I'm not sure if Brooke Valentine's trying to be sexy, and I don't think Lizzy Mercier Descloux is actively trying to be sexy at all, but i think they are.

Actually, that should be it's own thread, considering that I think that way about Vanessa Briscoe of Pylon, Kristin Hersh of Throwing Muses, and Marianne Faithfull. I seem to love ladies whose vocals alone sound like they could rip my head off.

Ooh, Betty Davis is an EXCELLENT call.

Dusty, "Breakfast in Bed," that's pretty damned sexy. Lee Wiley, on her '50s albums, nice creaky sexy.

Nobody's mentioned Neko Case yet? I find this hard to believe.

― JAS, Wednesday, 27 April 2005 01:06 (twenty years ago)

Actually, for a while I wished Chrissie was a man, especially when she growls and croons all over the first three Pretenders album better than Broose has done his whole career.

― Alfred Soto (Alfred Soto), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 01:10 (twenty years ago)

Yes, Tammy Wynetter and Dusty Springfield. Also, occasionally, Olivia Newton-John and Ella.

― Burr (Burr), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 01:14 (twenty years ago)

I saw the Pretenders a long time ago, in their classic lineup, and as Derek and Clive say, got the horn from her crooning...

Am I the only one who thinks Siouxsie actually got hotter as she aged?

I was thinking that yesterday when I was trying to find the images of her that my parents had as posters in their room when I was little. She could definitely have moments of gorgeousness when she was young but deidre's post of that image of her makes my jaw plop open every time I look at it.

You're not the only one. Especially when she started wearing pinstripe suits onstage.

― Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Wednesday, 27 April 2005 15:20 (twenty years ago)

I've said this before, but doesn't M.I.A. sound like Siouxsie?

Oh man that Mirah bathtub picture is as good as the Neko bathtub one.
