6. His voice was so good you almost feel bad singing along to it. |
|
Just listen to his voice on "I'll Come Running Back to You". It's so smooth that it's hard to even try to synch with the words.

Al Green's performance of A Change is Gonna Come at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is transcendent.

12. I think the smoothest voice was Mel Torme |
|
Effortless mastery of his instrument.

13. I love "A Change Is Gonna Come". Sam Cooke is good-- |
|
but I like Aaron Neville's version better. IMO Neville sings like an angel.
