This is another list from Entertainment Weekly listing their list of Rock's All-Time Best Frontmen and Women. This list is in alphabetical order.
BJÖRK
The Sugarcubes
Before wearing that infamous swan gown, filming Dancer in the Dark, and honing her unique solo persona in dozens of supremely imaginative videos, Björk fronted Icelandic rock group the Sugarcubes from 1986-1992. Her uncanny ability to crank out live vocals as pure as studio-recorded ones — wearing random accessories like glasses composed entirely of neon (pictured) — set her apart. And as a side note, it's reassuring to find out that even in the '80s, she was as delightfully weird as ever. —Annie Barrett

JON BON JOVI
Bon Jovi
He's seen a million faces, and he's rocked them all...with his voice, his hair, and his butt. (All, incidentally, still in great condition.) What makes Jon special? (1) His ability to headline your ultimate '80s karaoke playlist and today's top arenas simultaneously. (2) The way he's managed to have a band bear his name and still have us thinking of it as five guys. (3) The hair and the butt. Always worth repeating. —Mandi Bierly

Bono's not even that good. There are vastly superior frontmen out there.

BONO
U2
Though his style has changed radically over the years (from mullet to folkie to Fly), one thing has remained constant about the Irishman born Paul David Hewson: He's always had something meaningful to say in his lyrics, whether they're about politics or personal matters of the heart. In recent years, Bono has become more than just the leader of a band — he's become a leading voice for world change, making people care about issues affecting Africa, raising awareness about AIDS, and calling for solutions to end global poverty. But don't think this Nobel nominee and Time Person of the Year has gone soft or anything — anyone who's seen him in concert lately will tell you he still rocks. — Connie Yu

Not the most gifted musician ever, but certainly a passionate one. He can thank his father for his voice, and he's used it well.

Bono`s always been my favourite frontman - it`s true, he doesn`t have the BEST voice in the world, but his presence onstage more than makes up for that.

IAN CURTIS
Joy Division
Thanks to Control, Anton Corbijn's new biopic about the legendary Joy Division frontman, we get a richly detailed look at the shadowy figure credited with kick-starting the '80s post-punk movement. The Manchester, U.K., born-and-bred Curtis, who suffered from seizures, depression, and an unraveling marriage, committed suicide in 1980 at the age of 23, leaving two short albums and a fanbase that has grown exponentially over time. And really, is there anything more rock & roll than that? —Adrienne Day

Chuck D
PUBLIC ENEMY
With S1W foot soldiers getting funky behind him and Sergeant at Arms Flavor Flav holding it down at his side, Chuck D was as much a general of an army as a frontman, battling for social justice by any means necessary. Donning his trademark ''P'' hat and all-black gear, Chuck ''the Hard Rhymer'' and his crew scared suburban parents in the '80s in a way rock & roll never could. —Mike Bruno
