      I'm missing my fav on your list: Eddie Murphy. He was even told not to try singing when he brought out 'Party All The Time' as it would ruin his acting career.
      Also I am saddened that Christopher Lee isn't on here and Jeff Bridges only gets a mention.

    I think the point of the list is actors who are SURPRISINGLY good singers. We know Hugh Jackman, for example, is a great actor and singer. The people on this list aren’t as obvious because maybe they sing in animated movies or shows. Many on this list have also released singles or albums that may not be widely recognized by general fans, unless it’s an actor you consistently follow.
