What are your top 3 favorite female singers?

Sandy Denny has been mentioned.  Because she was chosen as the only person to sing duet with Led Zeppelin, I'm gunna have to dig into any possible recordings.

On theme, Alison Kruass who has done a couple things with Plant in recent years.

This does seem to be a theme occasionally and one that I enjoy.

Adele makes me wanna vomit.

I’m sure that there are a variety of legal medications available for people who enjoy her music.

I just adore singers of whatever sex, but especially female. Hmm, that doesn’t read quite right, but I’ll leave it.

Today I listened to Amy. And Tori. And Dido (need some kit that can reproduce some really low hz for her). Regina Spektor is very special. No sufficient words for Christine McVie.

And an outlier, a very special thing that I don’t often do, as I am not a fan of opera - Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, in the Decca recording of Marriage of Figgaro. Divine. Some may have heard majesty in the film Shawshank Redemption.

edit - and for crying out loud, two legends who must be named are Agnetha Faltskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad.  They sang in a small band known in Australia as ABBA.

Naturally, you meant to type "WHO" not "what" in your post. People are generally referred to as WHO.

If you mean ladies who can actually SING as opposed to belting out pop garbage:

Not natural at all. Just re-educated, perhaps in America.

Kiri Te Kanawa as well amazing voice ⭐️can I get a Amen?

An Amen is not enough.

I'm not quite sure how I picked up a cassette tape of Blossom Dearie all those years ago, doesn't matter. 

My girlfriend at the time who was a singer and musically trained at a conservatorium loved me for finding her,

Annie Lennox.  

Merry Clayton who features on the Stones Gimme Shelter.

From Wiki,

Summoned from bed around midnight by Nitzsche, Clayton – about four months pregnant – made her recording with just a few takes and then returned home to bed. It remains the most prominent contribution to a Rolling Stones track by a female vocalist
