[NEWS] TOP 250 FEMALE SINGERS OF THE 20TH CENTURY: #4 CHRISTINA AGUILERA

Originally posted on Yahoo! Voices:

As a singer, I have been obsessing about vocalists since before I started grade school. The obsession started with Whitney Houston, Julie Andrews, Andrea McArdle, and Crystal Gayle. All of them had such different voices and I studied them meticulously. Now, as an adult I am a songwriter, performer and vocal teacher and want to learn even more. I know there are voices that I haven't heard that deserve to be remembered. Researching each decade of the 20th century helped me discover some of these lost blues singers, musical theatre performers, and pop stars from yesteryear. 

 This list was helped in part by the following web sites: Rate Your Music, Wikipedia, Past perfect, Amazon, Cynamans, UGO, Listverse, Rocklist, Essence, Timout, Acclaimed Music, and Youtube. I hope that you enjoy discovering new singers and fighting about who should really be in the top 50.
