This song is so beautiful by her and i would suggest Dargaard..the female singer in that group is great.

In terms of "modern" singers, I really dig the sound of Kristen Hersh's voice (of Throwing Muses, and the surprisingly hardcore 50 Foot Wave), but my favorite all time female singer is Ella Fitzgerald. I also like Sarah Vaughn, Nina Simone, and of course, Kim Deal.

I live next to the house where L7 used to practice...One of the band members sold the house to a neighbor...

I listened to Sinead's first album today. Had forgotten how great it is...

But I have to say that one of the most beautiful songs in the world, to me, is done by Enya.

Sleater Kinney - I remember the first time I heard "Call The Doctor", I couldn't believe what I was hearing, it seriously made an impact on me. When I had a band, they were one of my main influences.

Joan Jett - I couldn't name another female out there ever that so successfully fused Rock music with Punk Rock attitude. I saw her in concert once, back around '98, she was awesome.

Liz Phair - She can be flat out X-rated one second and completely bubblegum pop the next. She made Madonna's most contraversial material seem like nursery rhymes in comparison!

A couple of my favorite bands of all time feature female members, Kim Deal from the Pixies and Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth. To me, those 2 bands are both very important to the history of music & are very often underrated or just forgotten.

I don't think anybody here has mentioned the brit band "Lush". I really liked alot of what they did with their melodic style and beautiful simple lyrics. Check out the song "For Love" if you haven't already.
