    Ian Brown would be the best front man ever if he could sing in tune.

    Mentioned only twice in 8 pages, so clearly not a popular opinion, but for me its Liam Gallagher. i know a lot of people think he's a bit of a dick. But, the man has immense stage presence. And he does it all hardly moving a muscle. Great voice for Rock n Roll. I love seeing him live.

    I love Oasis as much as the next guy but I wouldn't put Liam Gallagher in the category of *great* frontmen. He's defintely got a swagger and stage presence but compared to the likes of Freddie Mercury, Jim Morrison, Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop etc he doesn't move one bit. Standing behind the mic with his hands behind his back is obviously part of his image but a great frontman it does not make. The likes of Freddie and Jagger had crowds wrapped around their little finger, Gallagher just isn't in that kind of league.
