    Kate Bush and Debbie Harry, both pleasing to the ear and on the eye a few years back

    Which album? – The latest one… full of drills etc. Don’t think it works on a home stereo or in the car, but being blasted out to a crowd of people it sounded really good. Heard her sound checking during the day and even that was pretty good.

    Neko Case is doing it for me at the moment (musically speaking). I love female singers, at the risk of being sexist, I think the best singers are female. M T-B, PJ Harvey, Kate Bush, Laura Nero…hell, I even like Girls Aloud in a non ironic way.

    Justine Frischman formerly of Elastica does it for me (if only).

    Ah, forgotten Maria McKee. Yes, she was very good, sometimes let down by material though when she went solo.

    Lots of good suggestions (Aretha, Erykah Badhu and Jill Scott work for me, also like Macy Gray and Tasmin Archer) but cannot believe no-one has mentioned Grace Jones, her voice is the bizniss!
