Well...
Having gone through the entire thread, I gave up actually commenting on the bizarre remarks.
It's a difficult question that's been posed. I don't really like hard rock music. And even the "hard rock" bands I do enjoy (like ACDC) are hard to judge, because I get muddled up between liking the song and the voice that's singing it.
For example: I much prefer ACDC's music to Iron Maiden's. But, I can't honestly say that Bonn Scott's (or the new singer's) voice is better than Dickenson's.
And so I can only conclude that my favourite hard rock singer's voice sure as hell ain't Michael Bolton's.

You mean Bruce Dickenson the opera trained singer who can hit perfect notes and stretch his voice like a Pavarotti...or Bonn Scott who screams like someone who's drowning in a bucket of whiskey?
Mhmmmm...let's see....
Bonn has a gritty edge that Bruce just doesn't have it in him to create. If he sang a song like "girl got rythem", or "Shot down in flames" you'd be like. . . . riiigght, next.
Two totally different voices, great at what they do, or did in bonns caae.
