz is pure class.
