Nice to know we have the same top 2!      I looked through all the lists and though Faith Hill was on many of them, no-one had her as high.

[davidjag79]

These are my top 3 female vocalist in the industry today:



Of course Celine is my fav... i think she is flawless great breath support cant wait for Taking Chances tour dvd (hopefully this fall) ...followed by Christina Aguilera she has such a soulful and powerful strong voice new album is scheduled to come out this fall... rounding out my top 3 is Leona Lewis she has an amazing voice so strong check out her new song Happy.
This is only my opinion, just for fun! What do you think?
                 Honorable mention:Mariah Carey which she is amazing but i think she has went away from her great work she is much better with ballads although her new remake of i want to know what love is.. is very good!  Whitney Houston i want to love her new album but i dont im not going to bash her because she is a legend but her voice is nowhere near what it use to be. and finally Pink i think she is greatly under rated! She is talented and has a very strong voice!

[Bartek]

I'm totally agree with you . In case of vocalist they are the top three. Fourth and fifth may be Beyonce and Charice.

Edited by Bartek, 13 September 2009 - 02:54 PM.

[disadiva]

My Top Three are in This order:

1: Celine Acourse.

2: Whitney Houston.

3: "She is a new diva in the making and i am loving her voice..she has a classical soprano voice,
and she has shoved Mariah from the third place of my favorits...Top 3.
This Classical new diva is no other then the 48 year old Susan Boyle.

4-5
Mariah and Beyoncé.

I love Charice also but still i am not..really feeling her "Dopey"
i don´t know why maybe cause she refers to Celine,Whitney to much.

[westwing]

Céline, Barbra Streisand and Whitney.

Anyone, and I do mean anyone, can have a hit album these days. And furthermore, it's literally painful to listen to some of the other so-called "stars" singing live, without the comfort of their sound engineers and producers who are in fact responsible for 80% of their pre-recorded sound. For instance, Madonna's live singing voice has throughout her career been a complete joke.

The deciding factor is which artist and voice can stand the test of time, and produce quality material over the course of two, three, four and even FIVE (Barbra) decades. There is NO competition for these three ladies and their undisputed talent.

People are still listening to, and buying, Frank Sinatra songs from the 1940's, 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, 1980's... NO ONE will be listening to Leona Lewis, Aguilera or Beyoncé 5 or 10 years from now. Let alone 30 years. Give me a break.

[B.R.K]

1) !!!Celine Dion!!! (Of course )

2) Aretha Franklin & Barbra Streisand

3) Ajda Pekkan, Turkish artist. She is 63 years old. She has wonderful voice and Turkish people call her Superstar Ajda

I think Barbra & Aretha is not the same class with Celine!!

[the_hero_ricky]

If u said so, I think Tina Turner top the list!!!!!!

[bertrand]

What Whitney Houston???? She has almost no voice anymore and Mariah is loosing her voice as well ...

Ajda pekkan still on top in turkey but you are right. barbra and aret is not the same class with celine.. however, i didn't see that these artists should have same class.. then, maybe leona lewis is second.. because, i think mariah and whitney can't sing live anymore..

[celinesounds]

1. Celine Dion


2. Whitney Houston

3. Mariah Carey

[Lymon]

This is for their overall careers, including their peaks. Not just today.

1. Mariah

2. Whitney

3. Celine

Those 3 cannot be beaten when it comes to overall career vocals.

I agree with  you!!!

But If they have a chance to a " Battle Of Voices"  I think Celine is The Best!!!

Celine Dion has a very powerful voice. Even Mariah has a talent of whistle notes, I think it is not enough to down Celine.Whitney is great also!!!
I like the three of them!!!
      Sorry 4 my bad EngLis!!!!

[Black Kitten]

in order:

1. Celine Dion- i still believe her vocal abilities remain unsurpassed up to this day. her voice and control is UNTOUCHABLE.

2. Mariah Carey- she's always been my 2nd favorite vocalist ever since i was a little kid. i look up to her.

3. Whitney Houston- the emotion she puts on every single song she sings is unbelievable. despite of the changes in her range and vocals, she's still one amazing interpreter.

[ILoveDeltaGoodrem]

my top would be

Delta Goodrem
Celine ( of course)
The Veronicas ( that makes 4..but oh well lol)

x

[celine-addict]

1. Whitney
2. Mariah
3. Celine

Before anyone jumps on my opinion either, I don't give a crap about vocal decline. They are all great singers, whether it be 20 years ago, or today.

[Scramasboy]

Celine Dion OF COURSE! Best of the best!
Tina Turner
Alison Krauss
Kelly Clarkson is a close fourth. I love watching her sing live, she has so much power and is so raw and emotional. It's awesome.

And this is from yesterday, today, and for tomorrow. :] Alison is amazing, ya'lls who dont know her, should know her.


I really don't like Aretha's voice. It was always OK but not superfantastic like Whitney and Mariah's years ago and Celine's years ago and now. But, of course, everyone is allowed their favs.

1. Different strokes for different folks.

2. At least with my rankings, I was talking about overall career vocals and not just a specific time, and who I preferred overall in terms of voice. I can't speak for everyone but that's just my opinion.

A complete lie. If you've heard stuff from her Who's That Girl, Blond Ambition and Girlie Show Tours, she has had very strong vocal performances and she is able to do a very honest ballad. Even on her current tour she did You Must Love Me and Don't Cry for Me Argentina beautifully.
