There's an indie rock band from Ohio called Saving Jane. The lead singer kinda has a Stevie edge to her.

Stevie is unique and one in a million:nod: :) :)

The only person I have seen that I thought was unique and different like Stevie is Andrea Corr. She has a great voice and a presence about her. I also like Aimee Lee. I am a older person (over 40:eek: ) but I saw her on tv a few times and she was cute like Stevie in how she dresses and can sing pretty good.

Thanks, Amber;) I have always been horrible at Math:( Let's just say Stevie is a very unique lady and singer:nod:

I am so happy because my hubby bought a Stevie necklace for me:blob1: Guess that means I have to be nice to him:lol:

I would say Sarah McLachlan has a Stevie feel to her for my purposes.:nod:

I would have to agree. Lyrically. I also think they compose the same way.

omg u stole my response! hahah i was gonna say that, i would also say that Gwen Steffani ( spelling??) is alot like stevie, original, hot, creative, but i think the biggest thing is the fact that used to date a band member of no doubt (ala fleetwood mac w/ lindsey) and she has since became a solo artist (alot like you know who), back to Sarah, the only reason i would say she isnt quite like stevie, sarah seems to dwell in a depressing sad area, where stevie is all about dealing with stuff and getting through.

You know, when I first read this thread, I thought, I don't know, nobody these days seems to really be following the Stevie model, no matter you define it, but I think Gwen Stefani is a really good answer. They have followed somewhat similar career paths. Gwen's even "guest starred" on some other folks' singles as Stevie used to do back in the day. The main difference, though, being that Gwen is certainly much more adventurous when it comes to broadening her musical palette and trying new things.

I don't think anyone is like Stevie. No one that I can think of has the combination of a distinctive voice, unique songwriting, a consistent "look", and a trademark stage move (i.e., the "spin"). Nor do they have the aura/mystique that Stevie had for so many years.

Gwen Stefani is an interesting answer to the question, but I think she changes her style too much to be much of a comparison. That seems to be the way for most female artists, they feel the need to reinvent themselves constantly.

Yeah, what's the deal with that? I wish they'd just pick ten songs out of their catalogue, and stick to performing those every night for the next twenty years.

Joss Stone definately has a "young" Stevie feel to her. Her clothes, her hair, her voice is alittle raspy, she even has the scarf on the mic stand!

Now, I don't know who all these people are, but I looked at this picture of Joss Stone. I have to say, she is one sorry-looking bum. She looks as if SHE were the one hanging out at the laundromat in "Docklands." Maybe I'm just nostalgic or naive, but I never thought Stevie went for that dog's-dinner look back when she was Stone's age.

Hey! "Stone's age," get it?! :]

Nice scarf on the mic stand, though. Although Steven Tyler's been doing that in Aerosmith for decades.

Stevie's style (or what's left of it) is really one of a kind, I think -- which doesn't make it "better" or even worth keeping. It just makes it ... one of a kind!

Joss has a beautiful voice, you should check her out some time. It was actually a compliment to Stevie. Other then the exposed midriff, I'd say the 70's hippie look is right on.

You call it dog's dinner, I call it bohemian gypsy.

I'm still recovering from her duet for Divas Live with Debbie on "One Way Or Another." She hit some notes that had not yet been discovered by the human ear. And I almost ralphed when she pranced around onstage BAREFOOT and in that "I'll-wear-dishrags-and-call-it-personal-style" get-up, shouting "I know where you park your car, I know your phone number, I know your mother's number, I even know your social secutiy numbah! Gonna gitcha! One way, baby!" Oy vey. 'Twas my first real exposure to La Stone and it didn't whet my appetite for more. Then I saw her on the Brit Awards with Robbie Williams and I sat in utter amazement, wondering if she knew what "pitch" is.

^ The girl can sing. I guess I like her because of her raspy voice, after all that's what first caught my attention with Stevie. Joss's first cd, "The Soul Sessions" is awesome, give it a listen before you judge. Live performances are not always the greatest, as we know from Stevie. I guess I'm just more open minded and easier to please when it comes to music. The question was "What female artist today would you think is most like Stevie??????????", I was mostly comparing style and just giving my opinion.

I like Joss, I've played her videos at Omega. Super Duper and You Had Me are great. I think it is the video for Got A Right To Be Wrong where she is wearing the Stevie esq shawl. All in all, Joss Stone is pretty cool.

Travis :cool:

Easy to please, maybe, but I wouldn't go calling people less open-minded than you just because they don't like a particular artist that you like. That's, well, not very open-minded.
