Do you have any recent corollaries? Or is this style beyond us now?

I don't follow much popular music these days.

I love Annie Lennox

I'll die on the hill that Pat Benatar is better than Joan Jett, or just about anyone from the 80's.

The holy trinity of '80s rock goddesses is Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar, and Joan Jett. So you're into the second person of that. I love Pat's music. Who can forget Love is a Battlefield? Joan's Bad Reputation and I Love Rock and Roll are true classics. But my heart belongs to Stevie by a Landslide.

Emmylou Harris, always and forever. Linda Ronstadt is a very close second.

Emmylou singing my favorite Beatles song:

Like the Oak Ridge Boys song says, "Heaven is a girl named Emmylou."

Chrissy Amphlett - lead singer of the Divinyls - Aussie band. She oozed sexuality and was a banger of a singer too.

Oh my God, did she ever! I Touch Myself will be playing in my mind long after I'm dead.

Not bad at all.

Brandi Carlile!

She may not be an audience favorite, but Dame Vera Lynn needs to be honored here. She was already a popular singer, but gave her all to support our allied troops in WWII.

This song may be known as the ending tune of Dr. Stangelove, but it stands as Lynn's heartfelt tribute and message of hope to our soldiers fighting the Nazis:

Maybe I've mentioned her before here, but let's do it gain, just in case:

Still singing and lookin good, all those years later - her 2007 Induction Ceremony (with the Ronettes) to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame:

There's so many great female artists in different genres. I listen to a lot of different music.

Metal- Otep just kills it. Maria Brink from In This Moment
Rock- Lzzy Hale from Halestorm, Janis Joplin
Punk- Brody Dalle from The Distillers
Alt- Atlantis Morissette hands down
Country- Morgan Wade, Marren Morris, Hailey Whitters
Pop- Lily Allen, Meg Myers (not sure she's pop), Billie Eilish

There's way too many too list
