There is no other female artist in the history of music who has been able to top the power and the wonderful voice of Whitney Houston. With endless awards and tons of fans all over the world she is truly a know as a International Head Diva.

Whitney Houston has the greatest voice of all time. Her ablity to play with her notes is like no other. There is not now nor will there ever be another like Whitney.

Vote for Mariah Carey 7) Mariah Carey

I think by far and wide Mariah carey is the greatest female singer of all time and her Seventeen number one hit singles blows away anything Beyonce has ever done.She will in my oponion , beat the Beatles with over twenty number one hit singles.MARIAH CAREY IS MY HERO... :o)

Maybe she is a little pitchy and maybe she is a little all over the place but something still wants me to say Mariah. She has heart and she has soul.

TheAxlErmin

MARIAH CAREY has a very cool voice.

Vote for Ann Wilson 8) Ann Wilson

Ann is hands down the best female rock singer of all time... her voice is absolutely amazing!

dafcortez7

I would love to hear Ann Wilson do a duet with former frontman of journey Steve Perry. Two best singers ever along with Robert Plant of Zeppelin!

cutlets29

Well, I think Amy Lee should be on the list... but Ann Wilson is not too far behind in my book.

Vote for Shania Twain 9) Shania Twain

There is no question about Shania’s range and control over her voice, which is exquisite. She is without a doubt one of the very best female vocalists of all time. Country or no country, this diva knows how to rock you! not to mention her soulful songs that makes you want to listen to them over and over again.

Shania Twain is a very wonderful singer her voice is touching and very very very sweet,all her songs rock,and i love every single one of them,she is my idol,role model,and motivater,when every i listen to her songs i get this i can do do this feeling(singing shania twain rock on girl your the best rock on

Shania’s voice is unique and I love that she does not over sing. Plus, she writes all of her own songs. Which, I think takes more talent then merely just singing.

TheAxlErmin


Vote for Celine Dion 10) Celine Dion

All the high notes and pitches are under her hands! She has a superb voice that can make you stand up and amazed. Her voice brings emotions to lyrics in her songs..

hayreanmarjon

celine deserves the number 1 spot. come on, she has recorded songs with some of the worlds greatest singers and sings very well in five different languages. she sings like an angel and has such charm about her. stop talking about beyonces look here because we are talking about voices and by far celine is number one, mariah is number two, whitney is number three and of them all, celine has been the most consistent with her records and has passed mariah to become the worlds best selling female vocalist of all time.

without a doubt, the greatest female singer of all time is Celine Dion. the way her voice can project, belt and push emotion out as well as be soft is incredible for her style of music. her high notes can be overwhelmingly powerful, and there are very fedw singers like Celine

Vote for Karen Carpenter 16) Karen Carpenter

My favorite vocalist, by far, is Karen Carpenter. Her voice has an inherent melancholy quality which makes it perfect for the Carpenters’ many melancholy and sad songs. She has such a vulnerability in her voice that it makes me want to give her a comforting hug.

Nowhere will you find a voice as smooth and silky as hers. Some people say Barbra Streisand’s voice is "like butter. " I believe that distinction belongs to Karen.

But Karen’s voice possesses so many qualities and facets that I love. It is mellow and comforting, loving, gentle, and sweet. And sometimes when she hits those super-low notes, it sends a chill up my spine to this day.

And at other times when she is singing tenderly, her voice crackles, and again, you hear that vulnerability.

Some other adjectives I can use to describe her voice are warm, sincere, touching, caring, and soothing. It wraps around you like a fluffy blanket on a cold day. The emotion in her voice is inherent. She doesn’t need to yell to make you understand what she is feeling. All she has to do is sing sweetly and gently and you know.

I will forever treasure that voice and mourn the loss of Richard Carpenter’s little sister.

jonk0469

Absolutely the purist Alto to ever hit this planet. Sadly we’ll have to wait to hear her again until we depart this planet as well. I’d still be buying her records today!

doofos

allamericangirl

Carrie is an amazing talent, and writes a lot of her own songs! She definitely deserves to be at the top of this list!

rainbow1

Vote for Shirley Bassey 19) Shirley Bassey

Simply the best!

explorer

Dame Shirley’s voice is one of the wonders of the world. Last year at age 70 she recorded two songs with more vocal power than anyone on this list. Check out Get the Party Started and The Living Tree on YouTube.

