Create a playlist. Strong female singers

[WeAreOnTheRoadToNowhere]

I'm putting together a playlist and looking for suggestions
Female singers
I like belting it out in the car when I'm alone
My 2 favourite singers are Mary Coughlan and Kirsty MacColl. Florence and the machine, 4 non blondes and Alanis Morissette are sounds I like and sing along with
Can you add anything?

Try the Vagina Anthem by Hungry Hearts.

Live On Release
Pat Benetar
The lady from Nightwish
L7

Amy Winehouse.

"What kind of fuckery is this..."

Floor Jansen is the Nightwish singer. I was just coming on to recommend her!

Pink, Cyndi Lauper, Dolly Parton, Cher, Kelly Clarkson

Anything by:
Aretha Franklin
Nina Simone
Gloria Gaynor
Dusty Springfield
Annie Lennox
Alison Moyet
Barbra Streisand

Fleetwood Mac - any number where Christine McVie or Stevie Nicks is the lead singer - since Christine's sad death last week I have had Songbird as an earworm

Simone Simons from Epica

Big Mama Thornton - hound dog
Tracy Chapman - Baby can I hold you tonight
Etta James - I just want to make love to you

You have excellent taste @WeAreOnTheRoadToNowhere , I particularly love Mary Coughlan.
I would add Melissa Etheridge. If you don't know her, google and listen to "you can sleep while I drive".

I've got a four hour long "strong female singers" playlist - a couple of tracks at random;
Stevie Nicks - rooms on fire
The cranberries - zombie
Tracy Chapman - fast car
Patti Smith - dancing barefoot
Bjork - play dead
Sia - alive
Sam Brown - stop
Paula Cole - where have all the cowboys gone?
Nina Simone - I got life
Kate Bush - cloudbusting + running up that hill

Sara Bareilles- Brave

Karine Polwart- Rivers Run

@NannyR is it on Spotify?

i have an all female playlist on Spotify. I add to it all the time. Most people take ages to notice it's all women and then they're a bit shocked.

Ooh, I'm going to try Mary Coughlan based on your other recommendations!

Alison Moyet
Christine McVie

And closest to a guilty pleasure... Patsy Cline :)
