Thank you for these contributions! I'm not sure if that Andre 3000 footage counts though, because the drummer counts them in and not the singer himself.

Ah, nice catch... perhaps just OutKast as a whole-team credit would work then!

I would like to add such numerary luminaries such as Bill Haley, Gerard Way, and Billy Joe Armstrong to the list, please and thank you.

Wonderful, thank you. I am also adding to the list Matt Bellamy and Joey Ramone.

You may be interested to learn of the "Announcer's Test" AKA the "Tibetan Memory Trick" which is a fun little tounge-twister/ reciting exercise that has confirmed that all of the following singers have the ability to count:
Jerry Lewis
Mark Volman & Howard Kaylan
and The boys of “the Blue Chips”

This could be a goldmine tool in uncovering other singers who can count. I know for a fact that Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention at one point performed the bit during a live show of Billy the Mountain, but I can't find the right version anywhere. I may upload it myself if things get desperate.

That's good, it would be pretty awkward to be tallying if you couldn't count.
