Chris Cornell was the first name that jumped to my mind, but someone mentioned him already. Amy Lee with Evanescence is a standout for me that's maybe not on a lot of people's radar. Robert Plant is an obvious one
Your favorite singing voices of all time

I've been ruined on evanescence by too many people trying to sing their songs karaoke. One out of ten times someone knocks it out of the park, the rest however..
Tracy Chapman deserves a nomination as a folk singer with a totally unique, reverberant voice:
I don’t know about favorite but Karen Carpenter is probably the best voice I’ve ever heard. Effortless. I think singing for her was like talking for us.
John Fogarty's voice is the signature of the CCR sound, but to me it is uniquely American
Delores O'Riordan, of Cranberries fame, who died way too young, showed off her incredible pipes in this Fleetwood Mac cover, which appears to have been performed impromptu. She had an amazing way of reaching up to the sky with her left hand as a gospel singer might do.
I'd add Ann Wilson of Heart and Robin Zander of Cheap Trick to the list.
I love me some Norah Jones. Soothing. Sexy. Sensual.
Martina McBride singing “Independence Day” just sends a shiver up my spine every time I hear it.
Miljenko Matijevic from the rock band Steelheart singing “I’ll never let you go”. The dude has some pipes!

Nate Ruess from the former group Fun! has a great voice.
Really Freddie Mercury is the answer here.

Whitney Houston had the voice of an angel. I saw her in concert @ Hilton back in the early 90s. My, oh my!
Cole Swindell has a really smooth voice. He is going to be at Target Field on 8/4 after a Twins game. Might have to head up to the Twin Cities for that.
