I had a Pink song come up on my iTunes when I was mowing the lawn today and admired the level of emotion she puts into her vocals. The wife and kids absolutely love her.

” says it’s “record Congressional productivity to date.”

I was surprised no one mentioned her.

Very memorable job singing the National Anthem at the 86 Super Bowl. One of the best renditions ever.

I don't care for her choice of music and her diva stylings, but the girl definitely has a set of pipes.

If she sang other music, she could really get recognition.

Many excellent nominees here — I’ll add Eva Cassidy — not well known, passed away way too young, but her voice is goose-bump inducing
