Your Favorite Vocalists

Caterina Valente.

(I don't see anything wrong with the looks of Mama Cass.)

Anyone mention Karen Carpenter? Some of her material was not to my taste, but her voice was one of a kind.

- Steve Perry (Journey)
- Andrea Corr (The Corrs)

Burton Bell (Fear Factory)
Karl Buechner (Earth Crisis)

Am I going blind?

No mention of Elvis.

I went back and checked out some of his work and realized a lot of stuff out there that I intensely dislike is lesser artists trying to duplicate what he did naturally. Forced it fails badly. Actually having the talent it works.

Annie Lennox. I've loved her music literally for as long as I can remember! One of my earliest memories is of belting out "Little Bird."

Damien Rice
Nina Simone
Ella Fitzgerald
Sia! I've loved her since being mesmerized by "Breathe Me" as a kid.
Colin Meloy - I've been obsessed with The Decembrists since 2005!! I adore him.

Stevie Nicks!
Daughter
Jose Gonzalez

There's a singer named Daughter? I like Feist, Sara Bareilles & Ella Fitzgerald. I only know about Damien Rice cause of a dance video you posted. I should check out more of his songs. The one you danced to was super pretty.

My favs are Adele, Taylor Swift & Lorde.

Looks like I answered this but having a think of any more I would say, in terms of just pure voice

karen Carpenter
Bette midler
Anne murray
Eva cassidy
Whitney houston
Bing crosby
Frankie valli

Harmonies...
Mama and papas
Abba

Judy garland...when young. Her voice changed as she got older, it didnt sound the same :-( i think some vocalists damaged their voices as they got older and more fame like whitney houston.

But Karen carpenter is still tops with me.

Skye Edwards
Erykah Badu

Barry White
John Lennon
John Legend
And that's just some of them!
