GREATEST FEMALE VOCALISTS OF OUR TIME!

[roccorules1]

Nope. Barbra Streisand is the BEST!!! All of the others have had vocal deterioration by the early thirties( including Whitney and Mariah) except La Streisand. Sorry

[truewoman100]

I love Beyonce voice

[Javichu80]

Mariah Carey the best one... The Queen of Queens...

[banshee492]

They are powerful but i dontliked because I expected more - just listened to linda ronstadt sing long long time and ill never be the same

[wam1469]

I am not a fan of Beyonce and Fantasia, but they can sing......the rest can really sang

[etxhioVEVO]

[rosamaryful]

QUEEN WHITNEY HOUSTON is the best famale vocalist of ALL TIMES!!! No other female's voice can compare to QUEEN WHITNEY!! She doesn't have to be nearly NAKED, throwing parts everywhere to get RECOGNITION!!!!

[TheGameChannel321]

I need to know, thanks... :0)

[edwardmatias]

Nobody can kill it like Beyonce!

[Amaury0913]

Whitney cant sing like she used no more

[mariaxxx529]

Yay Whitney, Celine, Mariah, Christina.

[rosamaryful]

Queen WHITNEY HOUSTON can sing better than these women could ever imagine!!

[Nofiih]

Celine & Mariah is the the best!! <3

[LoOkAtMyBeEp]

I of course skipped through Aguilera's parts , couldn't take all the screaming and unnecessary oversinging this early in the morning .

BEYONCE >

[myfathersprincess]

Oh of our time meaning 2000 and beyond....got it!

[zmcilroy1]

wheres charice pempengo or whitney houston..carrie underwood?...to this day no one can compare to whitney when she was in her prime. her voice was so powerful and pure...

[calanimimus]

MAN IT'S A INCREDIBLE VIDEO , AND I LOVE HOW YOU DESCRIBE EVERY SINGER!

[vall3y818]

4:50 NEVER HEARD SUCH CLEAN RUNS IN MY LIFE!!!!

[vall3y818]

yall haters....beyonce can SING!!! i was surprised fantasia was on here, beyonce can do things others cant, i was kinda with you guys on how she wasnt all that great, but i really looked at her performances before i judged and she is now one of MY TOP FAVS!!! OF ALL TIME!!! one thing that makes her great is she has vocal control! mariah carey has cracked, whitney, even christina, GO AHEAD AND TRY TO LOOK UP A VIDEO WERE BEYONCE CRACKS!! and if you do, send me that video(not gona happen!)

[imsofucingtired]

I can't at Beyonce being on this looooooool!

[1512735]

Most be a bunch of young adults making these picks,Every female singer today is trying to do what Ms.Pattie Labelle and Karen Clark have been doing for years,but they are not young and naked in their videos.best male is Rance Allen " PERIOD.

[RobRoyMH]

@1512735 It says "Of OUR TIME" not 1950s-60s

[willet4orange]

what about mariah carey and whitney houston? they r definately in the top 3 along with christina



[c0tt0nc4ndy4pple]

I don't know what has happened to Christina but her voice is starting to sound like garbage lately.

[Love10177]

80 people rejected the lessor Beyonce, why is she even on it?

[colonallingam]

hmm, my wife poova in malaysia sings like this all the time

[johnathandoe]

Please rename this video the best pop singers of YOUR time. Because when it comes to true vocalists the only one singer on this list I'd to give props to for emotion and originality if Fantasia. You can keep Christina, Beyonce, and Alicia, although those 3 are beautiful women but they are only DECENTsingers when compared to pop/mainstream singers. But I digress.

[thenoti1]

...what is this?RNB contest?

[hjklfc]

77 people got rejected bu Christina Aguilera....

[te7221]

take beyonce and other artist need mary j whitney jennifer hudson monica

[Rasheemspage]

Okay Fantasia and Alicia Need 2 come off this list now!!! U said the video is about the best VOCALISTS and alicia is ok but not one of the best when it comes 2 vocals..she can barely stay on key half the time..and Fantasia screams way 2 much theres jus not enough clarity in her voice..even thou Christina fucks uplive alot and can never hit a high note str8 on she still deseres 2 be here..and Beyonce is cool..But this list is not complete at all..only4 singers? 2 of which should not be there smh

[quintencornelius]

yeah, Mariah definitely needs to be on her as well as Patti Labelle

[TheSparkling1993]

none can pull it off as Beyonce and Christina <3... tho i think beyonce can kill christina anytime at everything but her range which dont matter when u have to scale up to hit a note or almost vomit ur stomach, lungs and diaphragma <.<...

