Nothing flashy with either of these two.  Nothing wrong with Phil, but Bono gets my vote.

I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Remember the mark of a great vocalist is if TAC hates them with a special passion

I've never been a Bono fan. Phil gets my vote.

Collins is great, but Bono wins this easily for me.  Just listen to the live version of Bad from Rattle and Hum. /thread

Bono's voice is so unique.  I love Phil but Bono get's my vote.

not an easy choice.  I think some of Bono's more unusual vocal stylings take him down just a notch for me.  In a competition with lesser vocalists (because I think he's very good) it wouldn't be an issue.  But Collins is good enough that I think it breaks the tie for me.

So Collins it is.

Don't care for either that much, but like Phil Collins better.

They are both very distinctive.  Tough call.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.
