    Come the fuck on Rolling Stone.


    Bjork before Karen Carpenter?


    No way in hell.


    I grew up on The Carpenters and love KC's voice so so much...my hip hop loving dad was the kinda guy who would play a Carpenters song RIGHT after listening to an Ice Cube or Dr. Dre record.


    And he knew all the words too.


    He's gangsta, I know.

    @SarasvatiBellerophon: Yes! Pat Benetar! 'Love is a Batterfield' was my theme song back in '85.


    Kindergarten was such a kick ass year.

    Dinah Washington. Cassandra Wilson. Koko Taylor. Cyndi Lauper.


    I'm glad to see Nina Simone on the list, though. Ms. Simone had a voice like nobody else I can think of.