and yeeah <.< why isnt mariah here!? shes still alive and makin music <.<

[nfsh10]

i only liked beyonce ! but im not her fan what about shakira? she has the most unbelieveable voice on the earth

[mikeylondon1987]

Beyonce has the best technique of anyone...she has the greatest vibrato, rance, and control. That's what makes a great singer. Not who can belt the best. MANY people can belt but that's all they have. Beyonce is the complete package

[8969deinze]

This should be called the great voices from their generation. But of all time?? Are you joking? Never heard of Karen Carpenter, Streisand, Aretha etc? They felt the songs. They sang from their hearts. Only Rumer & Katie Melua touch me, but these ladies in the video

sing with no feeling except to get filfthy rich & famous, and show off their 4/5 octave ranges. Leaves me cold, sorry!

[MoonSka52]

pedro orange love live.wmv - great band great song check it out

[darkino66613]

i dont think beyonce is in the same level of whitney mariah and christina

[itsMUSICY]

Beyonce - clear and warm belts, unique vibrato, perfect controls over crescendo and diminuendo, mastery falsetto, melisma...her technique is untouchable

[alwaysupportjb]

Beyonce voice is amazinggggggg <3

[MsTreysongz1]

Christina<<<<3

the best voice and greatest female singers of all time

Whitney Christina mariah ..hooooww

[MiNuEtTe33]

what about Lauryn Hill?????

[rosamaryful]

QUEEN WHITNEY HOUSTON is the BEST!!! FUCK the rest!!!

[AlyThree3]

where is charice? :O where is whitney?

[roxybadalutei]

jaclyn victor..hehheehe...just view on her performances on malaysian idol finale singing gemilang..and jaclyn victor's awesome performances 1 & 2..hehe..shes great,..

[MrNicebuddies]

@roxybadalutei I'm malaysian, please don't promote her with this way, let jaclyn shines in her stand and ability, we are not like filipino ok?? we don't promote our singer in youtube. please remove your comment, you just encourage the haters around the world to critics jaclyn harder..

[roxybadalutei]

@MrNicebuddies did i say anythg wrong??..she deserves to be in the spotlight too rght..shes as good as fantasia too..well, its entertainment..jac is an artist...whoever in this world has never been criticised??..

[MrNicebuddies]

@roxybadalutei nope, i didn't say you mentioned anything wrong. i do agree jac has spectacular talent, i just don't want the haters around the world say that jac is a screamer not a singer, moreover there is a lot of thing for jaclyn to improve, of course she got the voice and has big potential internationally but she not ready yet for world stage. hopefully you are not teased with what i am said earlier. =)

[roxybadalutei]

@MrNicebuddies teased of what??..hahaha..i luv jac..shes really great to me..its my opinion..its my comment..so what to u??..

[CeLiNeNiTiN]

WHAT AN ANNOYING VIDEO????Y DID U POSTED IT?

[NewWorldRob]

Of this Gen?? Bey Fantasia Jennifer Xtina Jill Scott...Monica maybe. No Alicia.

[omggblahhx3]

i feel like Beyonce could do so much more with her career. like her voice is absolutely amazing and one of a kind, but she chooses to be just any other r&b singer. if she wanted to she could be just as great as Christina Aguilera. like come on now, Christina has made some intelligent decisions which is why she is know to be legendary. idk shes still great, but if she just took that extra step she would be amazing.

[elithesmartguy]

@omggblahhx3 are you kidding me?! where's Christina's 16 grammys? where's her 5 number ones? she's a phenomenal singer, im not saying shes not but i think Beyonce has made her mark on music history just like if not more than Christina.

[musicishope15]

Beyonce and Christina are the queens of riffs and runs.

[SoulPowerful]

@musicishope15 Don't think so. The real queens of riffs and runs sing gospel music.

[Elsim]

She peaked fast and fell off of the scene for a while but Lauren Hill definitely deserves to be on the list. she always gave me the chills

[finallyrealasyhari]

christina awesome!!!!

[navijatt]

i feel like slitting my wrists everytime i hear or see beyonce's voice/face

[rugarbanks]

@navijatt well bitch do the world and youtube a favor... kill yourself...

[navijatt]

@rugarbanks we dont have to say shes good because shes black....shes awfull...awfull awfull

[imafan123456]

The first clip of Christina was great, but then she spoilt it with her relentless vocal runs and screaming.

