    You might want to do a little research on how the pop industry works.

      Listen, Kiddo, you care about what I Tell you to care about! Now go and sit quietly in the corner, while I finish my martini and think up things for you to do.

        As an extension of the disagreement going on in Sander's SOTW thread ... please name the best female vocalists outside the classical tradition from the last twenty years so that we can laugh hysterically nod wisely and make sage comments about your choices.

        I find Mallika Sundaramurthy has a very good voice. Anneke Van Giersbergen too - especially if she collaborates with The Gathering or Devin Townsend.

              OK, so most male pop singers are gay, so they kinda qualify as female, but that's not the point.

                What is this obsession with "Verleiding Binnen"? If it's the boobies, just bear in mind that 99.99999999999% of women have two each, so they're nothing special.

                  w0000t! :D I usually don't care much for vocals, so I don't really have favorite singers. The entire package must be right and a beautiful voice can be really unfitting in certain music. Putting together this top five was pretty challenging, but fun nonetheless :D In no particular order: Kimbra - Two Way Street - LIVE Studio Session[^] (posted by @BillWoodruff some time ago, became my SOTW after that. That lady has a really very good singing voice). Solefald - Tittentattenteksti[^] (was my SOTW a few weeks back, say what you want, but this lady (Agnete Kjølsrud, also in Djerv and Animal Alpha) sounds like a maniac, which is exactly what makes her, and this song, pretty awesome). The Devil's Blood - The Anti Kosmik Magick[^] (Farida Lemouchi sounds like she's somehow slightly off tune which is exactly why her voice adds perfectly to this dark psychedelic satan worship). Idina Menzel - Let It Go[^] (yes, that song from Frozen which is waaaaaay too catchy! No denying that Idina Menzel has a strong voice with a pretty wide range). Igorrr - Tout Petit Moineau[^] (this song came to me in a SOTW thread (thanks @RUs123!) and also became a SOTW. Laure Le Prunenec goes from beautiful classical singing to screaming and psychopath, awesome!) Maybe not the best singers in the world (beauty is in the eye, or in this case ear, of the beholder/listener anyway), but pretty unique and awesome nonetheless! :D

                          I agree, always happy to listen to her singing. I would never have heard of her if it was not for Jules Holland.

                            She's been my favourite female singer since she joined The Beautiful South. I'm off to see her with Paul Heaton next month - for the eighth time in the last two years!
