You put her on your list. I ain't no slave. Wassup now?

So I don't know about the Best of all time. I don't honestly think I can judge that being only 18 years old. I don't know if this is asking for my favorite or who you believe is the best ever so...in my oppinion:
Best Ever: Ohh far toom many but I'll limit it to the one and only Julie Andrews, Bernadette, Brian Stokes Mitchell...
Funny, I don't think you realize I WANT him to kick my ass.

Personal taste aside - and truth be told, she doesn't quite 'ring my bell' - but it's hard to argue with the history and career scope of Ethel Merman. And I'm very willing to cede that the experience of her depended on seeing her live.
Also, I would add James Earl Jones, Alfred Lunt & Lynn Fontaine, Geraldine Page, Len Cariou, Shirley Booth, Rex Harrison, Richard Burton and Frank Langella to the serious lists already posted.
And just because, a short list of single performers who have left their mark: Judy Garland, Bette Midler, Lily Tomlin, Spalding Gray and John Leguizamo.
