Fefe Dobson
Brie Larson
Bonnie McKee
Lisa Loeb
Maria Mena

Aslyn
Cori Yarckin
Leslie Mills

The good:

Skye Sweetnam (worried about that second album after "Superstar.")
Annie
Mandy Moore
Katy Rose
Saving Jane (close to the great, but just a notch below the greats)
Natasha Bedingfield
KT Tunstall
Gwen Stefani solo
Cheyenne Kimball
Dirtie Blonde (close to the great)
Alexz Johnson
Hope Partlow (great voice, and already some excellent songs)
Joanna (solid debut, but she can do way better)

The ok

Sarah Hudson (does have one great song - "Girl On The Verge")
Aly & AJ
Sandi Thom
Britney Spears (some nice guilty pleasures)
Christina Aguilera
Nikki Cleary
Rachel Farris (music pretty good, voice not so good)
Ana Johnsson
Lindsay Lohan (her first album was a bit better than her second)
Kristy Frank
Hoku (her self-titled CD had some good songs, but too much filler. Has potential.)
Jessie Daniels (Christian Avril; not as talented)
Smoosh (they are still growing)

The bad

1. I edited in a few more artists

For those who missed them. Will note new edits.

2. Eh.. Might as well put Saving Jane in great after all

3. Where's Deborah Harry?

You got a great list there. I agree with most of your choices, but where is Deborah Harry/Blondie? :shrug:

[mvd]

4. I was thinking of a strict pop/rock definition

But yes, if we included 80s rock, Deborah Harry and Blondie would be in the great category! So would The Bangles and Go Gos.

If Rilo Kiley is pop/rock, they would also be great for sure.

5. You really have great taste in female singers.

Do you like the B52's too?

6. I do love them, in fact!

I'll be expanding my list - this was just a start.
