Fun Fact: Spears can't actually sing. Her voice is pitch corrected by computers and here comes the big shocker

she lip syncs too.

I do love Christina Aguilera's voice, but not her music. I'm waitin for the day when she gets too old to do "popular" music and starts singin gospel.

X2.

Katie Manure (Melua) just makes me want to vomit most of the time.

I'm surprised Nelly Furtado hasn't been mentioned yet, can't sing full stop...

And the Mary Black comment. I would agree that her most recent "country-eque" albums really don't do it for me, but man did she have a set of vocal cords when she was young.

As for overarrated, just about every female artist that came out of either Nick or the Disney Channels. Not so much that they're bad as much as they all sound exactly the same (which is boorrrrinngg).

I dont. She sounds great in film clips, but not so much live. She sounds like one of those people who practise long notes all day without actually playing any music: she embellishes way too much and it sounds awful.

I'm also nominating Feist whilst I'm thinking about it - 1,2,3,4 might have sold a shed load of iPods; but it doesn't mean she can sing!

i'd have to disagree, she's a good singer singing bad pop music. look for her live stuff, acoustic ballads, there was a leaked song that was written for someone else that was really good. (GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND)

Can't believe someone said Kate Bush

I only really hate female singers that try to use a kind of "whispery air" at the end of a word/lyric etc and prolong it. Anyone can do that, there's no power there, it just sounds utterly annoying.. stop it, stop it, stop it!!

 

[leftear]

Lady Gaga
she looks and acts like she's on drugs, and her songs are stupid and generic

 

[jilgiljongiljing]

Diana Krall is alright, I wouldnt call her overrated and put her in the same list as Miley Cyrus. Britney spears, Celiene Dion, Gwen Stefani and gang, thats very unfair and she is definitely better than that.

 

[Nocturnal310]

Norah Jones (she should try more genres)

Mariah Carey

Celine Dion

 

[majkel]

Patricia Barber - she makes my eyes and ears highly dissatisfied. However she's a great artist for die hard audiophiles focused on "details" instead of music.

I'm also going to add Cheryl Cole from Girls Aloud to the pile.

If live outside of the UK I'll explain why, she's a judge on the talent show 'X-Factor' - When it comes to her performing her new début solo live single on the same show - What does she do?

You guessed it, she's mime's the whole song and it still sounded like a pile of crap - LOL

 

[bass_nut]

Norah Jones .. she sound like she had too much alcohol before each recording session

 

[dunski]

Another one for Miley Cyrus... That new song on the radio makes me cringe everytime.
I get what I like to call the '******-chills' (any O&A fans?).
