Which singers have voices that can't be copied?
My list goes like this:

1)Serj Tankian - System of a Down
2)Steven Tyler - Aerosmith
3)Robert Plant - Led Zeppelin
4)Fred Turner - Bachman-Turner-Overdrive (and currently Bachman and Turner)
5)Bruce Dickinson - Iron Maiden
6)Klaus Meine - Scorpions
7)Ronnie Dio - Heaven & Hell, Black Sabbath, Dio
8)Brian Johnson - AC/DC
9)Axel Rose (maybe) - Guns N' Roses

and 10)David Draiman - Disturbed

To me, there's some people whose voices can't be duplicated. They're in a class all their own. Anyone got any others to add to the list?

+1 Ronnie James Dio-----RIP

The most powerful voice the music world may ever see....he is greatly missed. I have been "youtubing" him lately. I got to see him in 07 finally with Heaven and Hell....Great Show

I noticed you did not include Rob Halford?

I thought Ripper only hinted at him, and that is close as you are gonna get

I don't know about not being copied,but some that are instantly recognizable to me are;
Gregg Allman
B.B.King
Michael McDonald
Waylon Jennings
Merle Haggard
Johnny Cash
Roy Orbison
Marty Robbins
I know that's a lot different than the ones you listed,but when you hear them you know...
