Ladle Ghoulash 55,400 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Ngl for all of her technical virtuosity, Mariah basically makes me feel nothing. Judy Garland, on the other hand? One of the warmest, richest, most emotive voices I can think of. Y’all really are sleeping on the OG doll.

NUTELLA 31,421 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Idk why, but Whitney having the nickname "The Voice" will always annoy me for some reason Aretha, Mariah & Tina are probably my fave voices listed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technicality aside, there’s a reason Judy’s concert at Carnegie Hall is considered the greatest night in entertainment. Id say in the sense of overall entertainment she is #1 She knew how to sing, when to move and be still onstage and when to change things up. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamite 67,803 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) I can't decide where to put most of these... They are all great singers, most of them share the top spot but I would rate Cher, Amy Winehouse and Adele at the bottom, just because they're not quite as amazing. I would also put Gaga slightly behind the likes of Whitney, Mariah and Celine in their prime.

MACATL 2,204 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Based on what moves me most, All #1 : Whitney, Celine, Mariah - they are equals in their own lanes. Listening to each in their prime, one can be my favorite over the others just depending on my mood. 2) Tina Turner - the one voice in this list that truely energizes and MOVES me with its grit mixed with power. Slaps u in the face and wakes you the hell up 4) Aretha - many will consider her the best, but, while able to hit crazy notes, he tone has just never been my favorite. Still amazing. 3) Amy Winehouse - a true gem of raw vocal talent. It oozed from her so naturally. U can tell no training was necessary. 4) Judy Garland - rich tone and powerful belts like no other. 5) Cher - truly iconic, unmistakable, love-it-or-hate-it voice. Personally, I love it. So much emotion and personality, and underrated power. Her national anthem is absolutely one of my faves. 7) Gaga - Gaga’s voice is a sweet spot for me. Gorgeous tone, versatile as all get out and can be quite powerful (sometimes she overreaches though). 8) Adele - shes wonderful, but I can’t listen to her for very long periods. 9) Ariana - VERY talented, but missing depth and emotion for me. Shes Mariah VERY light, and her poor enunciation really annoys me. You’re missing Barbra Streisand and Chaka Khan on this list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUTELLA 31,421 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) Random (& grim) shout out to Merry Clayton. She's no where near as famous as the other women you listed, but her vocal contribution to one single song in particular is legendary. She was pregnant at the time & called into the recording studio (woken up in the middle of the night) to feature on Gimme Shelter w Rolling Stones. They only did a few takes. Her big solo is short (2:43 - 3:10), but she put so much into it that she ended up suffering a miscarriage because of it. So ****ing sad. But it gives you chills. One of the creepiest, most powerful music moments I can think of Edited August 22 by NUTELLA 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOT 3,672 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 Gaga number 1 for me. I like her voice the most. Whitney and Judy fight it out for number 2. Amy and Mariah are the two that just don't do it for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put MC higher than Ariana because she can still produce sound with her vocal issues, and has more or less learnt to sing through her nodules, Ari has certainly improved in the tension issues that plagued her before tho. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
