    :D Thanks for saving me a few minutes of typing because they were going right on the list.


    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!!
    Taaa daaa!

    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.

    Pat Benetar will always be the measuring stick for lady Rock singers. She has an amazing voice.

    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!!
