Favourite female vocals

[phammo]

I can't go past Aretha Franklin

 

[Mr X]

Count me in for Sarah McLachlan

my addition to the list is Michelle Branch

 

[Contra Mundum]

Agree with Devo Debbie Harry - has there ever been a better voice for power pop? On something like "Union City Blue" or "Hanging on the Telephone" her voice is fantastic

 

[Suspense]

Debbie Harry is one of my favourites as well. As Devo mentioned, many different styles and they all sound great. Even Rapture.
Also:
Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star)
Stevie Nicks (Fleetwood Mac)

Tina Turner when she got going was exhilarating.
Kate Bush one of the most captivating.
No one sung quite like Chrissy Amphlett in Divinyls earlier, more quirkier before sexier timesh.

although I wouldn't call Shirley Manson an incredibly talented vocalist, her voice suits her band's sound better than any other female in the past 10 years or so

that said, I simply cannot go past Kim Wilde

Snap. Such a tragedyto see her go when everyone around her paled against her.