TaylorBurton

The majority of this list cannot even be placed against Shirley Bassey, her voice is one in a million and to listen to her gives you shivers in your spine. She is one of the few who can sing with power, but not shout.

bigtanga05

Tarja Turunen is divine female vocalist from my favorite land - Finland. And not only the best singer, but great and amazing personality for me and I think that she´s the best... , not only for me. Tarja, kiitos:-)for everything!

tarjaxxx

Tarja has the best voice what I have ever heard. She is the best.

boocarolina1234567890

Tarja should be in #1, and no only because I’m her fan, is for her voice, is ridiculous the comparation with her. If you don`t know her, you should do, and listen a few of her songs, is one of the best experiences ever. Her music takes you to something special.

one of a kind singer today.. simply the best..

berna414

Truly an amazing singer with a world class talent. She deserves an international recognition.

elizabethgeronimo

Vote for Barbra Streisand 30) Barbra Streisand

I’m guessing that everyone on this list is pretty young and hasn’t much heard how Barbra Streisand sings because if they did, she would most likely be number 1. I’m the type of guy who listens to rock/metal and I still believe she is the best female singer. Amazing voice.

metalmaiden

How can anyone who actually hears that voice, vote any other way? Ignore the politics, the control issues, and the questionable acting choices, she is the greatest female pop voice of the last 60 years. At nearly 66, she can still leave audiences breathless with her emotional power but when she was younger, no living person could even approach her clarity and vocal control.

Barbara has been my favorite Singer & Actress since the 70’s when I was growing up. In the 70’s I was a teenager, & all my friends used to tell me that I look like Barbara Streisand. That made me feel so Special. There was a look alike contest when I was a teenager, but I was not able to make it because my brother & sister were in the hospital at that time. Barbara Has An Awesome Voice & I will always enjoy Her Songs! She is the best 100!

Vote for Hayley Westenra 31) Hayley Westenra

Hayley has one the most beautiful pristine voices all all time. She should definitely be amongst the top ten.

Why hayley is not on this list defeats me. Stunning range, immaculate control and no little power, plus perfect pitch. A pure clear spiritual voice a bit like a boy soprano, but with feminine warmth as well. And still only 20 years old! Amazing

Once you hear her angelic perfect-pitch voice, you understand why people like George Martin (& his son) got involved with her career. She has to be heard to be believed.

Vote for Gwen Stefani 32) Gwen Stefani

OMG she is my favorite girl singer!

Greenmas88

OMG Gwen is the best singer in the world she should be at number 1. She is my idol and she should definitly be yours to.all of gwens songs are cool even her bands no doubt. As i said gwen is the best so YOU should VOTE 4 HER

STEFANI IS IN FACT A GOOD SINGER

Vote for Miley Cyrus 35) Miley Cyrus

Vote for K. S. Chithra 36) K. S. Chithra

K. S. Chithra is the bible of music, period. she created expressions, she changed her voice to the songs, she made videos to blow the mind. wow, she’s the greatest and No one has or will ever do anything close to what she has done in her career. without her, there would be nothing. just count how many artists try to immitate her, she’s the best singer

bradman

Chithra is one of those rare individuals that capture your heart and senses before you even realize it. Her range is incredible and her personality cancels everyone else out!

Chithra is the best female singer of all times because of her voice and all the wonderful things she does on stage. Her shows are superb! A fabulous lady with an equally fabulous voice.

Chithra, is the most down to earth artist. She has one of the most breathtaking voices, but more importantly, she makes the songs she sing truly come alive... Chithra, puts passion into the songs she brings to us.

bradman

Chithra is the best female singer that I have ever heard. She manages to put all the technical things into singing yet draw so much emotion out of a song. Many female artists are great in the sense that they have a huge vocal range and are able to sing everything in tune, but a truly great singer is someone who is able to make the audience feel what the song is about, at the same time

clinten

Vote for Leona Lewis 37) Leona Lewis

She manages to make her songs so emotional with her great voice.

This generation’s Whitney Houston

One of the best female singers that I have ever heard. She manages to put all the technical things into singing yet draw so much emotion out of a song. Many female artists are great in the sense that they have a huge vocal range and are able to sing everything in tune, but a truly great singer is someone who is able to make the audience feel what the song is about, at the same time.

