    There are a million reasons why he was the "King" and each of them was the same - he could sing anything and make it shimmer.

      Really? Was Mr Cole really underrated back in the day? I thought he would've been among the top singers back then.

    Very classy singer with an unmistakable soft huskiness to his voice. I've read that Cole cultivated that huskiness by chain smoking cigarrettes before singing. If so, that's too bad, as he died of cancer way too early.

      Copied him.
      No voice better in the romantic repertoire. But Sinatra (a balladeer after Crosby) and Bennett (a hipper take alongside Tormé and Sammy Davis Jr.) enjoyed quite different vocalizing and styles.
