Dolores O'Riordan, the lead vocalist of the cranberries has a great voice. especially on the mtv unplugged version of zombie.
also, Dido has to figure in the list, and possibly Gwen Stefani

yes I forgot about Dolores O'Riordan great voice that is :D

Forgot my favorite...her voice haunts me! Margo Timmins, Cowboy Junkies.

Check out the Trinity Sessions...single mike recording session. Lou Reed (no less) said Margo did the best version of "Sweet Jane" he has ever heard. Check'em out.

@Summerlinda thanks for more to search.

Totally agree. She has a fantastic voice. Really powerful.

06-16-2003, 12:22 PM
heh i dunno why :D :D but no one mentioned these people who have bad ass voices (despite their public personality)

Christina aguilera (2nd album, first one was garbage)
Mariah Carey

also...

lauren hill

pink

mya

aalyiah

alisha keys

the last chick to get in destinys child

kelly clarkson ( dood you gotta admit... shes got a strong set of pipes (although I only like her because she sings alot like christina aguilera)

I determine these picks by the ability to watch their musi videos with no picture, for pretty much all the the ladies on my list when I see their videos to their songs I have a sudden urge to turn the picture off and just leave the sound on ... videos dont do justice tho their voice

where as on the other hand you have other "vocalist" who's videos you feel like muting and just watching the picture = Britney Spears, jessica simpson,the lead singer in destiny's child ... ect...

Can't believe nobody has mentioned Neko Case yet.

She has a few solo albums (with some songs too Country-ish for my taste), but is also part of The New Pornographers.