Vote for Janis Joplin 41) Janis Joplin

I am flabbergasted by her absence in this list, where she should definitely be number 1.

number one without a doubt. People just know realize how great she was.

barrythemuslim

Janis Joplin should be number 1 in this list. I look at the people above her--c’mon, Miley Cyrus, you’ve got to be kidding--and I think, this list must be run by 12 year olds. I’m sure it has to be an age thing that is preventing Janis from being at the top.

Go to Youtube and put in Janis Joplin Ball & Chain. Then be prepared to have her reach into your chest and grab ahold of your heart with both hands. She won’t let go till the song ends, and even then you can feel the after-effects.

Bianca has been recognised as one of the most talented vocalists in the world, by Quincy Jones, Simon Cowell, David Foster, Diane Warren, Walter Afanasieff and many others.
The last two have written songs for her. Her stunning ability is
recognized the world over.

r5lark

Bianca has the power, range, control, versatility and most importantly the heart and soul that makes her a truly brilliant vocalist. Only 11 when she won America’s got Talent,she is even more impressive today at 14. She is very kind, generous and humble as well. She certainly deserves to be in the top 10 best female singers.

r5lark

I VOTED FOR BIANCA AGAIN CUZ SHE ROCKS THE HOUSE AND IS AN AMAZING SINGER AND PERFORMER! YOU GO BIANCA RYAN!!!

Vote for Aretha Franklin 44) Aretha Franklin

She swept all the grammys for almost all awards she was nominated for. Her collaboration with Lauryn Hill in "A Rose Is Still A Rose" is my favourite

hayreanmarjon

you people vote stupidly. Sarah Brightman, give me a break. She is a nobody ok. Aretha Franklin is easily the best female singer ever.

SgtPeppersz196715

Rated below rubbish, fake, 2-year lasting pop whores like Avril lavigne, madonna and BRITNEY? Miley Cyrus above Aretha? You indeed are brainwashed fangirls with an IQ reaching zero. People, she is just a jumpy happy schoolgirl with an average voice-which, plus, is average thanks to those magicians ediding her voice for the listeners not to become suicidal... Just get someone fix your ears! NOW!

Vote for Dusty Springfield 46) Dusty Springfield

I am amazed that she is not in even the top 20. Of course I realize that many young people vote on their fav at that moment, and it is more a popularity contest than an actual evaluation of who actually was a great singer.

Totally agree, Timeless music.... supreme voice!

She could sing it all! The greatest pop singer of all time

She is not only a superb technical singer but her voice has incredible depth and body very few if any female vocalist have!

She has the clearest highest quality voice I have ever heard in my 50 years. She has the perfect combination of a powerful voice yet it is a very beautiful sounding voice. She is just not a superb technical singer. Her voice comes from hear heart. The songs she sings. "one less bell to answer", "love lines angels and rhymes", "if I could reach you" and others no other female vocalist could sing could even come close to singing those songs as well as her! Her voice is magical! Mariln
Mccoo is the best in my book!

Vote for Bjork 64) Bjork

All of those Female Artists up over #63 only has the looks.

Bjork on the other hand can make one of the greatest albums of all time!
Look at Homogenic, Post, and Debut, they were the greatest electronic albums ever created. And why she’s in #63. Maybe because all of you people are judging artist of their looks not their talent of making music.

So don’t underestimate the genius mind of Bjork, you judgmental idiots.

you are underestimating her you swines! vote

Bjork has one of the most unique voices of all time and the great thing is that she can write her own songs as well...

Wow I can’t beleive this list who’s voting KIDS? This list is a joke I’m not saying that the other women can’t sing, but come on. Olivia has one on the best voices ever you know her voice because it’s sounds like and angel.

domecity

I Agree whole heartedly !!! Olivia does sing like an Angel !!!
She has always been underated..However, for Millions of Fans worldwide She will always be number #1.

Many voices on this list are impressive, even wonderful. But Olivia’s is surely the most ethereally beautiful voice you’ll ever hear. It illuminates Faulkner’s faith in prevailing, not enduring; it calls forth goosebumps; it’s a gift, pure and simple.

Kate Bush is awesome!
She deserves to be the Nº One!

I am happy there are some Kate Bush fans here. I just listened to Sarah Brightman a little since I don’t know her well and all I could think of was ’I prefer Kate Bush’. Sorry, I may be wrong but Kate deserves some love.

