There is something captivating about Kate Bush's delivery, she collaborated a lot with Peter Gabriel too who was a fantastic singer with unique delivery as well.
Adam Lambert.
Holy fuck his range and control. Itβs insane.
Even if his music is mediocre, his vocals are amazing.
Nobody will read this, but Kristin Hersh. She was the founder / less singer in Throwing Muses, but her solo work truly amazes me. Literally nobody is like Kristin.

Linda Perry.
Lead singer of 4 Non Blondes and has a solo career. I donβt even listen to that style of music, but I still get excited when I hear her voice come on.

tldw; a contestant on a European pop idol type show had such perfect pitch and tone, the judges thought she was lip syncing. She wasn't and it's amazing.

Jim Grey of Caligulas Horse and Arcane
And Devin Townsend
I'm consistently impressed by the one vocalist from Beast in Black. When I watch their videos and then realize there is one voice in the song and it's that dude, it blows my mind every time.
Ronnie James Dio.
Henning May
Amber Bain of The Japanese House has a really nice voice.
There's also Caroline Polachek, who I am pretty sure actually has perfect pitch. She is one of the most technically impressive vocalists of her generation IMO.

Vitas.
Nico and Kevin from Electric Callboy
Einar Solberg, lead singer of Leprous, has a unique voice. It can sound almost fragile at lower registers, very expressive.... And has incredible range.
