It was his first public appearance after the death of his father, and he dedicated it to his father. He moved the entire audience to tears, he sang it so beautifully.
Andrea Bocelli is my favorite! Absolutely one of, if not the best. Even when you may not even understand the words to his songs being that they are in Italian, you definitely get the feeling and the understanding of what he is signing about. I believe that at the end of the month he is releasing a new CD titled 'Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana' Another one of my favorite songs is 'Canto Della Terra' Don Cardi

Although the song has absolutely NOTHING to do the the holidays which I hate when they do that on Christmas albums...it is in fact a lovely piece and their voices harmonize exquisitely. Apple

And you liar, teller of tall tales: you trample all the Lord's commandments underfoot, you murder, steal, commit adultery, and afterward break into tears, beat your breast, take down your guitar and turn sin into a song. Shrewd devil, you know very well that God pardons singers no matter what they do, because he can simply die for a song.

In addition to many of those already listed, how about Jay Black (the second "jay", and not Jay Traynor, the first "jay") from Jay and the Americans. Powerful, accurate voice with great range.
...maybe not the best voice ever, but vastly underrated and overlooked...and in a class with many of yesterday and today's pop singers listed in this discussion...

Without question, Frank Sinatra. He is American Music. He sings a song in a way that any man would sing it if he could.

I don't think a best exists. But if I had to name my favorite, I would say Thom Yorke. He has a very original and innovative tone that everyone seems to be immitating now.
"Somebody told me when the bomb hits, everybody in a two mile radius will be instantly sublimated, but if you lay face down on the ground for some time, avoiding the residual ripples of heat, you might survive, permanently fucked up and twisted like you're always underwater refracted. But if you do go gas, there's nothing you can do if the air that was once you is mingled and mashed with the kicked up molecules of the enemy's former body. Big-kid-tested, motherf--ker approved."
