Kiri Te Kanawa

Pat Benatar

Both classically trained voices, no shock.

Love me some Kelly Clarkson. Not a fan of the top 40 genre but there’s something about her voice that I could listen to over and over again. And I don’t even mind when my kids tease me about it.

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?

The White Cliffs of Dover (no I am not that old to have heard it when it was released; my grandparents were!).

Vera Lynn is still alive, I believe. In her 90s.

I don’t believe that anyone has mentioned Diana Ross, Debbie Harry, Petula Clark, or Crystal Gayle. For great harmony, I’d nominate the Cleotha, Mavis, and Yvonne Staples from the Staple Singers.

I know, Whisky Lullaby is a moving song and Alison does a great performance.

I figured someone on this thread would mention Janis Joplin. But for the life of me, I cannot understand her appeal. To me, she was just a rough voice screaming into a microphone.

Tough call, but someone had to give Emmy Lou props.

When the Mamas & the Papas played at Ole Miss a friend’s father was the physician on call for university events. She was ill w/ a cold or virus & he treated her. He told his daughter that she was very nice.

Let’s not kid ourselves, whether we like it or not, MAONNA is probably the greatest female singer of the last few decades’ Such originality and productive genus.

Maud was USMC vet - and WW II vet - Johnathan Winters. They don’t make ‘em like that anymore.
