    I'll stand with you on this one. Sure, it's sugary sweet pop music, but she's got some pipes.

    She has really evolved from her Genie in a Bottle days.

    Christina is better looking and has a better voice, yet Britney gets all the media attentions for her lack of hair and parenting skills.

    Since there were some comments recently slamming female singers, I thought I might stand up for teh sisters.


    Heather Nova, heartmelting
    Alison Krause, look in the dictionary under elegant and entrancing
    Ellen Foley, caused a lot of adolescent jeans to catch fire in teh day
    Amy Lee, love her or hate hger, she can sing
    JAnis Joplin, whiskey, cigarettes and howling good fun

    who wants to name some more ???
    I really hate most female singers (sorry girls)...especially those IDOL-singers...bwehh!

    Although I really like Janis Joplin and maybe a 'few' others...

    Aretha Franklin!! I love that voice!
    Patti Griffin, too. Not so much a trained voice, but a very passionate and expressive voice and a great songwriter.


    And, one of our own!!

    Good call on Aretha. I can't believe I forgot about her. Add Martha Reeves of Martha and the Vandellas, too. Joan Osbourne (not sure about the spelling) is great, too. I'm not a huge fan of that what if God was one of us song, but I've loved other stuff I've heard by her. If you've ever seen the documentary Standing In the Shadows of Motown, she sings the hell out of What Becomes of the Broken Hearted in it.

    Neko Case Writes beutifiul songs and has a wonderful voice i think.

    My favourite female vocalists by a landslide.. in terms of newer current performing singers. She's in the same league as Stevie Nicks (my favourite female singer EVER).. and even does a fantastic cover of "Dreams".

    I seen her set at sasquatch festival last year.. and she braved the insane weather that happened 3 songs into her set (HUGE hailstorm.. at the gorge?!).. haha the songs she did play though sent tingles up and down my spine.

    Highly recommend catching her live!!
