1. I ranked the rock and metal singers I like.
2. I added three sample songs to each singer. These are either the songs I like most, or the songs of which I think the singing is most impressive, or in some cases just any song.
3. Only rock and metal singers, so no shouters, growlers and cookie monsters and no other singers who do not sing in a rock band.
4. I evaluated released songs, so studio albums and official live albums, but no personal experiences or private recordings.
