Of some reason Roger's voice sounds like suffocated nowadays.. its very hard for him to sing even songs like "Foreign sand or happiness?".. too much smoking.. has made his throat dire..

Yeah, I figured. None taken, which I hope goes both ways. I was just pointing out that technicality isn't everything, something which many of us would do well to remember from time to time.

Of course technicality isn`t everything. My fave band is The Beatles and I think any three-year consumated guitar played can play better than Ringo, Paul, George and John combined.

I prefer Yellow Submarine over My Fairy King BUT I can`t say that the first one is a better song. That`s my point. As for "favourite" singer, that can`t be (and will never be able to be) a matter of technical aspects.

But as for "best", in some cases - like this one - it`s easily "figurable". It`s different if you ask who is better guitar player between Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. We can all say who we like more, but it can`t be proved who is "better". But between either one of them and Rory Gallager, or Tom Delonge... it can be totally proved.
John hated Hot Space. Frederick's favourite singer was not Paul Rodgers. Roger didn't compose 'Innuendo.' 'Bohemian Rhapsody' hasn't got 180 vocal overdubs.

To me it depends on what type of song it is. Roger is better at the rock oriented ones and on some ballads depending on what hsi vocal range is for that particular song. Brian is better at the poppy songs and ballads. So I guess it is both.

Roger is the best singer . duh!
Freddie: "Yes, we'll have a great big cock fly over the crowd!" Roadies: "Yeah! Great Idea!" Freddie: "And it will fly into a great big mouth with a moustache!"

I think it depends on what kind of song it is. Different types of voices are perfect for different types of songs..

Exactly, and what pitch the singer is best with!
