Glide was an amazing vocal performance,
Piece Of Pie,
Bi-Polar Bear,
Down (very powerful and strong)  
Adhesive
Where The River Goes
Loving The Alien
Gravedancer
Time Of the Season (COver)

He's an amazing vocalist but if I had to pick a top one it would be Glide

On a side note on eof my favorite lyrical moments of his was Barbarella...what a heartfelt song

Wow, you totally nailed what my list would probably be haha. I would add the acoustic version of "Plush" that's on Thank You and also "Only Dying".

Taking in account different styles used, here is my list:

From STP:
Sourgirl (live No.4 era)
Glide
Interstate Love Song
Adhesive
Plush (easily overlooked, but a technically one of his strongest recordings)

Solo:
Some Things Must Go This Way
Killing Me Sweetly
Lady, Your Roof Brings Me Down

From VR:
Gravedancer
American Man
SBQM (really dont care for the song, but its a solid vocal performance)
Fall to Pieces

I think American Man might be one of Scott's top 5 best vocal performances ever, I just didn't mention it earlier cuz I was just thinking of STP songs. It's such a great song though...clearly my favorite VR song. I also agree that the studio version of Plush is also very good vocally, but seems to be overlooked since we've all heard it 10 million times.

I have always loved his crisp vocals on Big Empty.  The entire Purple record is great vocally.  Adhesive and Wicked Garden are also great.
I know I want what\'s on my mind.

I like his forceful vocals on Heaven and Hot Rods and the coolness on I Got You. No.4 was his most diverse vocal album.

Yeah definitely. He used kind of a mix of everything he had done before and then threw in some new vocal styles.

Scott's harmonies and range really shined in STP's MTV performance.  Especially on
"Creep".  On but one song that I seem to always be impressed with is "Coma".
He just sings his ass off on that one.

I know this started off as STP only however I was pretty impressed with Scott belting out the chorus to "Blind Confusion" at the Foxbourough show last week.  On the VR side, Sucker Train Blues always was a good one to watch him blare.

I really like his softness on hello It's Late.....and Somba Nova.  Beautiful Day is great with the range and all......He's a jack of all trades......from the Openings of Core to Arch Angel.  He's got the goods

well, I think Down, Coma and No Way Out show the most vocal range, and they're probably the hardest songs to sing. His range is incredible on all those songs.

I think the whole Purple album his voice sounded the best of his life, but I also thought he sounded very strong on Slither. If you go back to Slither and compare that voice to what you hear on Happy in Galoshes, there's a major difference to me.

I thought his vocals on Tiny Music were weak. Part of that was the style, but I also think it was much inferior to his vocals on Purple. #4 and SLDD were better vocal efforts, but the lyrics for me weren't as good. I actually thought both VR records were very strong from a vocal standpoint.

But if you pinned me down and asked me what my favorite track is as far as Scott's voice sounding best, I'd probably pick Silvergun Superman.

I've always loved the acoustic version of Plush from HeadBangers Ball and Atlanta is a great performance.

Atlanta most defintely a great vocal performance. Also Hello, It's Late, Glide, along with And So I Know.

I've personally also liked his vocals in Kitchware and Candybars. His vocals, mixed with the bad ass guitar playing of the Deleos really drew me to the song.
Dedicated. Disgusting. Disturbing.

I'm just sittin' on this merry-go-round, and the music is too loud..

Exactly why No.4 is my favorite STP album...  ;D
