Nana Mouskouri? Not my style but her popularity and record sales over a long period of time surely count for something. She's also recorded songs in over 8 different languages, no mean feat!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nana_Mouskouri
| Quote: | | Nana Mouskouri (born Ioanna Mouskouri on October 13, 1934, at 5 AM, in Chania, Crete, Greece) is a singer of Greek origin who over four decades has forged a highly successful international career. She was known as Nana to her friends and family as a child. She recorded many of her songs in many different languages, including Greek, French, English, Spanish, Italian, German, Latin, and Portuguese among others. She is noted for her trademark squarish black-rimmed eyeglasses and straight black hair parted in the middle, and her songs of melancholy, longing, and sentimental musings upon love, for which the emotion of her voice is exceptionally suited. Mouskouri has recorded from the 1960s into the new millennium. She has tailored releases to specific international markets with tremendous success. |

I'm surprised Carole King hasn't rated a mention either

| If i had to vote for one of those singers i'd have to vote for Barbra.For pure technique and vocal purity you couldn't go past Babs. |

I lost all respect for Babs after her appearance in South Park.
