    Hmmmmm, since I have so much music that's hard to decide, most of music is alternative including punk rock & industrial & more, including stuff like Big Black, Ministry, Dead Kennedys, Black Sabbath & much more. However my answers might suprise some people.

    I'm not sure which is my favorite & I'm not sure if I'm thinking of everybody right now but how about........

    Vanessa Williams

    Chris Isaak

    Helios Creed

    Johnny Cash

    Lisa Gerrard(most of her career was in Dead Can Dance but has some solo albums out & worked with others, uncommon vocals very operatic).

    Brendan Perry(limited solo career so far, mostly was in Dead can Dance)

    Iggy Pop

    Frank Sinatra

    Roy Orbison

    David Bowie

    Johnny Thunders

    Andy Williams

    Jimi Hendrix

    KD Lang

    Elvis Presley

    Patsy Cline

    Tom Waits

    Sinead O' Connor

    If with a backing band also counts--then also--

    Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds

    Siouxsie & the Banshees

    Dave Vanian & the Phantom Chords(limited solo career so far, most his work's been in the Damned)

    Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros(limited solo career, most of his work was in the Clash, but unfortunately he's been dead for a while)

    I'd say it was a toss up between Vanessa Williams; Chris Isaak; Lisa Gerrard; Nick Cave & Siouxsie Sioux
