DBSK Fans have all claimed that Jaejoong and Junsu are the best singers in DBSK (I agree) but who do you think has better vocals?
____________________________________________________________
Mehhh...Why with these threads all the time, I think there were two that were made before.
If you want to say who's the better singer, TECHNICALLY. Junsu wins. Why?
Well, he's definitely the best live singer. Try to find live performances where he actually sings really bad and I'll lick the floor.
JaeJoong is an amazing singer, too, but yeah, not the best live singer (plenty of songs to back this statement up with). His voice is usually a little bit shaky when he sings live, especially in lower parts. However, he is a brilliant singer when it comes to singing in the higher register. He has powerful voice, so whenever he's given lower parts, it doesn't compliment his voice to its full advantage. I love Jae, but he's just not on par with Junsu when it comes to technical singing.
Also, I know a lot of people fangirl and say "OMG, Jae has the most versatile voice ever!!!" But nah...Not really. He should only stick to ballads and rock songs, songs that can showcase his vocals.
JaeJoong+rap=dork
Songs like Footsteps and Crying really show off his vocals.
Junsu on the other hand, can sing all types.
Rap: ummm..Can't think of one, but All Rise comes pretty close.
R&B: My Page
Ballads: Resignation, Saranghamnida
Mainstream pop: Timeless
When it comes to appeal and preference, of course most people will say JaeJoong. His voice is what some have labeled, a "vocal orgasm." It's soothing, it's sexy, it's GENERIC. Sounds harsh, but it's true. That's why his voice is so appealing to everyone, because it's a generic voice that is easily loved by everyone and it's easier for the ears.
Junsu's voice takes some time to start loving because it's so unique, but that's also one it's strengths. Unique voices are more in demand, Bi, Hye Seung, just to name a few. They may not be categorized by YOU as unique voices, but they are indeed.
A unique and actually GOOD voice is hard to come across, a beautiful, but generic voice is easy to find.
Overall, I guess I'm not going to say concretely who is the best singer overall. Simply because personal preferences and biasedness plays a HUGE role in one's decision. (Come on, some people actually think Bi is a really good singer!)
JaeJoong has songs that are meant for him, and Junsu has songs that are meant for him.
Until I hear JaeJoong singing Timeless and Junsu singing Footsteps, I won't say who's better because the songs that were given to them, were given to them based on their voices. Put them in different shoes, see how they adapt, and then judging them would be an easier task.
End of essay.

OK now it's my thoughts...i think e post is rite in some ways but wrong in some...
can't blame jaejoong for not being as technically well-versed as junsu, cos junsu DID have 6 years of training in SM... and before that he already had training when he was younger...
NOT forgetting that jaejoong used to be tone-deaf... so being able to sing like THIS now, is already a miracle for someone who is tone deaf...
so taking ALL THESE into consideration...
i would say that they are on par in terms singing...
not in terms of skills... cos junsu is obviously more skilled technically than jaejoong...
junsu's voice is also stronger, compared to jaejoong's... changmin's is even stronger...
by stronger i mean explosive...
like a powerhouse...
like celine dion...
or whitney houston...
or mariah carey...
kind of strong...
junsu's voice is like theirs...
he can belt out high notes so easily...
ok now for e genres...
i think both of them haven't done rap, and are not suitable for rap songs...
rap parts are usually Yoochun or Yunho... e rest can't really do it...
junsu's voice is good for upbeat dance tunes n ballads...
but these all go under mainstream pop still...
All Rise doesn't count as Rap, cos e rap parts are done by Eunhyuk... not by Junsu...
Junsu sang e R&B pop parts...
My Page is a R&B dance tune...
e ballads r R&B ballads too...
essentially they r e same genre, juz different tempos...
but for jaejoong...
he's sung rock, trot, R&B dance n ballads, n of cos pop...
i would think rock n trot already r very different n unique genres that r very different from mainstream pop or r&b...
n he is able to customize his voice for e different genres...
think happy birthday in 6 ways...
n they do sound different...
junsu might not be able to do it...
though he hasn't tried...
of cos not forgetting jaejoong's gr8 at imitating others' trademark voices...
so i think jaejoong's voice is more flexible...
or rather... he is MORE daring or willing to play around with his voice in front of national TV...
