I like Sarah Brigthman and I think she is better than the ones listed there.

I use to think Sarah Brightman had the most awesomest voice ever back when I also thought Phantom of the Opera and Andrew Lloyd Webber were both the shit but as I listened to more and more and broadened my horizon more and more, Sarah Brightman just isn't that great.  I can't even listen to any of her recent stuff.

As for this poll, it's hard to say who is the best since there are so many different female vocalists that I like for many different reasons.  I can say the specific options given just plain suck.

Anyways, two that come up offf the top of my head

1. Ella Fitzgerald - you can't not like her.  She's amazing and if you think otherwise you're just wrong.
2. Lea Michelle - there are people better than her but as far as current female vocalists go, she's pretty awesome.

I would put Hayley Westenra on there since I love her to death but she really needs more vocal training in general.  She's great and I love her, but I can't call her the best femal singer sadly.

Yeah, I just said I like her, the best voice probably is from a women I dont know, and I agree with the bolded.
