Mimi Parker (Low)
Chan Marshall / Cat Power
Nick Cave
Neil Young
Alan Sparhawk (Low, Retribution Gospel Choir)
Serge Gainsbourg
Jeff Buckley
Judith Holofernes (Wir Sind Helden)
J. Mascis
Ian Curtis (Joy Division) {thanks Hayden}
the Scala Choir

Some more that barely didn't make it to be in my top ten list:
Eddie Vedder
Mark Lanegan
Chris Cornell
Carol van Dijk (Bettie Serveert)
Karen Carpenter
Johnny Cash
Jacques Brel

I don't necessarily like SY for the vocals, even though I don't care for most of their instrumental tunes either. Lee is my fav though

Definately nowhere close to my top list:
Kurt Cobain <insert puke smiley>