[ZaiahRay]

FAITH EVANS

[BrooklynDaDon1]

YOU ONLY MAINTAIN TO PUT THE GREATEST AMERICAN VOCALIST...BUT THE ENGLAND WOMEN ARE TRUMPING AS WELL...MARSHA A., JESSIE J, ADELE....SOME OF OUR AMERICAN SINGERS CANT SEE THEM NOR COMPETE BUT BIG UPS TO BEYONCE AND CHRISTINA THEY WERE THEY 2 BEST TECHNIQUES WISE

[MsTreysongz1]

christina!!

[melly25k]

A young person made this, I can tell. Because I see no Dionne Warwick, Aretha, Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill? etc... I didn't know the national anthem would make me wanna shoot myself until christina came along. But thanks for not putting kesha on here! Seriously!

[MyOwnWoman]

@melly25k I guess that's why they put "our time" and not "all time". And not all young people agree with this...at all.

[njirem]

christina may be a white stupid crack whore but she can shure sing

[sweetheart4live]

@njirem she is not a white stupid crack whole you are one idiot what the hell....

[paconot]

These are the greatest vocalist? This is simply a list of your favorite "commercial artist." You would need a very narrow definition to classify these woman as the best of anything. From the perspective of pure vocal talent...these ladies would not make that list. I am going to post a video defining what "the best vocals" are and illustrate who emulates those qualities. I can guarantee that yodeling, screaming, and heavy vibrato are not on the list.

[lsaturn01]

@paconot AMEN this list is a joke granted some of these women can sing but the greatest please 

[XItsxANGELbaby]

its just QUEEN B beyonces voice is amazing is like unreal wooow the woman gives me goosebumps all the time

[kleyonce567]

am not tryna be racist, but black ppl can sing(no offence)

[kleyonce567]

actually its the great vocal of your time queen B

[lasentinellaa]

Vanessa Amorosi should be there too, but I like this video and the artists put in there :D

[zippyloop]

for me christina has to be the best. she has a really great tune

then its beyonce, but personality there all good.

[apeXwarning]

Ok, some awesome voices here, but a true talent vocally and for her writing ability for me is Teena Marie RIP...see if these cut it in 30 years time!

[KingRue101]

Where the Hell is Aaliyah????

[obik94]

instead of alicia keys (she makes me bored) id rather see whitney houston, but the video isnt so bad.

[Evenor48]

Alicia Key ....:)

[theoneandonly2503]

Aguileraaaaaaaaaaaa! What a crazy voice!!!

[BOOM7STAR]

Diana Ross, Minni Riperton Ella Fitzerald... btw Mari Carey has been compared to Minni Riperton, but Minni Riperton voice range is higher than Mari Carey :)

[theoneandonly2503]

@BOOM7STAR Minnie's range is not higher than Mariah's one. Mariah's highest note is G#7 check your facts, Minnie never hit that note. And she's been compared to Minnie only for her whistle, cause the rest of Mariah's voice is way more powerful.

[paconot]

@theoneandonly2503 and Boom7star. Rachelle Ferrell is the GODESS OF VOCALS. CHECK YOUR FACTS.

[TheThemusiclover]

Beyonce has the most beautiful voice 

[roxybadalutei]

ouch..jaclyn victor..don agree??..check her vid, jaclyn victor awesome performances 1 & 2..plus gemilang finale ..hehehe

[TbabyVocals1]

Christina Ag=Queen of runs

Fantasia =Soul sista

Beyonce=GREAT TECHNIQUE

[gangstaladie]

wtf theres no greatest female vocalist competiton with out mariah carey in it smh u cant have music without MC

[chipchang1]

alicia keys is the hottest and the best

[EnglishAB1]

Whitney is far better than Xtina. Was she even there?

[thebdreamer]

.. I don't know why I don't like that much Christina, I mean her music is great and I respect her job she is such an artist but to me she screams a lot. just an opinion, even if I say she screams well for sure she screams better than me lol

[db200508]

@thebdreamer she does scream but she she just sings in her lower tone she is fantastic i love christina to death. but they girl can most def sing her ass off.

[thebdreamer]

@db200508 Yeah I know she is a great singer :)

I preffer Beyoncé though

[HurricaneSalim]

WHAT ABOUT WHITNEY? (Minus the coke)

[TheVagolfer]

You can have all these " screamers" give Sade every time.

[spareplanet]

@TheVagolfer That's right, my man!

[0anaarkadievna0]

beyonce is just a showwoman. christina is the voice. alicia is great too.

[Cc7618]

No list of best vocalist of our time isn't legit without Mariah and people may deny but they only know its the truth.

