A wonderful voice, whether it’s a soaring soprano or a unique baritone, is indeed the foundation of great music. An iconic voice contributes to the creation of famous songs when it is combined with brilliant compositions and skilful musicianship. Take a look at the all-time most beautiful voice within the slideshow below, which includes R&B legends, opera singers, pop chanteuses, and everyone in between.
Barbra Streisand
Barbra Streisand’s unique voice has become a mainstay of American music since the 1960s, earning her the coveted EGOT – an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, as well as Tony. She’s released 50 full-length albums over the years and had successes with songs like “Woman in Love” and “Why Did I Choose You.”
Etta James
Etta James’ strong voice was immersed in her own real-life anguish, as seen by her legendary love ballad “At Last.” After charting in the early 1960s with songs like “All I Could Do Is Cry” and “I’d Rather Go Blind,” James made a resurgence in the late 1980s, releasing many albums and reintroducing her most famous songs to a new generation.
Aretha Franklin
Aretha Franklin’s distinctive voice pushed songs like “Respect” and “I Say A Little Prayer For You” into global hits, earning her the title of Queen of Soul. She also appears in the most remembered moment from the 1980 film “The Blues Brothers,” in which she performs her song “Think” in a genuinely legendary performance.
Whitney Houston
Whitney Houston’s voice will never be duplicated. She is probably the most well-known vocalist of her time. Houston’s effect on R&B has been both distinctive and durable, from breathtaking ballads like her interpretation of Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You” and “I Have Nothing” to irresistible pop successes like “I Wanna Dance With Somebody.”
Mariah Carey
Mariah Carey’s whistle notes are her hallmark, although she’s more than that. She has a vocal range that covers five full octaves. Carey, an outstanding composer as well as enduring voice, has earned 18 No. 1 songs, sold over 200 albums, and continues to create albums, most recently “Caution” in 2018.
