Top 5 Greatest Frontmen of All-Time

I look at this in two respect... greatest based on reputation and what I've seen in video.

In no order at all-

Mick Jagger
Bono
Chris Martin
Eddie Vedder
Dave Grohl

Artist that I have personally seen live and blew me away-

in no order at all-
Brandin Lea (Flickerstick)
Bono
Brett Scallion (Fuel)
Gavin Hayes (Dredg)
Eddie Vedder
 
Holding someone being depressed and deciding to kill themselves against someone? Really?

Vedder may as well have shot himself after Vitalogy because everything after that was pretty terrible.

There was a reason Kurt was the leader of the Grunge movement, so the person who is "greater" is indeed the one who broke and killed himself.
 
I'm probably just retarded/the chosen one. With the lights out it's less dangerous bit was easy to figure out and the easiest bit of it all was the "I'm worse at what, I do best and for this gift I feel blessed."
 
1. Freddy Mercury
2. John Lennon (if considered one)
3. Ozzy Ozborne
4. Robert Plant
5. Edit: Actually I'm going to have to kick Steven Tyler off of this. I would choose Dave Matthews to be up here somewhere, if he counts.
 
To be the man in front.:usehead: Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I consider the frontman to be whoever talks to crowd, get 'em hyped up, w/e.
Generally, it's the singer.
 
Yeah I guess you could say Bono carries the group. As well as being their spokesman which just adRAB to it. I'm just not a fan of his work so I guess that scews my opinion slightly. Mercury is definately up there, without a doubt would make it in my top-ten.
 
1. Jimmy Page (he was the true frontman of Led Zeppelin)
2. Frank Zappa
3. Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys)
4. Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull)
5. Jim Morrison (The Doors)

Very mainstream, but to be a good frontman you do need a larger than life image, a way with the media and to be iconic. imho anyways.
 
1. Freddy Mercury
2. Dave Mustaine
3. Elvis Presly - Think about it, he basically started what today is called the Music riot with his swaying hips
4. Ozzy Osbourne
5. Alice Cooper
 
Best frontman eh?

Okay. . .

1. Tiny Tim
2. Thom Yorke (It's like the special olympics only better.)
3. Kyo
4. John Lydon
5. Roky Erickson
