We are, much to our shame. The greatest female singer of them all.

Great singer but not a personal favourite of mine at all. Was thinking I was probably missing someone obvious from my own collection
What about Dolores…
The album she did with Massive Attack, or vice versa is good, even though the reviews are mixed.
Sade.
The greatest female artist of all time bar none.
Part of a band that was 1/4 female
Karin Dreijer
One half of The Knife
All of Fever Ray
Silent Shout by The Knife and Fever Ray by Fever Ray are probably my two favourite albums of the 00’s.
Any thoughts on Ann Wilson (Heart)?
An amazing female rock vocalist IMHO
Not quite an album… but I’ve been dipping in and out of Beach House this week. A very underrated band.
If you are discovering Dream Pop then you should explore the second half of the Cocteau Twins discography. Victorialand, Blue Bell Knoll and Heaven or Las Vegas are all classics of the genre. Lis Fraser gets most of the credit but Robin Guthrie is a soundscape genius.
*rediscovering.
I like what I’ve heard of Cocteau Twins but that’s little enough
Have a listen to A kissed out red floatboat.
Also, Pale Saints.
2001 Dr Dre. Ed-Ucation is one of the best tracks ever.
“What’s wrong with fallin’ in love with a N!gg3r with a bus pass??!”

Ah lads. That’s one of my favourite Irish albums. It was a travesty that they didn’t make the breakthrough. It didn’t help that they had an absolutely incompetent manager, one Peter McDowell, cousin of Michael.
It’s incredible, one of the greatest albums of all time, by anyone
