    MEGADETH are one of the ****test bands ever formed. Absolute crap. Rage against the machine are equally ****.

    And you talk the talk alright
    But do you walk the walk
    Or catch the train
    You wanted it, you got it
    But you don't want it now

    Now it's getting dark
    And the sky looks sticky
    More like black treacle than tar
    Black treacle
    Somebody told the stars
    You're not coming out tonight
    And so they found a place to hide

    As a singer myself this is a question I ask myself every day.

    Nina Simone
    Antony Hegarty
    Ian Gillan
    Johnny Cash
    Toots Hibbert
    Inge Beckmann

    6 names, that's right! Deal with it!

    Both Simone and Hegarty have a certain quality to their voices that transends gender, their voices are such pure instruments and as such, immensly powerful.

    Some of the notes Gillan hits (singing with Deep Purple) are astounding, Child In Time ranks among one of my favourite vocal performances of all time.

    Johnny Cash, need I say more? He has one of the most recognisable voices in the world, sweet and low and tainted with sadness.

    Toots (and The Maytals) has one of those voices you can't help but smile when you hear it. I first heard him covering Radiohead's Let Down and the level of emotion he puts into the song without sounding emo, it's so natural. He's a joyful person too, in between songs he preaches love and you can't help but get caught up by his heavily-accented tones.

    Inge Beckmann is the singer in South African group, Lark. A fantastic range and purity in her voice is boosted by various manipulations as you would any other instrument. Much like Alison Goldfrapp, she uses her voice to it's full potential by taking advantage of special effects.

    Johnny Cash <ok> .
    His cover of Hurt by Nine Inch Nails is one of the best covers I've ever heard.

    Elvis
    Frank Sinatra
    Graham Bonnet (Rainbow)
    Bruce Dickinson (around the time of Number of the Beast)
    The Everley Brothers - either of them

    Singing postman is excellent

    I had a girl, really nice girl, down in Wroxham Way,
    She were wholly nice to me back in the old school days,
    She would smile all the while, but Daddy didn't know all,
    What she used to say to me behind the garden wall.
    "Hev you got a loight boy? Hev you got a loight?"

    Then one day, she went away, I don't see her no more,
    Till by chance I see her down along the Mundesley shore,
    She was there, twice as fair. Would she now be true?
    So when she sees me passing by, she say, "I'm glad that's you!
    Have you got a light boy, have you got a light?"

    Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
    But she's my little nicotine girl.

    Now you'll see, her and me, never more to part,
    We would wander hand in hand together in the dark,
    The one night I held her tight, in the old back yard,
    But when I tried to hold her close,
    She say, "Now hold you hard!"
    Hev you got a loight boy, hev you got a loight?"

    Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
    But she's my little nicotine girl.

    By and by, we decide, on the wedding day,
    So we toddles off to church to hear the preacher say,
    "Do you now take this vow, to honour all the time?"
    Before I had the chance to stop her, she begins to pine.
    "Have you got a loight boy, have you got a loight?"

    Molly Windley, she smokes like a chimley,
    But she's my little nicotine girl.

    Now the doctor tells me a daddy I will be,
    So when I ask him, "What's the score?"
    He say there's only three,
    So here I go, cheerio, to see how she do fare,
    I know what she will say to me as soon as I get there

    "Have you got a loight ..... boy."
