I can't say I have a favorite. I generally change the channel anytime a female singer comes on. There seems to be a big push in country music right now to get women singers equal air time on the radio. Most of them are atrocious.

If I had to pick, I'd have to say Suzy Bogguss or Sara Evans.

Sade or Sarah McLachlan as far as voice.
Chrissie Hynde has always had a cool style for being kind of dorky.

Probably Joan Baez. The guitar work on "Diamonds and Rust" is some of the best you will ever hear.

Can't pick just one.

Natalie Merchant, Emmylou Harris, Allison Krauss, and Billie Holliday are my favorites.

That Australian fricking kills it. Her performance at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club is a thing of beauty.
