I like him as a singer and a drummer. I like his voice in "Good Night" and I like the drumming on "Rain, "Strawberry Fields" and some other songs.

he is one of a kind.he and leon redbone did my little grass shack.i think he is better in duets,because his voice is not deep and doesn't really carry well.
he is not a throaty type guy.but for mellow rock he is tops....kinda like harry nilsson...ya dig?

Ringo's voice is unique but he is not a good singer.  Very few songs would fit his style, but they would sound great.

As a drummer he has few peers.  One of the all-time greats.

Drumming was his pure talent but he wasn't a bad singer either.

Certainly drummer. He's a great narrator! (Thomas The Tank Engine. lol)
Singing?........I forgot about Goodnight....like that...like his sincerity...not so much the voice.

I recently seen the old Simpsons with Ringo in...what a legend...
Just thinking, he must be a pro at recording voice-over animation

Drumming. Poor Ringo just doesn't have a good voice.

I did like him on Shing Time Station, though. I was watching the re-runs last year for him LOL. So pathetic, I'm glad I stopped that.

Yeah, at least Ringo never had his voiced fixed with computers like a certain blonde pop star that I could mention (her name rhymes with Millary Fluff)

I like both but what can I tell you I am a Ringo fan!  His voice wasn't that great in his early Beatles songs but hen he got to "Yellow Submarine" and "With A Little Help From My Friends" Ringo's voice just hits the spot and I can't picture anyone else singing those songs.  That is why I don't like the Joe Crocker version of "With A Little Help From My Friends" because it is slowed down way to much and the songs is also basically Ringo's trademark now.  For drumming I love him on everything he did because he just sets the mood of the song and provides a solid, metronome like drumbeat.  Lately I've been listening to like "Old Brown Shoe" and "The End" and I just love the drumming he is amazing what can I say and I am sick of him being so underated he is just as talented as the other 3.  As John once said, "Ringo was a Star in his own right before we even had a drummer."  I paraphrased there but the sentiment is the same John, Paul, and George have all said that Ringo is the greatest drummer.  Interesting note when watching "Give My Regards To Broadstreet" reccently I noticed that  on "Ballroom Dancing" Ringo played drums as he did with all of the songs in that movie.  Anyway I heard the version from "Tug of War" and I kind of thought my, Ringo did a good job of copying the drumming from that album.  Little to my suprise I found out that Ringo played the drums on "Tug Of War" to so he was just copying his own drumming anyways.

I like both but just when he does it at the same time. Because normally in his All-Starr tours and stuff, he gets off the drums to sing, and off the mic to drum, and that I don't like


In the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.

Has anyone else heard that Ringo has publicly stated that he feels unloved by the British public?...I was well sad to hear that...Also he MUST know that's not true...He's an absolute HERO!!! Funny and so nice in interviews always. Hemust be having another insecure moment....Oh well..Thought if he read this thread he should know it's not true!!!!

His screaming alchohol shows a man not happy with himself ( I think)
I saw him on Tv recently doing the rounds plugging his postcards book. I thought "is that RINGO!" I found it a bit unsettling-don't know why.
