Who has the prettiest singing voice you've heard??

[yhelothar]

I'm not a huge fan of vocal music, and once you get to a certain level it becomes subjective. Here's a few favorites of mine for the little bit I listen to vocals...

Billie Holiday
Ella Fitzgerald
The guy from Sigur Rós

Those I consider pretty, but stuff along the Tom Waits line is what I enjoy hearing more.

lol I thought the guy from sigur ros was a girl for the longest time until I decided to look up a music video.

Not pretty but, she could take you to the limit and push you through the other side. The one and only Janis Joplin.

The most unique and distinct voice in the history of music, bar none. Hear her sing once and you'll never mistake her voice for any other. But this is my favorite of her http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NRzxu_Hak8

Six pages and no one mentions Eva Cassidy? Perhaps because cancer took her before she became really popular. Check any of her songs on youtube-she was the epitomy of a "pretty" voice.

k.d. lang is no slouch either.
