Madonna has an instantly recognisable voice. Very distinctive. And in a recording studio she has a breathtakingly beautiful voice. Listen to Oh Father, Promise to Try, Cherish, Open Your Heart, The Look of Love, Like a Prayer, Live to Tell, I'll remember and on and on and on...In performance, well it depends on how energetically she has been dancing about. Have you tried to sing and dance at the same time? Somehow I doubt it.
best pop voice of all time?! do YOU have ears? Those who can distinguish between notes that are good or are sharp of flat can tell you that Madonna is a pretty shotty singer. Amazing artist, barely okay singer.
@MatthewMonster26 She's got an amazing vibrato. And a great Alto voice. She as the old rocker chicks voice, that's what great about it. Perfection is boring, soul is everything.
she is not great because she has the best vocals or has been the best dancer, she is great because she brings it all together into a perfectly high coutured package. Britney had Madonna's moves and stage presence, but she didn't have her vocals or structure, Gaga has a voice but lacks everything else.
When you are performing in concert and excerting energy in performing dance routines, your vocals can become shaky due to the excertion of exercise. It isn't wise to rush to judgement & critize someone over something you may not fully understand ...
