While they can all sing, I don't think any of those are great singers. Undeniably, they made some of the best pop ever made though, and have an abundance of talent between them.
For a great singer, I think I'd look to someone like Gary Puckett or Gene Pitney.

I went with Daryl Hall. The man has got such a smooth voice with dynamite range. He hasn't lost anything over time, either.
His solo album, Can't Stop Dreaming, from a few years ago is breathtaking. Just great, great stuff.

Here's the next vote for Rod Stewart plus I think that Joe Cocker is missing in this list.

For personal reasons it would have to be Paul Simon  I'm very attached to his "Scarborough Faire" vocal performance (though Sarah Brightman ain't bad either  )

Stevie Wonder's the only one on that list who really convinces me, although Daryll Hall has had his moments.
Rod Stewart, especially his early 70s Faces and solo work, is greatly underappreciated, although the American Songbook series was pretty unforgiveable.
