Remy Shand and Thicke, fa sho!

Also, I think her name was Taylor Dane? She wasn't "soulful" per se, but she had a powerful voice.

Two words. . .TEENA MARIE.

I also like Michael McDonald, Taylor Dane and JT, but they have nothing on my girl.

Wow, how could I forget Teena Marie and Hall and Oates!

I liked Simply Red, George Michael, Madonna and currently feeling Justin Timberlake.

Oh, and I can't forget New Kids on the Block.

Word on Taylor Dayne. Her song "Love Will Lead You Back" still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end, and makes me get all teary eyed.

He doesn't have blue eyes, but Toshi Kubota is a fantastic singer.. you'd never know (1) he's Japanese and (2) English isn't his native language. I also like old school Hall & Oates (Sara Smile is one of the best songs EVER).

Justin is cute.. just looking at him makes me want to take him and.. well, I'd better not say.

He's really matured as a singer, too.

For the last few months, I couldn't keep Steely Dan's greatest hits out of my CD player. "F.M. (No Static at All)" is a classic, as are "Do It Again" and "Peg," and "Hey 19" is da bomb!

I don't know if they count, but I have just about everything recorded by Swing Out Sister. The "It's Better to Travel" CD (circa mid-1980's) is a great relaxer ... Breakout ... Twilight World ... Surrender.

JON B. He is so down, most of us forget he's white. Also, I love me some Justin Timberlake

She passed away a couple of years ago, right?

I'm sure there are those who don't know who this person is. Dusty was from England. I don't remember any songs, but I know she was from England.

She isn't that short lady that sang with Culture Club on "Church of the Poison Mind?" Who was she? She had the soulful thing going on.

Since we are speaking of the Brits, Lisa Stansfield was my GIRL! "Been around the world and I-I-I...I can't find my baby..."

Dusty Springfield sang:
I Only Want To Be With You
Son of a Preacher Man
You Don't Have To Say You Love Me
What Have I Done To Deserve This with the Pet Shop Boys

Her most highly regarded album is Dusty In Memphis.

She was born in London in 1939 and died in March 1999. Here is a website about her. http://www.dustyspringfield.co.uk/

Teena Maria is my favorite of all time.
Philly's own Hall & Oates
I'm feeling me some Remy shand and Justin Timberlake of the new breed, and don't forget my man Jon B.

Teena Marie is my favorite too. I saw her in concert for the first time last summer in DC. I think I cried through half the show...LOL She is a tiny little lady!!

Jon B. / Hall & Oats also make my list.

Celine Dion is the only one I can think of right now.
