    My buddy and I were talking about bands with multiple lead singers this weekend and trying to think of as many as we could. Multiple lead singers in the band AT THE SAME TIME not at different times. So Van Halen wouldn't qualifiy. Also, they have to be LEAD singers, not just sing harmony. And rap doesn't count.

    Here are the ones I can think of:

    The Eagles
    ZZ Top (Dusty sang some songs)
    Journey (who sang Just The Same Way You Love Me? It wasn't Perry)
    Styx
    The Beatles
    Fleetwood Mac
    ELO ?
    Alice In Chains
    Earth Wind and Fire

    Who are some more?

    already mentioned, but Sonic Youth is a great example. I think having 3 singers really helped them be more diverse. As a listener I have a slightly different expectation of the type of song, not just the singing when I know who the singer is. They've even featured singers from outside the band a few times.

    Spiderbait
    Smashing Pumpkins (Iha has done some)
    Nirvana? (Grohl on B-sides?)

    Not sure about this, but has Frusciante done anything for RHCP? I thought I remembered a RHCP song sung by him, but that could be me mixing it up with his solo career.
