Ella Eyre, Paloma Faith. Lots more two that I can't remember but YANBU, it seems like they're the 'go-to' women when a dj needs female vocals.

A lot of them sound very similar to each other. I do like a lot of their songs when I hear them on the radio but can't tell who's who.

I can listen to Paloma Faith but don't like watching her. Her quirkiness has gone beyond the endearing stage for me.

Me and my girls like belting out an Adele tune when they come on the radio. I have to wind the windows up in case we scare any passers by Grin

Taylor swift does a lot of duets but they are with country people at events so not released.

Love Taylor Swift. Every track on her album is suitable for my DD to listen to. Can't say the same about many others.

There's a popular upcoming artist called Sophie Chandler who's getting good reviews. Not my cup of tea but worth checking out! She's on YouTube.

Taylor gives me a pain in my arse.

Rita Ora's voice makes me want to strangle hamsters.

I've managed to avoid Ellie Goulding but live in fear of her being thrust upon me.

Maybe if all you listen to is daytime local radio. With Spotify and youtube it couldn't be easier to discover unique and talented musicians. It is like standing on top of a vast pile of gold and claiming you are poor. All you have to do is look for it.
