Daphne Rubin Vega - especially when she was in Les Miz

Just the purest, most angelic voice I have ever heard on a Broadway stage.

The range, depth, and sheer power of Sara Ramirez's voice is astounding.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

As far as the boys, Gavin Creel's voice is so powerful and pure and even though I will get heat for it, I LOVE Josh Strickland's soulful belting. I think he has a terrific voice.

As far as the ladies, I was surprised to see no one list Christine Ebersole yet. Her voice is sublime on every level. A master class in singing. She's my favorite.

James Barbour (he has no peer); plus Douglas Sills, Steve Pasquale (when is he going to star in a musical?), Audra McDonald and Stephanie J. Block come to mind immediately. From the past: Sally Ann Howes.

Idina Menzel

I'm not one of those young, screaming, never seen a show before girls either. I know she doesn't necessarily sing healthily or properly, but there's just something about the tone and rawness of her voice that I love. It's very unique and is always full of emotion (even when she is flat or screaming lol).

Kicking it old school real fast to say John Raitt (no one, but no one, sings "Soliloquy" like him), Barbara Cook, Carol Lawrence, and Donna McKechnie.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

"John Raitt (no one, but no one, sings "Soliloquy" like him)"

What do you think of this (Anthony Warlow's) rendition?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v00lsa0_mhg

I find it transcendently amazing.

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

It's beautiful, but I don't know, something about Raitt's version is untouchable to my ears. Warlow's rendition is stunning, but John Raiit gets under the song in a way I just love.

And when he chooses to go up the B flat at the end instead of the F...I die.

Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.
