Of course top 10 best is open for discussion (comes down to opinion) and a song to best showcase how good they are.

But here is my list of top 10 best vocalists (sort of in order):
Robert plant- Led Zeppelin Song: Whole lotta love
Steve perry-Journey Song: Open Arms
Freddie Mercury - Queen Song: Show must go on/Bohemian Rhapsody
Chris Cornell - Soundgarden/Audioslave Song: Outshined
Maynard James Keenan - Tool/APC Song: Forty six & 2
Steven Tyler- Aerosmith Song: Dream On
Axel Rose- Guns n roses (80s 90s era) Song: Welcome to the jungle
Bono - U2 Song: Where The Streets Have No Name
Scott Weiland -Stone temple pilots Song: Big empty
Bjork - I dunno at this moment lol
 
Why not? Because it doesn't appeal to you personally?

It actually takes talent to do what they do, and the people who don't do it properly just end up ruining their throats. I used to perform this vocal style, and I've thrown up after playing gigs before, it's that taxing.
 
my list would be...

Freddie Mercury
Dax Riggs
Bruce Dickinson
Ian Anderson
Maynard James Keenan
Magnus Pelander
Ian Astbury
Albert Witchfinder
Robert Plant
Ozzy Osbourne
 
but the fact that you don't have to be on pitch and you don't have to express emotion with your voice makes it easier.

plus metal sucks in general
