Karen O of the yeah yeah yeahs for sure
Another old-time fav; albeit, more folky than rock: Marianne Fathfull.
Certainly, worth a mention.
Didn't Mick hit that?
Yes he did. The song "You Can't Always Get What You Want" was a song about their love affair and her heroin addiction.
Siouxsie Sioux
Kate Bush
Nancy Wilson (way hotter than Ann, AND played guitar)
Wendy O'Williams
Lita Ford
Debby Harry
Chrissy Hynde
Stevie Nicks
Joan Jett
Tina Weymouth
...all these women (and many others I cannot remember at the moment) all were part of my R&R Fantasy in the late 70s and 80s.
Allison Mossheart is my current muse. That lady has an awesome rock voice.

I met them both when I was in college-Ann was way hotter than Nancy then-Nancy's what you'd call good from afar, but far from good....Quote:
Nancy Wilson (way hotter than Ann, AND played guitar)
What about that Evanescence singer? I kinda like her stuff. She doesn't suck to look at or listen to.
I love the Talking Heads, but Tina Weymouth? Really?
Ann and Nancy are still killin' it on the road. Heart is playing at EMP in March to record and play songs from their new album.Quote:

I think that Sandra Nasic from Guano Apes is the best rock singer!
Another vote for Stevie Nicks. Kim Deal from the Pixies/Breeders. Kim Gordon from Sonic Youth.
didn't hurt her voiceQuote:

True...but thay now have to reinforce the stage.Quote:

Marianne Faithfull (the album "Blazing Away" would dispel any notion that she's a "folkie")
Continuing the punk rock girl song theme
Fuck yeah, glad to see I'm not alone...Quote:

Also loving Lizzie Hale of Halestorm, fucking unbelievable pipes.
Nancy Wilson is all-time.
And fuckin' Fergie is rockin' hard with Slash these days, belting out some G'nR and some Heart tunes as well, FKNA.
Speaking of Nightwish they are touring the US in 2018. Guys, you want to see a woman rock, watch the entire concert the below clip comes from. Floor is the Goddess of metal.Quote:

How about some blues rockers?

This extensive list would not be complete without including all of The Runaways. A bigger omission is Suzi Quatro, a Detroit rocker who made it bigger across the pond. I am not a rock historian but I believe her look and tough girl attitude influenced Ms Jett.
Carrie Brownstein, Corin Tucker and Janet Weiss from Sleater-Kinney

Kathleen Hannah et al from Bikini Kill

How has no one put Storm Large out there? If you e lived in Portland you should be ashamed of yourself if you haven’t caught a live show.
Great clips from Rockstar Supernova on you tube. Still can’t even imagine they picked that little pile of no talent shit over her.

Cat Power. Rocker may be arguable but she's definitely a rock star. And usually gorgeous.

Florence Welch. Ridiculous pipes.

Love Cat Powers. Love that song.
How about Donita Sparks and her pals
