Gilmour's voice is beautiful, but the theatral aspect of Waters' voice in The Wall, especially, impresses me even more

Some of the classics off the top of my head:
Summer '68, Paint Box, Remember A Day, Seesaw - Rick Wright
Echoes - Wright & Gilmour harmonizing
One Of These Days - the one spoken line is Nick Mason
Breathe - Gilmour/Wright again I believe
Time - Gilmour (verse), Wright (chorus)
Money - pure Gilmour
Us & Them - verses Gilmour, chorus Gilmour/Wright (Waters might also be in the chorus harmony, not sure...)
Brain Damage/Eclipse - Waters
Shine On... - Waters
Have A Cigar - guest lead vocal by Roy Harper
Wish You Were Here - Gilmour
Dogs - all Gilmour until the "Gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused" part
Everything else on Animals is by Waters
Another Brick Part II - Gilmour/Waters in unison
Hey You - Gilmour up until "But it was only a fastasy...", Waters thereafter
Comfortably Numb - Waters (verse), Gilmour (chorus)

thanks.
by the looks of it I choose Gilmour but Waters and Wright are not too far behind

Pink Floyd is quite uniq in that allmost all mebers sing and have preety good voices not many bands have so many good singers, the only one i can think of whuld be the Beatles. and ofcourse the Who keith moon is awsome  Well okay meby there are some bands with more then one singer but most of em keep it to 1. Well my favorite its Gilmour no doubt, he have most power. its a bit like Deltry and Townshend, water is Townshend and he know he cant realy sing but still its hes songs so he most of the time want to sing em even if Gilmoure whuld do it much beter. Big egos thos music genius

My vote goes to Gilmour, an excellent singer, and he still keeps his
voice. Waters' started singing/speaking too much from The Wall onwards.

1. David Gilmour 
2. Rick Wright
3. Syd Barrett
4. Roger Waters  j/k, I like his voice (before he lost it anyway), but it is nowhere near as "pleasant" as the other three IMO.

Of course, Mr. David Gilmour.
He is the voice and the soul of the wonderful band that is Pink Floyd!

Mason was terrific in One of These Days. Bur seriously talking, Syd and David have extremaly good voices. Very nice and warm. But I also love the Waters vocal on Wish You Were Here, Animals or The Wall. So i won't vote

Well You forgot Roy Harper(Have a cigar) and of course Richard Wright(Summer'68, Remember a day, etc.), and Nick Mason never was a lead singer in any song... but did some backing vocals on The wall live!
Still, the best pink floyd singer (well, my favourite) is definitely David Gilmour!
