Favorite Chick Band/Female singers?

[The Ringer]

Since I am just a fan of classsical music and scores I'm going to have to say Enya and Annie Lennox. Both women have such beautiful voices.

 

[Cryoguns]

and deservedly so... Unless you like overrated faux punk princesses who are the epitome of pretension...

I coud live with that. She's definitely nice to look at though.

 

[RJMacReady16]

Shivaree.

Really the only band I can describe as sounding "noir".

Amazing stuff.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Another vote for Aimee Mann and Kate Bush, but also Annie Haslam from Renaissance:

Not just the best female singer, but one of the greatest musicians of all time: Ms. Janis Joplin.

For me, to name a few:

Anastacia (what a suprise, I know )
Janet Jackson
Mary J Blige
Aaliyah (R.I.P)
Missy Elliot
P!nk
Alicia Keys
Annie Lennox
Whitney Houston
Toni Braxton
Brandy
Monica
Patsy Cline
Beverly knight
Lauren Hill
Shola Ama
Avril lavigne
TLC
Foxy Brown
Aretha franklin
Amy Lee (Evanescence)
The Corrs(who hears the 1 guy anyway )

.....these are just the top of my head.
I could add loads more but I've quite an eclectic collection, anything from R'n'B, Swing, Atlantic Soul, Hip-Hop, some light rock, even some country and Classical.
