Kind of like Billie Holiday and a busted trumpet, or something, with a hell of a blues soul.

a hillbilly would not use the term "vocals", he would probably say sangin' or something. gimmick fail

[lowlife]

Awww shit you got me I am actually the black sheep form one of the most prominent families in all of Canada:eek::D but then my family cast me out and I became a crackhead and now live in a trailer with a few other outcasts.:cool:

[Dante'sInferno]

Bjork and Enya are my favorites.

[neverending]

Bonnie Raitt
Bonnie Bramlett

[Elvis_Christ]

I'm quite suprised on the Enya calls! Each to their own of course. Shit's like Yanni to me :D

[X¤MurderDoll¤X]

I'm quite suprised on the Enya calls! Each to their own of course. Shit's like Yanni to me :D

I feel the same about her.

[lowlife]

Amy Lee from Evanessence.......beautiful voice.;)

[FreddyMyers]

I dont know her name but the lead singer of In This Monment is incredible.

[fortunato]

I can't say I listen to her recreationally, but Diamanda Galás can make me feel genuinely scared with her voice, which I'd say is pretty impressive.

[Deimos]

Avril Lavigne my bitch does deserves some lovings for her vocals:cool:
Katie Perry:)

I hate avril.....

I would say Lita Ford, Joan Jett, the chick from Jefferson Airplane or the chick from Heart. Other than that I don't overly like female vocalists.

[Deimos]

Amy Lee from Evanessence.......beautiful voice.;)

I hate and I mean hate that group. I refuse to use the word band there.:mad:

[fortunato]

the chick from Jefferson Airplane.

Grace Slick! She had an awesome voice.

[The Krell]

No love for Debbie Harry? I'll be the first..and possibly only.

Lots of great ones, especially on NE's list, but Regina Spektor didn't get a mention from anybody yet and I dig her... Lacey Mosley too. Of course, I may just have missed the mentions...

Ann Wilson for me.
And Nancy- both incredible, especially the earlier stuff.
Janice is a goddess
Patty Smith

[Posher778]

I feel like both Wilson's are underrated, and Heart in general. Great guitar, vocals, and drums, especially in the hits (naturally).

Magic Man and Crazy on You being my favorites

Had all the albums, including imports- they were however a casualty ofmy divorce; involving a sledgehammer.

I love Crazy on You. My two favorite songs though are 'These Dreams' and 'Will You be There (in the morning)
