Kenny Rogers is not even close!

Janis Joplin
Robert Plant
Freddie Mercury
Roy Orbison
Paul Rodgers
Van Morrison
Karen Carpenter
Annie Lennox


...and plenty of others that are also far better.

Lost all respect for him when he pushed that cameraman down but a pretty solid left handed starter. I really don't know how well he sings though.

The first concert I ever went to was Kenny Rodgers and the First Edition in Morehead my freshman year of college. Kenny has some great songs, but he's not the greatest. Plus he's hard to take serious since his face lift, I have to change channels when the commercial he's in comes on.

Kenny was good but probably not in my top 100....but definitely ahead of the Gibb brothers.

+1. Add the following:

Luciano Pavarotti
Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
Plácido Domingo
Fritz Wunderlich
Roger Whittaker

Do any of the people on either list provide the finest rotisserie chicken to billions worldwide? Advantage: Kenny.

Are Italians white? If so, Sinatra. If we're going by old school rules of who gets to be white then I guess, oh, Bing Crosby.

John made some seriously good music. I have an autographed picture. He had some real talent. Too bad he was a space cadet.

And you've heard what? About three Elvis songs? Take a trip on youtube and come back and post with some sense.
