Ah, I would have watched it but I was sitting on the dock of the bay watching the tide roll away

One of my all time favorites, and for my money, one of the greatest singers who ever lived.  His voice was amazing on its own, but the raw emotion he was able to put into it while singing just staggers me sometimes.  Besides that, he could hit and hold a single note, which nobody in the world seems to be able to do any more.

He was obviously first one to autotune, duh!
