hiphop is still no1 for me...........but there are times i want to listen to some slow tunes

i been enjoying come away with me.......like her voice the sound of the piano and some trebles. i been a r&b fan from the very beggining so that would count too

i want something "listenable" though............the one with ones with good melodies.
foreign song is not my thing though, cant listen to those italian songs

i would aprreciate any reccomendation

I don't know how much you'll like her, being a Hip Hop fan and all (I like a lot of hip hop myself), but I really like Feist. Check out the album "The Reminder."

I also like Fiona Apple, Regina Spektor, Tori Amos...

 

[xenithon]

Hayley Westenra, Loreena McKennit, Delta Goodrem, Miriam Stockley, Sarah Brightman, Monica Salmaso.

 

[R_burke]

Aaron Neville - Bring it on Home
Johnny Mathis - Open Fire, Two Guitars

Both are amazing vocals

and are well recorded also

The album Let It Die is rockin' my world right now. I'll have to look into The Reminder!

 

[scoobie]

Jeff Buckley

 

[c0mfortably_numb]

Sarah Brightman

IMHO 'Let It Die' is the better album - I just can't quite get into 'The Reminder', despite numerous listens.

Other suggestions could include Diana Krall, Madeleine Peyroux, Zulya, Judie Tzuke, Eva Cassidy, Beverley Craven...I could go on and on. Right now I'm listening to Katie Buckhaven's debut album and there's some delightful recordings on that too!.

For males you could try Jack Johnson?

See this thread on Sarah McLachlan. She has a great voice and some very nice music.
