Wouldn't have picked you as a lead singer

There are some lead singers whom I have thought, "Woah, you have a very unconventional voice. Wouldn't have picked you as a lead singer." Mostly because they are somewhat whiny.

• Billy Corgan (lead sing of Smashing Pumpkins)
• Brett Anderson (solo artist and lead singer of Suede)
• Jarvis Cocker (solo artist and lead singer of Pulp)
• Brian Molko (lead singer of Placebo)

I don't think Jarvis Cocker is whiny, but the rest have some degree of whininess. Each give a very distinctive lead voice to his band and I do appreciate each of them.
