Blurring the EdgesBlurring the Edges by Meredith Brooks

You'll all know the song 'B*tch' why not have a taster at Ms Brooks other songs. I think they will quickly get stuck in your head.

Alex Parks the spiky haired les we all love to hear. Shame she seems to have dissapeared.
Something To RememberSomething To Remember by Madonna

The queen of pop Madonna. I've loved her through her ups and downs but this album has always been close to me.

I know not everyone likes 'best of' albums but this is a great way to experience Sheryl over her musical years.
The HushThe Hush by Texas

They may be a complete band but Sharleen Spiteri is the front woman, and what a front woman she makes. A brilliant album.
Try ThisTry This by Pink
Buy new: £20.49 / Used from: £4.77
Love her or hate her. Shes bold, shes American and she ranges from rock to modern RnB to extreme pop. But she has attitude and Pink can create brilliant songs when she's incharge of the show.
Texas Campfire TakesTexas Campfire Takes by Michelle Shocked

Edie Brickell and her new bohemians are excellent on this album. Interesting thoughtful songs with great lyrics.

Don't presume Billie Myers is a one hit wonder with her song 'Rain'. This album really shows how much more she can do.
AnastaciaAnastacia by Anastacia

Under The PinkUnder The Pink by Tori Amos

Tori Amos has been singing to us for a long time. Her soft melodys mixed with imaginative words keep her albums flowing.
Left of the MiddleLeft of the Middle by Natalie Imbruglia
Buy new: £3.48 / Used from: £0.01
Tiny Australian Natalie is big in music, and rightly deserves to be. She has some catchy songs but they do have meaning. This album is her first and she does herself proud.
FreedomFreedom by Melissa Ferrick

I've only recently discovered Melissa. Her songs are very real and her voice makes the whole cd a very intimate experience.
