Male vocal spotlight

Guys can sing too....

 

ah-oooooooooh, werewolves of london! Ah-ooooooooooooooh....

Seriously, my contribution...

 

"Saw a werewolf drinkin a piña colada at Trader Vic's... his hair was perfect"

Amazing.

 

Jeff Buckley's rendition of Lilac Wine is just beautiful, but my favourite off Grace (besides Hallelujah [or Dream Brother! Lord, that's a cathartic song] because I'm basic that way) is this one:



Also, Puddles needs more recognition. I genuinely love the guy's voice:
