Guys singing falsetto...

I want to compile a playlist so please any recommendations gratefully accepted ?

naturally frankie valli, the bee gees, prince, scritti politti and as mentioned in another thread robin thicke...

i cant remember but didnt d'angelo and maxwell also do a couple of 'meaningless tunes in very high voices' :D

Junior Murvin.

Slim Smith.

No comp of male falsettos make sense without that Thom Bell thing - Delfonics, Stylistics, Chi-lites etc.

Simon & Grfunkel (without the Simon)

I'm assuming that this thread is for men singing falsetto in a soul or RnB setting here, but the contrarian in me says Rob Halford.
