wow - why did this thread suddenly get ressurected? i got all excited when i saw lux quoted in the second message.... then i looked at the date. too bad.

that's all i wanted to say.

though i'd love to sing like cat power, imogen heap, emily haines, patty griffin, and stevie in the 70s.

Stevie in the late 70's - Tusk era.
Polly Jean Harvey.
And Martha Wainright.

As far as men go:

Nick Cave (not so much of a great voice, but love the way he sings).
