Rank amateur compared to this. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Easy on the eyes too. I guess she's too young to be the girl from Ipanema. The mind hungers for that on which it feeds. |

I used to like this type of music, now it just sounds depressing, like a rainy day in a dirty city. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| KNathan Member since: Dec 9, 2018 Threads: 37 Posts: 547 | Mariah Carey is one of the greatest Female vocalists alive! :D Vision Of Love is ethereal and sucks you in from the plane during liftoff sounding opening to the very end is pure soul uplifting. :) Emotions is probably Mariah's hardest song to sing and she hits the top Soprano notes so effortlessly (A funny male YouTube poster said something like this. "I am a man and I never thought I could reach that high pitched Soprano note that Mariah does in Emotions. I happened to make that same high pitched Soprano note that Mariah makes when a night roach flew into my face suddenly. I didn't know I had it in me. I also found out I was a Sprinter as I ran the fastest I had ever run in my life after having a night roach fly into my face!" LMAO! :D |

| beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | My list, depending on my priorities and mood. Ella Fitzgerald Bette Midler Linda Ronstadt Barbra Streisand Karen Carpenter Whitney Houston General criteria - I will listen to any of them sing anything. List is probably in correct order for me, though. I can't say I've been listening for anyone lately, but all of my people are dead or not performing, so good thing there are hundreds of recordings of them. Very enjoyable (b list), but not up to the greats above: Sarah McLaughlin Celine Dion Norah Jones Aretha Franklin Ricki Lee Jones Cher Christina Aguilera Judy Garland Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |
