Celine Dion?????????????

How about:
Jo Stafford
Dinah Washington
Ella Fitzgerald
Jane Monheit
Julie London
Heck, I'd take Alberta Hunter over Celine Dion!

I was going to say Jane Monheit as well but I am a little biased. She’s married to my cousin. LOL. Real sweet girl though.

Agreed 100%. But before I could ever go along with meidocrities like Celine Dione and Pat Benatar and Christina Aguilera, at the top of my list I’d wanta see Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughn, Carmen McRae, Nancy Wilson, June Christie, Chris Conner, Anita O’Day, Dinah Shore, Edye Gormet, Rosemary Clooney, Peggy Lee, Susannah McCorkle, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, Patty Loveless — and probably a few others if my memory weren’t so bad!
