I notice I don't have a lot of female singers on my iPod. I want to get more but I don't know what. Any suggestions? If so, what songs?

    I'm not too much for female singers. However, recently I fallen for Amy MacDonald. She a rockin' Scottish singer songwriter. Also, Band of Skulls has a great female vocalist on half of their songs. They really rock!!

    I loved SoC, but its more heavily Jack, and Horehound is a better intro IMO.

    I'd recommend Liz Phair or PJ Harvey.

    Thanks for the suggestions. I like Regina Spektor and would like to get more of her stuff. That song by the Kills was pretty good too.

    Saw her on SNL Saturday night. Didn't care for it but checked her out on iTunes last night when I was bored. She's got an interesting sound and I like her voice. I ended up downloading one of her songs and will probably download a couple more.

    Metric is great but you really want to get Emily haines solo record. she has a great voice and is just as great looking.
