Rumour reminded me of a mix of Karen Carpenter and Dusty Springfield.

I have to say, Karen Carpenter's voice was exquisite, like cut class.

There was just something really special about Karen's voice, I cant even put my finger on exactly what it is. Cut glass is a good description though.

Sinead O'Connor

Alison Moyet is also worthy consideration

Sineads voice hasn't aged well. I always preferred Dolores O'Riordans of the Irish singers though

There’s just something about female vocalists of the 60’s/70’s and earlier that was so classy and “perfect” voice wise. You just don’t hear those kinds of tones and vocal maturity enough anymore Yano? The majority of current chart topping women sound too similar imo. Karen Carpenter was just incredible.

I must say though if you like Karen, have you heard of Rumer? British singer who literally sounds just like Karen it’s scary.
