What i want you all to do is to try to restore what little faith i had in the idea that actual talent exists in female vocalists.
Who are some of your favourite female music artists? am i being sexist?
has female music gone down hill, or all music in general?
there are some questions, go nuts.

All music in general. But you can't post a topic about lousy female vocalists without including MACY GRAY! I mean Aguilera and Spears are eye candy, while Michelle Branch and Avril are both eye candy and talented.

Hate to break it to ya buddy, but if you're going to go on talent, Aguilera has more vocal ability than all four of your other examples put together.

But that still doesn't help the fact that she sucks.

I never understood how marcy Gray became a singer. it sounds like she has a frog stuck in her throat. SHE MAKES VIBRATING SOUNDS AS MUSIC..Argh..the hair too. Jesus, nothing works for this girl.

i think macy gray was discovered by one of those producers desperately looking for a unique sound. and she definately has a unique voice...even if it IS horrible sounding...:P

God, why do girls even want to continue living? Why don't they go to China and bury themselves until they die. It's legal in China, and even appreciated. If only Canadians were as pro-active as the Chinese.

MEGA SUPER SIGH

Nah..The Canadians will just one day create some super sneak attack with all our secret "weapons" we've been stashing away over the decades.

Just like a woman to never keep a secret.

Ohh well, you know the drill boys. We're gonna have to cut Canada off and sink it.

We tried that with Mexico down here in Texas. Though it didn't work out too well because when they hired people to go onto the digging lines, nearly 100% of them were migrant workers...

Needless to say, we Texans learned our lesson, and now we have the utmost respect for our friends to the South. I think we should give Canada the same chance.

¡Ole!

I'm a female vocalist. I don't suck. But I'm also not on the radio.

My favorites:

Sarah McLachlan
Poe
Paula Cole
Patty Griffin

Other, too. But those are some of the first ones that come to mind.

They suck and they know they suck. That's why they've started taking off their clothes (Britney, Christina). So that guys will watch their music videos and come to their concerts, and the girls will want to attract guys like they do. So they will watch the artist more as to copy their sexual dances and lack of clothes and admire their ways. How the cd's sell, I have no idea. Actually they don't and that's why the companies are suing kazaa users, thinking that's why their cd's don't sell.

Hey, quiet you. I kinda like those guys. It's been a while since I heard a singer that can actually sing lyrics as opposed to screaming them. You have to give Amy Lee some credit in that department...

I think that jewel is a decent singer, and hot to book. Otherwise you have the lovely ladies from Garbage and Kidney Theives. w00t.

I'm surprised nobody said anything about....
Janis Joplin or Sinead O Conner. Sinead O Conner's stuff with massive attack is awsome.

Ohhh definately Sinead's stuff on 100th window is great. I also like Tori, Bjork, and the chick who sings in Portishead. Also on some of Massives earlier stuff there was a chick who sang very soulfully like on Safe From Harm.

You could have a listen to my old band's stuff (female vox). I used to have a site for the band, but that came down a long time ago. Tom said it was ok for me to upload the mp3s to the NG server, so you can find them here:

1. Patchwork Sky
2. Song For Someone
3. Air Raid

Air Raid is one of those tracks that always came off well live, but doesn't sound so good as a recording.

I'd recommend listening to Song For Someone first. Keep in mind that Steph had a cold through all the recording time we had, so her voice didn't come out as well as it should have done.

I don't expect it to be to everyone's tastes, but if you're going to be critical, please don't just say, "that sucks" or anything equally as lame. :)

I listened to only one and two because of my slow computer, but I like #2 better, even though it's not really my type of music, but they're both good.

The most "better" female vocalist I can know of is "Joan Osbourne"... Listen to her song "One of Us".
Amazing.

Like many have said before me if you don't like the amount of female vocalists around, freakin pick up a freakin geetar or bass or drums or even a freakin trombone and get the freakin hell out and find one!And yes this is entirely the freakin radios fault.BAD FREAKIN RADIO!!!!!Don't play manufactured freakin drip freakin pop queens! Play The freakin Distillers (Brody Armstrong-great vocalist) or freakin Kittie.Freakin.Alternativly Melt Banana are also a good band with a female vocalist.Tuuli are alriiite.
