Hi How about Bonnie Tyler, I notice people claim on P2P mistake of "Total Eclipes of the heart"and "It's a Heartache" and Kim Carnes .Paulette Carlson from country group Highway 101 in the 1990's. I almost died when I herd Paulette on country radio I though she was Stevie. also she looks like her too.

Yeah, but the vocal Lucinda won the Grammy for was divine.

Has anyone heard Gwyneth Paltrow's cover of Bette Davis Eyes? I'm ashamed to admit that I really like it.

That's how I first heard the song and I like Gwen's version better! Who knew she could sing?

The whole Duets soundtrack is pretty darn good...

I'll never forget when she wore that horrid dress, and went braless, to the Oscars and Joan Rivers said she looked like she had chicken cutlets for breasts.

When Joan hits a good one, she hits it hard. I also love the name Fishstick, which I first read in a Camille Paglia article on Salon.

I'm sorry.

I truly can't stand her, but I think she has a pretty, though limited, voice.

That's what she can name her next little Martin spawn, Cutlet. I love it.

I was just going to say that if she breeds a little more, she'll have all the ingredients needed for a three course meal. Mama Blythe would be proud, I'm sure of it.

I think he did work with Kim on something else. Off the top of my head I can't remember what it was, but I think they have done other things. Anybody?

It's not the first time I've heard Kim Carnes compared to Stevie. I don't hear it. To me, she's much closer in voice and style to Bonnie Tyler (think: "It's A Heartache").

BTW, I love Bette Davis Eyes and It's A Heartache (in fact, when I first heard If You Ever Did Believe, I thought it sounded like It's a Heartache, when Stevie says "have you forgotten meee-eee.."). I just don't think either Kim or Bonnie sounds like Stevie.
