    You may dislike her operatic/heavy metal singing style, but she certainly can sing. Anyone who has heard say, "Milkshake n Honey" can back me up...

    becky sneed. i fell in love with her at a garage concert in 1967.

    she also taught me how to kiss, french style that is.. :D:D:D :cool:
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I actually owned the album and saw them open for Aerosmith, and I was utterly horified at the shit I heard.

    Check out Concrete Blond, They're along the same lines but much better

    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 ???

    Love Janis! What a woman!! And Alison Krause is just beautiful.
    And Amy rocks!

    I have to add 2 personal favorites that spring to a mind under pressure! :D

    Ann & Nancy Wilson : those girls seriously have the most amazing voices and are brilliant musicians. Their early stuff was amazing and some of the most important influences of my childhood. Dreamboat Annie is one of my all time favorite albums.

    Melanie Safka: How cool to hear her revived by Hilltop Hoods! :)
    Candles in The Rain is still one of my all time favorites. I've killed two copies of it on vinyl already by overplaying!


    I'm sure there's others but I'll post them later, when I can think past the inane banter coming from ABC Kids! ;)

    Great thread by the way lucy! :)
    NOPE!!!

  • Ani Difranco - Simply the most passionate and talented woman I have ever witnessed. She's been out there putting out excellent music since 89 and even started her own record company, Righteous Babe Records. She has always held true to her beliefs and her fans. Her song writing skills are mind blowing and she can play the hell out of a guitar. She's also an activist and uses her exposure to stand up and speak out about the things she truly cares about. She's always out there touring and she treats the fans at her shows as if they were her own family to which she is honered to be playing for. I just can't say enough about this amazing woman.
    She is great. I agree.

    my favourite : singer from the group Jinx (Croatian band) what a voice!!!

    Aretha Franklin
    Norah Jones
    Anouk
    Fiona Apple
    the chick from German group Guano Apes
    ow and the one from Vaya con Dios...


    Have to admit, though, I like male voices way better...
    The worst enemies of music? Money and Mathematics. Combined with music, they both do the exact opposite of what they're supposed to do. Money makes music cheap, mathematics makes it stupid and predictable.
