I am personally a fan of the Hawaiian style of male falsetto singing. Probalby my favorite living performer is Richard Ho'opi'i. He has several CDs (some under the name Ho'opi'i Brothers) and some under his own name. I just checked Youtube and there are several videos, too.

Enjoy!

Tim Buckley. But with a three octave range, it's not just high notes. It'll depend on your musical tastes and what period of his career you're talking about as to whether you'll consider it gorgeous though.

-Just a Japanese vocalist that I'm quite fond of.


I'd post a few Korean countertenors as well (they rock), but I'm sorta short on time. Enjoy

Did you mean Jeff Buckley? I checked out Tim Buckley on Youtube and didnt find any falsetto. I did like what I heard though so thanks for turning me on to him if it was a misteak or not.
but Jeff Buckley has some serious range and Im constantly amazed at his album GRACE.

edit:
OMG thats his son! and they both died at an early age.

Chris Cornell also has high pitched voice at times. Maybe Robert Plant too?

I like Brian Kennedy from Ireland, unfortunately the clips on Youtube are not very good.

The Beach Boys, naturally, "Barbara Ann" being a nice example.

Try Armando Garzón, from Cuba. The sound quality could be better, but you'll get it.

YouTube - 04 Bésame mucho - José Armando Garzon 21.11.08

…or Los Zafiros…