[singerman2008]

@Cc7618 mariah sounds like shit!

[Kurosato18]

But I also look up to Beyonce', Alicia, Adele, Sara Bareilles and most especially, Fantasia who's the first ever to send chills down to my spine since Yolanda Adams.

"In the music industry of our generation, signature is what matters. You can keep your stage and microphone, not until you sound just a bit too close to the other"

[Kurosato18]

Christina is one of the most successful raw talents of our generation... See how unique her voice is? it's because she didn't tend to sound like the others..influenced by artists yeah..I might say that she's a hybrid and not just rare but precious.... Til now, no singer can ever sound like her!! The way she sang Beautiful, The voice within and the rest... d@mn songs can't just be covered by anyone. in fact..no one managed to kill'em.

[LidaAsh]

christina sucks...

[ashley1919100]

@LidaAsh HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT

[LidaAsh]

@ashley1919100 uhh.... with great pride...

[MrFoolish2009]

woo, got goosebumps beyonce. woooo

[babyblack35]

christina ,fantasia,jennifer hudson,adele and jazmine sullivan.

[hessounusual95]

1:07 is just a falsetto, Christina actually doesn't have that great control of the whistle register. Barely any she usually just throws her falsetto up as high as it can go, An example of her actually using her whistle is in the Hello performance in Mulan. She's good... but she needs lessons because her technique is awful, she's losing her voice , damaged it.

[CaramelCarter2010]

the video says greatest vocalist of OUR time as in the greatest vocalist of this new generation of music! and i agree with everyone!

great video

[kaity281]

dam , christina aguilera gives me goosebumps all oveer . im a huuge faan :D

[TheSmtb]

beyonce is the best, her technique is awesome. i love you bee

[moNika1625]

Beyonce is so underrated. Such a shame....Ok, she's famous etc...but still....she doesn't take credit she really deserves. People just talk about her shaking her ass, and being bootylicious, but the truth is that she is an unbelievable good singer.

[Shazni1409]

Xtina uses a very bad techinique and it's been proven loads of times just watch the vids on ere u really need 2 sort this vid out coz ur missing sme really awesome people

[Shazni1409]

Mariah carey shud be in ere coz she had the best voice eva 5 octaves, the best technique eva, she's sexy, can do amazing runs well really she's just an angel

[lalatrinigirl]

people are getting confused; their are singers and then their are singers, where is Annie Lennox, Patti Labelle, Brandy and off course Ms. Houston, I agree with Fantasia, and Beyonce

[Shazni1409]

@lalatrinigirl and mariah carey

[ikaikawai]

she and all of her generation are incredibly talented singers and they all take a back seat in the bus next to Patti Labelle whose power and range these young baby voices have not yet attained! The comparison is like a string quartet next to a symphony orchestra! Bar none!!

[ikaikawai]

@ikaikawai TO ALL YOU VOCALISTS EXPERT COMMENTATORS HERE:

How old are you all,...10 - 15yrs??!!....The scope and combined knowledge of all of you is about 20-25 years, a raindrop in the ocean of female vocalists, not one of you even mentioned the Queen's of Pop that these young beginners have all been inspired by and aspired to emulate which is obvious in their performances the great one's I'm speaking of?!!....Aretha, Patti, Gladys, Barbara, Liza, just to name a few all who have - continued-->

[paconot]

@ikaikawai PREACH IT!

[ilovekelly75]

1. Kelly Clarkson

2. Mary J. Blige

3. Idina Menzel

4. Beyonce Knowles

5. Christina Aguilera



[shippo481]

Why the fuck is Fantasia on here! she is the worst! all she does is scream!

[shippo481]

Beyonce should not be in this. Mariah used to be a good singer but lost her voice. Christina is the best

[eugenemusictv]

it's funny how some will like xtina but not mary J. Blige makes no sense but yea MJB is a better vocalist and singer xtina be doing to much even she had a better range range doesn't make a singer or vocalist and I agree with Beyonce

[laffy]

@eugenemusictv negative MJb is ok vocally

[zorinmawii]

I also like some unique & husky voice like Tania tucker,bonnie tyler,amy winehouse,janis joplin,melissa etheridge,dilana robichaux,pink........

[zorinmawii]

Greatest female vocalist of all time-1.Mariah Carey 2.Charice Pempango 3.Celine Dion 4.Whitney houston 5.Joss Stone 6.Leona Lewis 7.Tiffany Eugenio 8.Christina Aguilera 9.Beyonce Knowles 10.Katherine McPhee

[rheyveen]

the first name that registers into my brain when you say greatest vocalist is withney nonetheless

[decatoe2008]

What about Kate Bush ?

