This is a really tough question you've posed, Leo. But it's pretty easy for me - my favorite, without a moment's hesitation, is Katy Perry. Shakira is a close second.

(Also, you spelled "Hatfield" wrong.)

And you ?
So is it about whom one considers to be the best singer, or about one's favourite singer?

The first would be about range, technique, live qualities etc.

What about range, technique, etc. so that there would be a difference? In other words, you'd argue that range, technique etc. would factor into one of them in a way that they wouldn't factor into the other presumably. Well, describe that in some detail. (Because I'm going to argue that the distinction ends up being incoherent.)

I'm just saying that some of my favourite singers aren't singers you would consider to be particularly good from a technical point of view.

I don't really know if this counts since he had so many genres over the years, but I'll go with David Bowie as my personal favorite not for his stage presence or anything, but just in how his voice makes me feel.

Okay, my serious answer now: in all of music, my favorite singer is Sam Cooke. Limiting myself to rock, uh, Nick Cave?
