Fiona Apple just came on this Spotify playlist I was listening to. Forgot she was quite good.....I haven't heard anything from her since the 90s though.

Larua Jane Grace....wait I'm not sure she counts.

Tell you what though the new Against Me! album is f**king brilliant.

Anyone said Belinda Carlisle yet? I'll put her up, namely for

a)being the most gorgeous woman on planet Earth while in The Go-Go's
b)"Summer Rain", straight up and down great adult pop.

Yep....she was one hot chubby teen in 1981. Cute as hell.

Ella Fitzgerald, haven't heard a better female performance than this. Could teach the caterwauling, screeching merkins of the last 20 years a thing or two.

Interesting gUT.

You really should watch Cadillac Records (if you already haven't). True story about Leonard Chess from Chess Records back in the early 60s, also follows the life of Muddy Waters.

Shows how he discovered Ella Fitzgerald, played by Beyonce, she also produced the movie.

Man this girl can sign if she has some real music to sing rather than the soft pop crap that she records. She does an amazing job with "At Last".

Shirley Manson and Debbie Harry go alright. They know how to maximise the strong points of their voice and are willing to try alternate forms of music/singing. Versatility is something I find to be a strong point for any vocalist.

tbh I don't listen to many female vocalists usually because they are pop crap. There are some who have done a massive injustice to their singing ability and thus I detest them even more.

Garbage is a seriously under-rated band...

florence welch, kate bush, kelly clarkson all have wonderful voices (and I like their music)

don't mind sia or kate miller heidke either.

regina spektor is good live, but her concerts are boring as batshit.
