Number 10 or the ring Heights Kate Bush:)
Kate Bush possesses an extraordinary voice and progressive visual style which earned her acclaim from both fans and critics:)
Weathering Heights serves as Bush's biggest hit and with good reason as it sets on full display all of the singers incredible vocal range:)
Song has been recorded twice by Bush and both versions are melodic master pieces:)
Which hinge on Bush's soaring vocals from the song sparse intro right on through to the booming chorus?
Finally Bush lets a trip alongside the songs lead guitar accompanied outro proving her place as a member of art rock royalty with her performance
Which still evokes chills today?
Number nine unchained melody' the Righteous Brothers
Unchained melody' was written in 1955 and has been performed by a number of different artists over the years
It's the version recorded a decade later by the Righteous Brothers, which has since gone on to become the definitive version
Thanks largely in part to Bobby Hatfield soaring vocal performance
Unchained melody' actually starts off quite slow and somber, but half-filled soon kicks things up with a level of emotion
Which is completely raw and delivered with unbelievable passion? Oh?
That was the drums kicking around the two-minute mark forget about it there isn't a dry eye in the house
Number eight dream on Aerosmith
A good power ballad can be a wonderful thing and once in a while it can even define a band's career
Proof of this can be seen in the career of Aerosmith who scored a massive iconic hit with this track from their 1973 self-titled debut
Fremont is another slow burn of sorts a
sensitive song composed an F minor
Which reaches the crescendo a little past the halfway mark as Steven Tyler's measured vocals duel with Joe Perry's lead guitar
Pilers powerful scream serves as the linchpin of dream on a gold standard against which many other classic rock singers have been measured
Number seven I believe in a thing called love the darkness
Spirit of classic Thin Lizzy lived on within the classic rock style of England's the darkness
although the falsetto singing style of darkness frontman Justin Hawkins was probably the furthest thing from Phil Lynott's bluesy howl I
Believe in a thing called love was the darkness his biggest international hit and quickly became infamous for Hawkins trouser pinching vocal approach
Thought everyone can pull off an ultra high falsetto with the sort of conviction Hawkins musters throughout this twin guitar epic
But Justin nails it with style and sleaze despair
Number six, and I am Telling You I'm not going Jennifer Holliday
Power this is perhaps how best to describe and I'm telling you I'm not going a key song from the Broadway hit Dreamgirls the song
Earned Jennifer Holliday a Tony and a Grammy Award in 1982 for her absolutely inspiring performance
while Jennifer Hudson would also score a hit with her take on the film version in 2006
The song is incredibly difficult for even the most seasoned singer to perform
Has it never lets up for a second demanding range tone and yes power to do, and I am Telling You
I'm not going the justice it deserves
Luckily Holliday had all of these qualities and more delivering the vocal performance of a lifetime
When I was number five all by myself Celine Dion
The next song on our list is another with a long history of cover versions
after its original artist Eric Carmen adapted it from a Rachman and off concerto in 1975
And Harmons all by myself is still remembered fondly today, but at Celine Dion's 1996 version
Which is even more vocally impressive as she hits an immensely powerful high note shortly before the three-minute mark turning
What was initially a great pop song into a tour de force for the French Canadian singer to shine?
Trust us when we say that you do not want to attempt this one at karaoke
Number four Bohemian Rhapsody Queen
There are many reasons why Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is an incredible difficult song for just about anyone to sing for starters
It's composed in multiple keys and shift styles and temples from a ballad arrangement to operatic accompaniment and straight-up hardrock
Then there's the nature of the vocals which consists of all four members of Queen layering their tracks in the studio to create a larger-than-life
atmosphere I sexually identify as a dolphin

There are - so toes deep basses and our rock screams to tackle all combined by lead singer Freddie Mercury and company
Simply stated mercury was an amenable vocal talent and only the bravest singer should even attempt at laying their stamp on this one
From three emotions, Mariah Carey
It's not an exaggeration to describe Mariah Carey as one of the foremost vocal talents of her generation
Her prowess as a singer has been well-documented over a career, which has spanned almost 30 years including such hits as vision of love
honey and hero
Emotions might be the ultimate Mariah Carey Jam however one, which showcases the singer's uncanny ability to reach glass-shattering high notes
The song is also a great example of the sort of light and breezy R&B which dominated charts in the 90s
Yet is punctuated by Carey's charm and charisma while her vocal histrionics steal the show from any pretender who might lay claim to her throne
Number two lovin you Minnie Riperton
Minnie Riperton was the og when it comes to striking gold with this sort of approach as
Evidence by lovin you and his chart-topping success back in 1975
The song is backed by a sunny keyboard performance from Stevie Wonder while Riperton sings a sweet ode to love and sex that hits the
Stratosphere when she hits those famous whistle notes
Fun fact Minnie Riperton is actually Maya
Rudolph's mother and can be heard singing her daughter's name during the outro on unedited and album versions of the song
Before we name our number one pick here are a few honorable mentions
And number one I will always love you Whitney Houston
We're not taking anything away from the absolutely killer original version of I will always love you recorded by country legend - Dolly Parton in
1973 for many however it's the arrangement Whitney Houston used for the 1992 film The Bodyguard, which serves as the most well known
Houston used Linda Ronstadt's 1975 cover as a basis for her version if she ultimately makes it her own
Thanks to an incredible vocal performance
Houston's uncanny ability to balance vulnerability and power not only makes I will always love you a stone-cold classic
But it served as a defining pivotal moment of Houston's career as one of the great all-time singers
