“If more people were aware of this lady, then Dame Shirley Bassey (Wales, United Kingdom) would be right at the top of the list. Back in 1976 Shirley received Britain’s prestigious ’Best Female Vocalist Of The Last 50 Years of Recorded Sound’; this award is not given out very often! And, after 55 years in Show Business her voice is more powerful than ever! Bassey is a mezzo pitch (Mid-Range) artist. Her vocal range in ’Belting Voice’ (No Falsetto) is spectacular, along with her tremendous vocal projection. In the USA Bassey is know for her three James Bond Theme songs, Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, and Moonraker, but you can’t sale between 100-150 Million records with just three songs. Over the years, Bassey has recorded over 600 songs, both studio and LIVE!”

24) Barbra Streisand
“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!”
“’The Legend Of The Century", Miss Barbra Streisand has broken ALL Major Awards, even before the age of 30. 71 Albums, and the Greatest Selling Artist of ALL time, second only to Elvis, and has surpassed the Beatles. The "VOICE" from "GOD".”

“Martina is my all-time favorite singer. You actually know she means every word she sings.”
“Martina is one of the world’s top vocalists, whether it be power ballads like "Where Would You Be" and "A Broken Wing" or the soft yet very powerful "Concrete Angel". Martina is the BEST singer out there and should be up in the Top 3!”

32) Marilyn McCoo
“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!”
33) Janis Joplin
“I am flabbergasted by her absence in this list, where she should definitely be number 1.”
“You got to be kidding me! 0. 2 of the vote?!?!? come on people, get real, listen to some real music! Janis Joplin’s voice is incomparably better than anyone’s since or before her. All these "great" singers you have before her on this list are bland, boring, and all sound the same. lets get some love for Janis in here!”
“Whitney Houston is but a little speck of dust on Janis’ voice, which excels brilliance. I am appalled at her shamefully low place on the list.”
34) Ella Fitzgerald
“Thumbs down, no ones better.”
“I agree with those below... Britney "changed the music scene" forever... what a joke! Only if changing it means embarrassing all the truly talented people out there by being an idiot and endangering her children. Ella is and always will be a classic! She deserves #1... she is The Lady, you know?
;)”
“My wife, a great singer in her own right, predicts that Ella will finish in first or 2nd place.”
35) Miley Cyrus
“Miley really is a wanderful singer! She is nice, peasful and belives. She may be 45 in the top singers, but deep down, all you people know she should be in the top 10! So Miley, keep on rockin’!”

”
“An stunning voice, so unique and special that its hard to believe its real, with an immensity of different sounds that only she can do.”
37) Leona Lewis
“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.”
“she is talented her voice dos remind me of mariah but with less tone more power she is 100 percent talented nothing bad everything good”

45) Kelly Clarkson

Not only can she belt out Aretha/soulful tunes like she is a sista, but she can also sing soft rock songs, like on her latest album. I bought all her albums, and the first one she put out didnt’ sell as well as the others, but it was amazing her range, and all the different styles she incorporated in each song. I love the fact she has variety in her style, and has a powerful voice, and reach high notes close to mariah’s.”
“I love Kelly. She’s not just the best singer, but a very good person, too.”
“she has the voice of a really old soul singer when i first heard her on the radio i thought she was black bout mid 40 then i so her on tv and there was this really beautiful young woman i think in bout 10 years time people will talk bout her like they do whitney she is my fave singer of all time that voice sends shivers up my spine”
46) Pat Benatar
“ONE OF THE BEST QUALIFIED VOICES OF OUR TIME. A ROCK ALL TIME ICON”
“No one can touch her for range. She’s trained in Opera for heaven’s sake. If you want to say some other female singer has better songs.. that’s fine. But if we’re only talking about voice quality.. I don’t see how she’s not #1.”
“My daughter thinks Pat Benatar is the best”
47) 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.

“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 has been one of the most influential artists ever. She deserves to be included in the top ten. A voice that makes you shiver...”

“just the best e ver”
65) Natalia Oreiro
66) 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.”
67) Giorgia Fumanti
“In my viewpoint,after having her CD and seeing her perform "Live" Giorgia definitely belongs here. You must hear her CD "From My Heart"”
“Her new Cd "From My Heart" is amazing showing off her immense talents and singing from Her Heart with such passion and love. I have seen her in Concert, too, and think she will soon be known to everybody as one of the greatest singers of all time.”
“I saw her live, she serenaded me, and fell in love. The most beautiful, powerful and well controlled voice by far. Buy her CD, you won’t regret it... I had to. The only others even close are Celine Dion and Sara Brightman. All the women ranked above her don’t have the whole package. Take for examples, Sarah McLachlan: Sweet voice but not very powerful or as well controlled. Christina Aguillera: Powerful and well controlled, but not as sweet. Don’t get me wrong, I love these ladies too, especially because they have amazing song writing abilities too, but pure singing, they can’t compare with my lovely, the one, the only Giorgia Fumanti.”
68) Gladys Knight
“The Queen Of Soul”
“yall I would say Gladys Knight is one of the best of our time. she is unbeatabaell when it comes to singing. if you lisen to here sing you will know what I mean.

70) 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”
71) Annie Lennox
“Come on now....Annie should be in the top 10 for sure!
She posseses one of the most soulful voices ever. She is so admired and respected by her contemporaries. She is such a dynamic and powerful live performer. What a mark she has left on the musical landscape!”
“Could any of the above reach the notes in ’There must be Angel’ the way Annie does. I DON’T THINK SO!! This is the vote for the best female VOCALIST, not the best female who can get her picture in the magazines without even singing a note!!!”
“WHY ON EARTH IS THIS LADY NOT IN THE TOP TEN. I am shock and stunned. Annie has one of the best voices in the world, apart from whitney & Aretha. What is wrong with this world. Annie Lennox is better than, Mariah, Christina, HANNAH MONTANA (come on!) JLO, Ashlee Simpson, and almost all of the above. Get a grip people!!!! Think before you vote!!”

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.
