Those 4 along with Dio should be your top 5. There's no freakin way james hetfield has a chance of being in the top singers...

Matt Barlow

out of this pathetic list of only 2 Dio all day long Hetfield is not only a little bitch but he relies on autotune more than lil wayne just saw them live tonight and once again was easily one of the shittiest live performances I've ever seen by any band

Firstly, everyone raging in here is a faggot, pure and simple. Monster666 - shut the fuck up troll.
Gowens - shut the fuck up troll

As far as the topic goes, the whole thing is retarded because firstly, Dio > Hetfield but not because Hetfield is shit - just coz Dio is Dio.

And secondly, there is NO WAY you can compact all metal singers to a poll of 10, let alone 2. You've gone and missed out some of the most important vocalists - and this thread is just stupid.

/end rant, bring the rage homosexuals.

you know nothing about metal stop trying to defent fagtallica

How can you guys even compare a legend to a pop star...
Doing a concert without a mic for iron maiden? Check.

hetfield can't even perform his own vocals lol
