This is going to sound really stupid but I am going to be honest with you all:
Although I have always loved all kinds of music in various languages, I never listened to country.... mostly because I would get teased by my siblings and a few other family members that I had "forgotten my NYC roots." The older I got the more stupid I realized that was so I've been listening to it more and more. I love female artists/ band with female vocals because I like to sing along, my list is pretty short and I am looking to add onto it so I was wondering what country ladies you like to sing along with?

I like Gretchen Wilson, Miranda Lambert, Reba Mcentire, Dolly Parton, Faith Hill, Martina McBride, Sugarland, Lady Antebellum.... annd thats all I can think of off the top of my head lol, left my iPod in the car... sooo list some of yours?

    Oh - how could I forget??!? Alison Kraus. LOVE her voice!
  • Alison Krauss. She has a wonderful solo voice, and is comparable to Emmylou Harris in her ability to harmonize beautifully with a variety of voices on duets. Check YouTube for her duet with James Taylor in "How's The World Treating You?", and with Brad Paisley in "Whiskey Lullaby" for two great examples.

    And from the classic C&W era, you can't beat Miss Patsy Cline.

    Most beautiful voice in country music by far.

    Martina McBride is also a favorite.

    I grew up on country music, but I've never been too crazy about female singers (any genre), so my list is pretty short.

    I am a big fan of Patsy Cline, Miranda Lambert, and the earlier stuff from Reba and Martina McBride.

    Anybody but Taylor Swift and the Dixie Chicks! That's an immediate channel-switcher on the radio

    Martina McBride has the voice of an angel.
    Dolly and Patsy are great to listen to their song stories.
    Shania is wonderful to listen to and has great videos, hope she gets over her demons and makes a comeback.
    Glad to see Carrie Underwood doing so well and being so classy about it.
    Miranda Lambert is sweet and cute but sometimes is a bit twangy..
    Sugarland for sure..

    For my money, Martina McBride has the best voice in pop country music, hands down.
