What's so wrong with it? I'd say, Queen, Led Zeppelin, and the Rolling Stones are pretty good company, and you could make arguments for any of them to be number 1. Freddy Mercury and Robert Plant are hands down the best singers of the top four, whereas Dave and Mick Jagger are the most visual...with Freddy having a stake in there as well.

[diamondsgirl]

As Dave would say they are "stellar company" :D

But, I still think Dave is/was the best all around entertainer, as opposed to "best singer".

My call would have been:

1. Roth
2. Mercury
3. Jagger
4. Plant

or something like that...

That's a pretty fair assesment. Yeah, Dave's a better frontman than those guys, but coming in fourth ain't bad. Hell, at least they remembered him in this poll!

those guys dont even come close to dave, and he should be number one no doubt. while they are all decent singers, dave is a much better entertainer than all of them put together. the list should look like this:

1. dave
2. who cares

To me a great front man-person is someone who other's try to emulate.
After Dave & the boys came out just about every band in that era was trying to be Dave & Ed for that matter! Even Al with his drum kit.

Who was really trying t be Robert Plant, Fred or Mick??!!

Is this a serious question?

Dave at #4 sounds about right to me actually, although I personally would have put him above Freddie.

[janarak]

Could never get away with queen.

[jero]

Freddie Mercury of queer loves to be on top

Where's Mark Farner?

You know who ripped off Plant?

Britney Spears.

She parlayed the hip jeans and halters to Super Lowdom!!!

I love Ozzy, but great frontman? NOT!

All he does is clap or hold his arms in the air & swing side to side.

how could they forget this GREAT frontman :D ???

True, but when you go and see him he owns the stage and the crowd. I think being a great frontman is about having presence - Bon Scott didn't do a lot, but he was a great frontman; Debbie Harry didn't do a lot, but she was/is a great frontwoman. You don't have to be theatrical to be a great frontperson. It's all about presence, IMO...

What makes you say that?

What is it that you don't like?

[tajmahal]

Axl Rose
Billy Idol
Don Dokken(Okay this one is a stretch)

[letsrock]

That ridiculous band sitting there. Is it there picks? That week they did the greatest guitarist, drummer, front man. The shit was a train wreck.
VH1 should of been ashamed.
I use to enjoy thier shows.
