My favorite female artist of all time. I would say Fergie. She is THE best. But Natasha Bedingfield writes deep and meaningful music so she is also good
I agree with Sunshine Karen Carpenter sounded like an angel. I could listen to her all day and not get tired of her voice. Natalie Merchant would be number two for me as well. I'm with Petunia on that one. With or without 10,000 Maniacs.
