can you give me the name of a good female vocalist?

I am looking for a CD with some good female vocalist tracks on it to demonstrate the clarity of my stereo system.
I am looking for clarity and purity like Amy Lee (Evanescence) - "Lithium" and "Good Enough". Paul Oakenfold features a female vocalist on his Another World CD, the song is called Sanvean, but there is no artist information.

If that gives you an idea of what I am looking for, please give me some more ideas. I am hoping to find some opera maybe with orchestral background. Any favorites or suggestions?

i was actually going to suggest Amy lee!

she has a song called haunted that has a choir in the background- just about any song she sings would work.

i would also look at some songs by paramore-she(i dont know the lead singers name, i think it might be heyley)has a really clear voice in SOME songs

Charlotte Martin is also a good option. she has a not widely known song called your armor that she has a very clear voice in, but the songs not my favorite, so i don't know how much you;ll like it.


good luck-i hope you find somthing!

I just heard about someone named "Sissel", her voice is crystal clear and gorgeous. Here's a sample:

Just scroll to the middle of the page

Also, if you go with something like "wishing you were somehow here again" from the Phantom of the opera, you'll get a full orchestra with a high clear voice.

Hope this helps.

Enya's "May It Be" is a really good song with beautiful clear vocals from the Lord of the Rings soundtrack.

well this singer is kinda old school but dinah washington has a ridiculously clear voice. she sang "what a difference a day makes" and other jazz classics in her day. her voice is clear that you can understand every word and phrase that she utters. plus, she's very relaxing to listen to.
