  • Hold up…. where’s Andrew Garfield!?!?!?!? That man can definitely sing and he worked his butt off for the main role in Tick Tick Boom
  • @Phelie315
    I would add to this list: Taron Egerton, Luke Evans, Chris Pine, and the Master of them all: Ewan McGregor. No movie moment will ever make me fall in love as fast as I did when he started that first line of "Your Song" in Moulin Rouge.
  • Amanda Seyfried as Sophie Sheridan in "Mamma Mia!" She blew me away, because she not only nailed the ABBA songs but she managed to get the aspect of the Sophie character down pat.
  • @zentierra7803
    Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger were absolutely incredible in "Chicago". Their chemistry, voice prowess, and dancing skills were out of this world! And, while I'm at it, Queen Latifah's "When You're Good To Mama" song in that film was *epic*.
  • @aalflyguy1184
    No honorable mention for Taron Egerton? The way he immerses himself into Elton John is perfection
  • The Rock in Moana - I know "You're Welcome" isn't exactly a pure vocal masterpiece, but I was quite shocked at how well Dwayne Johnson could carry a tune in that movie.
  • @user-uj6dt1ie5m
    Let's not forget Nicole Kidman and Ewan MacGregor in Moulin Rouge. Both absolutely amazing!!
  • @deb5386
    Ewan McGregor in Moulin Rouge was amazing!
  • @1401minstrel
    Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix had the doubly hard tasks of not only singing but capturing the style and essence of a famous singer. And they both did it beautifully.
  • @magick333
    Luke Evans is one of the most amazing singers. and Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor stunned in moulin rouge . Hugh Jackman also sang in the greatest showman.
  • No Zooey Deschanel? Her singing voice in Elf when she sang “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” is very beautiful to listen to. Heck, it’s so beautiful it even made Will Ferrell sing along.
  • Here's one, Hugh Laurie. Comedian, dramatic actor and jazz musician (or is it blues) that even has a few albums. Honorable mention to Jake and Elwood Blues.
  • When we watched Frozen my aunt said was that really Kristen Bell singing and I said yeah then she said wow she's good. Also Seth Macfarlane has released seven jazz albums and has been nominated for five Grammys.
  • Daniel Radcliffe!!!! When he wrapped Harry Potter and immediately started on broadway I was stunned
  • @tamaracamp3418
    What about Sissy Spacek in Coal Miner's Daughter? You are aware she did all her vocals AND won the Oscar for Best Actress that year! I remember being shocked that she sang at all! How did she not make this list?
  • @Michael-cf9cj
    The biggest surprise I ever had listening to an actor sing was when Jim Nabors sang The Impossible Dream as Gomer Pyle. It was absolutely incredible and mystifying that it came out of Gomer Pyle. It doesn't hurt that the Man of La Mancha is my favorite musical and the song is just awesome. And I realize that Jim Nabors was a classically trained singer, at the very least, but still, it was an amazing performance.
  • Chicago just wouldn't be the same without Catherine Zeta Jones. She's the main reason "Cell Block Tango" is as good as it is.
  • @trinaq
    Emma Stone should really sing in more projects, she's got a fantastic voice, and even won her Oscar for starring in a musical.
  • @aweberf2225
    Sissy Spacek in Coal Miners Daughter is my top pick. She was sensational.
