Katy Perry is known for head-turning stage wear and music videos, but she has some pipes as well. You can hear her pretty impressive vocal delivery on a vocal-only track of “Firework” here:

The Killers’ Brandon Flowers vocal interplay with the hypnotic keyboard lines of “Mr. Brightside” make for interesting listening:

Coldplay’s Chris Martin is not only a gifted pop/rock songwriter. He is also blessed with an arresting falsetto and warm vocal tone, which he uses to great effect in bringing out the feeling of every track he sings. “Fix You” is one recent hit vocal example:

Arguably the most significant female vocal talent to arrive this decade, Adele’s vocal tone, control and delivery are simply fantastic. Check her out here:
