Thanks! Just few suggestions are needed. When their number will be 50, I´ll divide males to two polls by alphabetical order. Females will include in the third separate poll.

I also like very much Greg Lake, but the problem with him is that I just haven't heard him sing quiet the same way he sang in King Crimson with ELP (specially Epitaph); and Jimmy Spitaleri (from Metamorfosi), who has a tremendously poweful and cool voice, but it would have been useless to nominate him since surely enough not many people will mention him here (perhaps nobody else).


So, I guess I'll have to specify my choices in a different way now:
Male: Jon Anderson, Francesco Di Giacomo, and Jimmy Spitaleri. I got to leave Greg Lake out, but I still like his singing very much. And as has been mentioned too, Freddie Mercury is great too.

Female: Annie Haslam, and unfortunatley I don't know many other female singers in prog, so I guess I have to go with Tarja Turunen (from Nightwish) and Simone Simons (from Epica), which at least are listed in this site, though they are by far more metal than prog. However, I guess we already know who the winner will be in the female part of these threads. The thread might just as well have been left mixed with males and females just to see how well Annie Haslam would have done against the male singers.
