Fave female singer/songwriter?

[kloraferm]

Just mildly curious. 2 names that come to mind at the moment are Tori Amos and Carly Simon (yes, there are plenty others) I guess I was just a tad bored :rolleyes:

[NoSurviivors]

Ani DiFranco. I'm not gay, but her guitar work & songwriting is really neat.

There are a few others.. really depends on my mood.

Definitely Ani, she's one of my favorite artists period.
She's a great guitarist, great writer, she's great live, I love her political views, etc.
(I have a framed 5 froot by 3 foot poster of her, I'm not gay....)

I also like Patti Smith and Susan Tedeschi.

[Owenay]

I agree with Ani DiFranco and Tori Amos but I personally just can't listen to them.

I always loved the voice of Delores O'Riordan from the Cranberries but I think most people find her voice annoying.

In metal Candace Kucsulain of Walls of Jericho and Angela Gossow of Arch Enemy and very good vocalists who can easily rival a lot of the men. Also Otep Shamaya from the band Otep has a pretty cool voice for the genre, but her lyrics range from beautifully disturbing to occasionally juvenile.

I think that she's hot. But that's beside the point. Her music is really great.

Some other singer songwriters that I enjoy:
Tori Amos
Nellie McKay
Kate Bush
Sheryl Crow
Liz Phair


In addition to loving the music, I also feel that these women are very hot. I would toe fuck them in a minute.

[sobi]

Alicia Keys
Natalie Merchant
Christina Aguilera (might be wrong, but I think her and Mariah Carey are the only 8 octave vocalists around in pop/rock music at the moment)
Tori Amos

[moegolden]

I'm not a snob that knows everything she's done, but Lucinda Williams seems particularly good. And she has a very real edge that you rarely see on females in public life. (a drunk, former? smackhead)....she once puked near my shoes.

Sheryl Crow


I can't STAND Sheryl Crow.

I totally forgot about Joni Mitchell, she's my #2.
Another unique guitar player, and good songwriter.

[NoSurviivors]

Sheryl Crow has a nice ass.

that's about it.

I have a strange attraction to Sarah McLaughlin too.. both in looks & sometimes music. Love her voice.

[kloraferm]

Lucinda's great, I almost forgot about her. I'm also going to suggest Poe. Her album 'Haunted' deserves alot more credit than it gets.

Ah. Good eye!

[BravoSierra]

Aimee Mann is pretty good.

[d0uche_n0zzle]

Dido, amazing voice. The bald chick (aka Sinead O'connor) a wee bit wacky, but also, another great voice.

And of course that wack job, Amy Winehouse. Dusty Springfield, another great talent.

And not to forget, Fiona Apple, who I would have like to slam my cock in her poohah repeatedly, back in the day.

[Sidekick Dave]

Aimee Mann is pretty good.
She's hot. Great songs. Beautiful eyes.

What about that old Edith Piaf?
(movie reference, I'm sure a few of you don't even have to try to guess)

[RobeSoup&Tears]

Although I DO NOT like Jagged Little Pill...a lot of Alanis Morrisette's work after that (especially some deep tracks) are really really good.
(Singer, Sognwritter and Multi-Instraments)

Natalie Merchant is another but her politics suck.
(Singer, Sognwritter)

Sarah McLaughlin can be sappy sweet but also has a few deep tracks that are good.

I still love Imogen Heap.

Tori Amos has always been right there as number two. I'll also give honorable mention to Tracey Thorn, I love so much of her work, especially her collaborations with Massive Attack.

[FAngel]

What the fuck, two pages and Joan Jett has only been mentioned once?

http://www.jencray.com/images/music/joan%20jett/joanjett_13.jpg

All this time, she still looks good and still plays great.

Also, Shirley Manson.

PJ Harvey. She has a has dark, indie sound She has worked with Josh Homme from QOTSA.

I still would fuck the shit out of her, however old she is. Always was wild for her.

Depending on whom you ask, she may or may not be interested in cock. But I like to think yes.

not exactly a looker and I'm not sure if mentioned, but I'll say Patti Smith (not the country singer with almost the same name who sings nice songs, but the one who wrote "Rock n Roll N*****")