[BMEZY]

this does not make any sense at all.. how can you make a greatest female VOCALIST list without including the legendary mariah carey or whitney houston or celine dion which makes up the vocal holy trinity... u might as well not made a list!! are you SICK?? the mediocres will never be able to match this skill of the holy trinity.. u trippin!!

[AmericaPoop]

UM BEYONCE, ALICIA, AND CHRISTINA AND JHUD MAKE DA LIST FO ME

[MsJanaemarie]

I agree with Christina Auguilera . I like Chris's voice and Alicia Keys, she is really talented. Of course Mary J Blige, and Mariah Carey

[louie200353]

mariah, alicia, got soul got voice, got music inteligence for composing, the total DIVA package.. not just remodeled or fabricated!

[MissSamira59]

Beyoncé is the best ! her technique is so GREAT !

[rsin213]

@MissSamira59 you must not sing because you think that bitch could sing. beyonce's voice is airy. its not hard to do what you call TECHNIQUE. haha look up mariah videos or adele. some whitney videos to. these girls sing. they actually have range in there voice. and just to tell you mariah has been doing all what she's. doing and what she is going to do in the future because she is a no talent ass hoe that copy's. kinda like a nock off

[MissSamira59]

@rsin213

you suck faggot. Get a life, did i talk to you ?

[QueenBeyonceAddict]

@rsin213

[HendrixPinkM]

@rsin213 You are obviously ignorant.

[kkamreyz]

[Christinaaquest25]

[MissSamira59]

@Christinaaquest25

[Riddley313]

So where is Adele?

[iwannab0123]

vocallist....lol!!

[ChrisHamptonTV]

Where is keyshia cole.....

[nextlevelshiznitt]

learn to spell- it's killing me

[mikedh21719]

These women are definitely not the best singers of all time. Gimme a break. Squealing is not music!!!!

[applejous]

@mikedh21719 it says of OUR time. not of ALL time.

[rsin213]

@mikedh21719 music is how you express yourself asshole. some people are unique with their style of voice. your so called squealing takes technique. have you heard of power notes chest voice. asshole not everyone voice is soft and light. some musicians have strong deep voices. music would be boring if it was all one type o sound or style. who ever wrote this go fuck yourself.

[QueenBeyonceAddict]

@mikedh21719

of OUR time. can't read ?

[thesword77]

All of these women are generic as fuck, people need to get past this generic boring music. I mean go listen to Melissa Kaplan or Annalisa Tornfelt just to name two who use their voice in an origional manner. Just cause you hit high notes doesnt mean your good in fact alot of these women are using it as a crutch, but i do like how celine isnt on here considering she has probably the best voice ever even though her music is cheesy.

[trayjt12]

Omg 3:50 Love ti Lol

[AlexandrovichHans]

1. Christina can't hit whistle notes, it's just an extension of head voice which is occaisonally able to occur in sopranos and is technically used in some rare operas. She can't go anywhere above an A6.

2. Mariah should be here because she can still sing she's just very raspy from her past 20 years of continuous singing and dedication to her fans. and she can actually sing whistle notes.

3. Where the fuck is Celine????!!!!??!?!?!?!?!!? she still has a voice why does everyone count her out?

[kelvinpyaeko]

@AlexandrovichHans let it be..this list is complete non-sense...and the logic he gave why those singers r brilliant is also flawed..like christina vocal range is powerful..what the heck..he can't even know the basic notion of how resonance forms the power and thinks screaming with big tone as xinta does is POWER. oops

[ajaybubbles4u]

Jennifer Hudson has a powerful voice but she looses control of it a lot. She is a very iffy performer. She might give you power but not much skill or soul. Then another day she might really dig into a song... Mariah Scary needs to drink a bucket of cold medicine before she attempts to sing live again... Does she hear herself. She probably gets on the stage and thinks to herself, "damn I sound good just like i did when Kelly Price was in the background go mariah go mariah." lmao.

[ajaybubbles4u]

Mariah Scary sounds terrible live. I've heard cat fights that were more soothing to my ears. She was okay back in the day all she has is her whistle register. After Kelly price and her sister left her sound has not been the same. Mariah would be nobody without her old background singers. Think about if Mariah carey and the big 350lbs plus Kelly price switched bodies who do you think would be on top. huh? exactly....Leona has a beautiful voice but no control. Toni, Brandy, Jazmine are singers.
