Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star) Andrea Echeverri (Aterciopelados) Karen O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) Kathleen Hanna (Le Tigre) Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth) PJ Harvey Gabby Glaser (Luscious Jackson) Bjork Bebe (Nieves Rebolledo) M.I.A. (Maya Arulpragasam) ....and Nico (Velvet Underground)
Maybe it's the booze but my vote for the decades best female Alt singer goes 2 Christina Aguilera..... but only in Mash-up form. Otherwise she's just another music industry packaged voice. If you've listened to these gems than you know what I mean. 1) A Stroke of Genius - (The Strokes vs. Christina Aguilera) 2) Dirrty Stones - (Christina Aguilera vs.The Rolling Stones) 3) Girl Wants (To Say Goodbye To) Rock and Roll - (Christina Aguilera vs. Velvet Underground vs. The Communards) 3) Xtina is a Monkee - (Xtina vs. The Monkees)
Would this have been late '80's? Did they stop in the middle of "Still in Hollywood" because of the moshing? That was a great show up until that point.
So many good ones. Chrissie Hynde Deborah Harry Shirley Manson Sinead O'connor Edie Brickell Indigo Girls Annie Lennox Melissa Etheridge (Maybe the best live show I've ever seen.)
