Difficult to choose from. So many different good singrs, and so many styles. Personal preference also comes into the equation. Will say Dusty Springfield from the list, with Amy running very close. People should check out Laura Marling on myspace too.

Correction: the track is called Mrs Bartolozzi, but a washing machine is heavily featured. 
I haven't heard much of her more recent stuff.But i loved 'The Kick Inside'.Think that was the name of the album.I also loved 'This Womans Work'.Didn't they use that recently in a childrens charity commercial?.Such a sad song. |

I don't know... To be honest, it's my husband who's a big fan. I just fell in love with Wuthering Heights.  |

I love Amy Winehouse I think she's a great British talent, but she seems to be a flawed genius. Old school I think Kate Bush was and is still amazing.

I love her accent.Isn't she from Wiltshire?.She's a real enigma,hiding away for years etc.Wuthering Heights is her best song ever. |

More on Kate Bush: I love al her albums in particular "The red shoes" absolutely brilliant! I don't think any of the singers have come close to her enormous talent or beauty.

Dusty for sure - love Annie as a performer and really like her voice but Dusty is like no one else.

I know her Mum was Irish, Kate has a very strong connection still with Irish folk music |

That would account for her brother called Paddy!.I'm sure he used to produce her records or something like that.Didn't she write 'The Man With The Child In His Eyes' when she was only 14 or 15?.She's up there with Queen,Bowie,etc in my eyes.I can't get into her newer stuff though,hate to say. |

Paddy was in her band (he played digeridoo and other instruments), John Carder Bush, her other brother, took the photographs that were used on her album covers. It was rumoured that Kate had written over 200 songs while she was still at school, including most of the tracks that were used on 'The Kick Inside'. |

Hi Gouryella, yes there is a greatest hits its called 'The Whole Story' it came out in '86. If you like 'Wuthering Heights' I would recommend 'The Kick Inside', though my favourite album is 'The Hounds of Love' |

Kate Bush for me,the voice of an Angel on helium and she wrote and produced her own material.
Every album she made is worth checking out.
