Her and Bobby Brown are cooling it in the local slammer, they got fucked up last night and got into a little row, she couldn't make the show.

Lennox has more range than Carpenter but Carpenter is one of those classic "untouchables" of her time. A locked in classic! Lennox seems more underground and much less mainstreamed as Carpenter and a poll will show that. Amazing that my mother still has some of The Carpenters and Carole Kings vinyl albums in mint condition.

What sells me on Lennox is that piercing highness she delivers on such tunes as "No More I Love Yous" and "Love Song For A Vampire" I swear I feel I am hearing an angels voice. Very under-rated and under-appreciated singer. Stevie Nicks may have the sexier voice to me, but Annie has the most EROTIC voice I ever heard. Deliciously evil like she wears a strapon and ready to go with it 24/7 and 365. Annie Lennox is the only female voice that gives me goosebumps every time I hear her sweet voice.

If we are talking about great vocalists, sorry but Madonna? Please. She can barely sing.

Oh please, i never said madonna could sing if you read my post. What i said was all round she knows her music and music is not all about the voice, its a package.

Annie Lennox kicks ASSSSSSSSSSS
also liking Alison Moyet, but then not nticing many UK singers ....the cultural divide, I guess, altho both ladies from the 80s and later, my personal favourites

Why no classic blues/jazz types? Billie Hoday could humble the lot of them in less than twelve bars. Dito for Nina Simone.

Lol. You really think people who are nominating the likes of Madonna are going to even know who Billie Holiday or Nina Simone are?

Rachelle Ferrel, Eryka Badu, Gillian Welch, Chris O'Connell, Cleo Laine, Betty Carter, et al, even less likely to be known by anyone who thinks of Babs Streisand as a singer.

Shame about Janis, though... I would have liked to have heard a lot more from her.

after looking at your 3 lists, you've failed to give nods to Aretha Franklin, Pasty Cline, Debbie Harry, or Stevie Nicks

I couldn't bring myself to use the words 'greatest female vocalist' and most of these names in the same sentence.

Great entertainers, pleasing voices, good looking bodies and faces, trick voices, popular celebrities for sure, and a lot of them, I thoroughly enjoy their body of work....but virtuoso command of their instruments? Naaahh.

Okay, I screwed up the end-time for the poll, but that's okay

Karen Carpenter won this group.
