a collection of "different" unique talents.... each with their own thing going on....  all great , for different reasons.

note,  this is irrespective of what i may or may not think of the material....  this is about singers that have performed at a level few can dream of, and have made every performance very much their own.... 

very few of them would pass for a decent quality classical singer....  but i don;t think that was what we're talking about.
 the ability to send a shiver down your spine with just their voice THAT is what i'm talking about

Amy Lee ( evanescence )
Whitney Houston
Tina Turner
Kate Bush (not a joke)
Beyonce
Madonna
Janis Joplin
Emmylou Harris
Mariah Carey
Debbie Harry
Annie Lennox
Aretha Franklin
Stevie Nicks
Adele
Cerys Matthews


there are reasons for leaving such luminaries as Bonnie Raitt out...     she's a guitarist that sings in my view....  and her playing is such that it stands on it's own....  her singing is merely very good....  not genre defining,  but her playing is masterful....

Good call! Dont know how I forgot her but Etta James should be up there too surely and Joss Stone may be another one. And what about Ella Fitzgerald or Bessie Smith?Guess when you think of it there are more than just a few to consider ;D
