Could one of the most obvious possibly be Baz Luhrmann - Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen. The "Wear Sunscreen" speech is narrated by Australian voice actor Lee Perry!
You could argue that he isn't singing of course.
Which reminds me... I don't think legendary Jamaican producer Lee Perry (Scratch) is credited on the Beastie Boys' "Sure Shot". Which is reasonable enough as he only had one line. ;-)
The woman on the meatloaf song i'd do anything for love, Not the one in the video but the woman who actually sang the vocals, And she made no money from it either..
English singer, Lorraine Crosby who was credited as 'Mrs Loud'.
Jodie Connor isn't credited on that lame Roll Deep song she sang the chorus too, which I think is unfortunate considering it's the clear hook of the song.
Justin asked not to be credited on where is the love. Because of the success he had with justified, he didn't want the song's success to be all down to his name being attached to it.
It never actually dawned on me that he's even in that song, but now it's so freaking obvious! :eek: I can't believe that in 11 years, I never realised that he sings the bloody chorus!

Interestingly the woman in the video was assumed to have sang it and got a record deal out of it
Didn't that woman crop up on The Voice or The X Factor recently?
English singer, Lorraine Crosby who was credited as 'Mrs Loud'.
Wasn't she also the same woman who used to sing on the 90s Bodyform TV Ads with the roller skating women: "OH BODYFORM, Bodyform for you"?
There is a long forgotten 1987 version of The Bee Gees song Jive Talkin which became a hit for a group called Boogie Box High. It featured uncredited vocals from George Michael.

She's called Lorraine Crosby. From North East England. Has worked with my cousin who is a guitarist/singer.
Jodie Connor isn't credited on that lame Roll Deep song she sang the chorus too, which I think is unfortunate considering it's the clear hook of the song.
I thought they always credited the singers on their singles? Jodie Connor for Good Times, Tania Foster for Green Light and Alesha Dixon for Take Control (man, those were tunes!).
Wiley - Heatwave, I believe the female singing the chorus isn't credited?
SecondCity - I Wanna Feel - singer isn't credited
Ms. D was the singer on Heatwave, but I think she was credited? She also sang on Chipmunk - Oopsy Daisy under a different name (Dayo). However, I think she might have sang un-credited on Wiley's later drum & bass single Reload.
SecondCity - I Wanna Feel is one of my favourite #1 hits this year.
Dire Straits- Money For Nothing, Sting is on that song but he's not credited. Bonnie Tyler's- Total Eclipse Of The Heart-don't even know the name of the guy who sings on that

Haha so true. Its a bit harsh when you realise why they did what they did, and take into consideration this was Meat Loafs love interest, not Brad Pitt haha

Wasn't the woman in the video Pamela Starks, who later joined Ail Campbell on That Look In Your Eye?
From memory, as I no longer have the single, Campbell was credited on the sleeve but he & Starks were credited on the physical vinyl copy!
The singer isn't credited as the vocal is a sample of a line from a 1996 Toni Braxton song.
George Michael provided the main vocal on 'Jive Talking' by Boogie Box High in 1987 but wasn't credited due to 'contract issues' with Epic who he was signed to at the time although Boogie Box High was Georges cousin, Andros. (No, not Ridgeley).

Yeah she was on the voice last year

There's a male vocalist at the start of the track, but he's never credited.
She's called Lorraine Crosby. From North East England. Has worked with my cousin who is a guitarist/singer.
That would be none other than Nicole Scherzinger.

Also - You're So Vain by Carly Simon has Mick Jagger on the chorus.
Peter Tosh - (You Gotta Walk) Don't Look Back (minor hit in 1978) has Mick Jagger on vocals.
I always thought that was Nicole Scherzinger on the Flo rida track?
