Delores O'riordan
But Tracy Chapman comes a close second.

(Old Mariah and Jewel even third)

perripken · 06-17-2003, 08:46 AM

Bonny Raitt, Ann Wilson, Janis, Chrissie Hynde,Linda Ronstadt, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Norah Jones left off the list?

fuzzix · 06-17-2003, 08:56 AM

I voted Bjork, but I'd put Enya up there with her. Followed by Kate Bush.

Janis Joplin
Ann & Nancy Wilson (Heart)
Joan Jett
Chrissy Hynde
Pat Benatar
Wendy O. Williams
Deborah Harry

i know i am forgetting many... these are just off the top of my head...

Kim Gordan is a stylist not a vocalist. She can't sing a lick. Billie Holliday, Aretha Franklin and Kari (I think) from Hammerbox

oldman2003 · 06-18-2003, 05:35 PM

Janis Joplin
Val Simpson
Maria Maulder
K D Lang
YVONNE ELLIMAN

Hayley Windsor - Antimatter

Thraeryn · 06-20-2003, 10:16 PM

Joan Jett & Debbie Harry. "bjork" is a synonym (and onomatopoeia!) for "puke".

tinytim · 08-25-2003, 11:50 AM

Definately the chick from the disillers, mmm love that whiskey voice.

Maxarian · 08-25-2003, 12:15 PM

OHHH how did I forget to mention Loreena McKennitt!!!

She has so many amazing songs and her voice is incredible. She has a bit of a Celtic flair at times.

If you haven't heard of her, I BEG you to check her out.
Let me know your thoughts.

Her web page is www.quinlanroad.com

Word. Even though the Cranberries recent stuff has been, I think, not as good as their other work, she is definitely my favorite frontwoman (if that is a real term.)

otnorot · 08-25-2003, 02:53 PM

From the list, Sarah McLaughlan

Rowan · 08-25-2003, 04:07 PM

I would have to say Stevie Nicks, Janis Joplin, Patsy Cline, and Bonnie Riatt
