Ranking this female vocalists

[Ladle Ghoulash 54,675]

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.

Based on technical capabilities only (not range, not tone/timbre, no personal preference/attachment, just technique):

Whitney Houston 

Aretha Franklin

Celine Dion 

Lady Gaga 

Mariah Carey

Ariana Grande

The concept of Amy Winehouse having better technique than Judy

 

Also Ari def has better technique than Mariah. More versatile, better support. Mariah basically destroyed her voice, whereas I think Ari will be able to sustain her voice for decades to come.

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

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.

She has some beautiful songs & strong pipes, but vocally, compared to the other women you listed...... 😬

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.
