Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice.

Hope Sandoval is absolutely mesmerizing. some might remember her from Mazzy Starr. check out this youtube cut from massive attacks recent release heligoland. Paradise Circus...this song is hypnotic!

thx for the heads up Jax. good stuff.

i've been liking ms sandoval for many years now. enjoyed her in mazzy starr then later... jesus and mary chain. her more recent work with massive attack is really good too imho. not sure her current band, "the warm intentions" is my cup-o-tea but the older stuff mentioned above still makes the hair on my neck stand up. technically, she's not in the same league as many others mentioned in this thread. but if "haunting" and "mesmerizing" are the mark.....she's a contendert. hot as hell too! =).

Jax: the mood factor for hope sandoval is a critical element for me as well. this lady can have you looking for some prozac after one song if you're not in right state of mind lol!

thx again for the recommendations.....they've been added to "the list".

cheers
