Who are your three favorite female singers?


I have favorites, but would like to hear from others.  Thanks

Anyone want to venture in Brazilian music, listen to Elba Ramalho. If you can find “Coraçao Brasileiro”, she was at the height of her vocal control (circa 1983).
To Shelby Lynne I'd add and after some deep thoughts
Dawn Upshaw
Ellen Foley

that makes three. Hard competition though..
