Those singers you enjoy,....that don't really have a great voice?

There have been successful singers in almost any style that realistically did not have a "golden" voice. Perhaps guilty pleasures. Who are yours?

And yeah, most singers would kill to have a voice like Roy’s.

If you like to listen to singers who can't sing high notes without being off key, be my guest. B
