I know Keith's voice has worn a bit over the years, but I'm more referring to the 60s-90s. I know Mick is obviously the lead singer, and his voice is amazing. I just think Keith has a softer voice. Just my opinion

I have to agree. keith has damaged his voice over the years, but as far as tonality , keith actually sings as were mich sort of talk/sings. keith is better at singing in tune

Mick is the lead singer for a reason, and as Bill commented in Stone Alone, or was it some interview somewhere, "Keith isn't exactly Pavarotti, is he?"....

However, in just the right type of Keith moment there is a crackly warmth there, a soulful earnestness that Mick rarely ever displays, especially in later years. I was visited with this thought during a recent listening of Steel Wheels. Good as the album is, I was nonetheless noticing how apparent was Mick's attempt to sound current and compete with the younger bands and music of the times... when along comes the last track, Slipping Away, and lo and behold Steel Wheels is at last sounding like a Stones album. Suddenly an album that had been mostly a slick package of trendy posturing became timeless and real and in a completely non-self-conscious way.

Yeah, and Mick Jagger IS Pavarotti. A philanderer who loves musical crossover...

Hi. I had the idea for this thread, I thought it could make an interesting topic. Who do you think has the better singing voice, Mick or Keith? Personally, I think Keith is better than Mick at the slower ballads (Slipping Away, How Can I Stop, etc).

After a Keith-song Micks voice sounds thin in my ears, almost trivial. Luckily the feeling disappears.

SERIOUSLY? You'd actually ask that question? Keith HAS no voice.

Jaggers vocals are so digitaly enhanced live, you would have to be a numbskull to not realize it...