Vote for Connie Francis 74) Connie Francis

She has a golden voice, unfortunatly most young people don’t even know her. Perhaps you don’t like the kind of music she made, but you have to admit she certainly can sing

Connie Francis,has always been respected in Brazil for her great talent, mainlyher ability to sing in forein languages inclding Portuguese.
Besides, no other singer has that much love and respect for her fans as Connie does. We in return, love her to death and are very loyal and supportive.
I do hope that she comes back to Rio soon. We miss her a lot.

JulioFromRio

Connie Francis is still one of the
best-selling female artists of all time, and one of the most versatile. She is the world’s first
"Queens of Pop", and second to none!!!!

Vote for Eva Cassidy 75) Eva Cassidy

Yep. I’ve listened to her for about 10 years now. I never get over the absolute purity and genuine communication. Mariah and Whitney do not share this ability.

I just found Eva a week ago, and I can’t get over her voice. Oh Danny Boy, Fields of Gold, and many more show her powerful and sweet voice even when she is singing softly.

When I saw the title to this list, Eva Cassidy and Karen Carpenter came to mind immediately. I also think k.d. lang has an amazing voice.

Vote for Maria Callas 81) Maria Callas

I simply can’t believe how ignorant the people voting on this poll are to have both Maria Callas and Edith Piaf not in the top 5... makes me despair!

Maria has without doubt the greatest female voice of all time. there’s not a singer before or since that compares.

Amazing voice, a gifted singer.

Vote for Sade 82) Sade

The best erotic voice

jproberto

she is so hot

Vote for Tammy Wynette 83) Tammy Wynette

Tammy was the "First Lady of Country Music" because she was the first woman singer to sell a million copies of an album. She actually sold more than five million copies of Stand By Your Man! She was also known as the heroin of heartbreak because of her troubled life and that little tear drop in her voice.

Tammy is so unique among female country singers... what a sweet voice! when I listen to her singing "stand by your man" it always brings back memories of more innocent times.

can never forget the legends.

Vote for Alanis Morrisette 86) Alanis Morrisette

The best female rocker ever..Jagged Little Pill n Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie..

hayreanmarjon

It’s interesting to note the wide diversity of female singers we are comparing here. Some like britney are just froth and bubble, some are vocal gymnasts such as Whitney and Celine, some are out and out pop like Madonna. The fact is if you are really after the whole dynamic range that includes sensitivity, ballads and power rock, then there is only one beautiful star: Alanis. If you doubt here ’octave range’ try to hear ’’one’ live. It will make your hair stand on end.

There is no one to touch Alanis as a singer, she is awesome

Vote for Mary J. Blige 87) Mary J. Blige

Mary J Blige is the greatest R&B female singer since Whitney Houston .She should be in the top 10 for her amazins work she is phonomanal.

Mary J. is one of my favorites. Mainly becuase not only can she sing, with power and conviction, but she seeps emotion. When she sang "No more Drama" at the Grammy awards a few years back, even Celine Dion was standing up, clapping, shaking her head like, "this woman is amazin!" that is great. I love Mary J Blige style, and strength as a woman, and what she sings about in her lyrics. I will be buying her next album too.

i cut for her because she sings about real things and trys to make feel what she been through. Also it don’t always be about her she try to make it to where it can relate to most of the people in this world

Vote for Patsy Cline 88) Patsy Cline

The greatest female singer of all time - can sing any type of song from ballads to rock n roll. Her voice the most unique ever heard.

The best Country and Western singer that I’ve ever heard.

Most unfortunate that perhaps one of the greatest female vocalists of the 20th century gets so very little attention because the record companies can’t make any money off of her because she is dead.
Willie Nelson wrote the tune"Crazy"
that when he recorded it went bust.
She did it and it was a major crossover hit.
Many of the women mentioned in this list would give liberty and limb to have such talent.

Nina seems to be one of the greatest vocal not only in the Philipiines but in Asia... She can easily do the whistle note and hits the high chest notes.. She’s so wonderful and beautiful inside and out... So open the gates The SOUL SIREN IS COMING...

Nina is the one and only Soul Siren of the Philippines as well as of Asia. When you say versatile its Nina. Very talented diva. She can sing any genres add to it she can also dance as gracefully as you can imagine.

One of the best vocalist in the world..she can do coloratura passages easily and she has great vocals hitting a high note.... She’s truly a soulful singer... a true FILIPINO talent!
