The Top Ten
1 K.S. Chithra Krishnan Nair Shantakumari Chithra, often credited as K. S. Chithra or simply Chithra, is an Indian playback singer from Kerala. Chithra also sings Indian classical, devotional, and popular music.

She has such a distinct voice, tone and vocal style. Sometimes there are imperfections when she sings (hearing her voice crack) but that is what adds to her uniqueness and authenticity. Such transformation and growth over her career.

To understand how good she is you need to experience her in concert. She sings a wide range of songs . Something for everyone.There is not 1 other singer out there today capable of singing the range of songs she does as well as she does

Shes amazing, pretty, and has an amazing voice. I absolutely love her!

2 Jackie Evancho Jacqueline Marie "Jackie" Evancho is an American classical crossover singer who gained wide recognition at an early age. Since 2009, she has issued an EP and eight albums, including a platinum and gold album, and three Billboard 200 top 10 debuts. Evancho's latest album 'The Debut', was her eighth consecutive release to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Albums chart. In 2017, Evancho performed the U.S. national anthem at the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump and became the youngest person ever to perform a concert series at Café Carlyle.

Most people, especially younger listeners mistake stage performers as singers. When it comes to singing, Jackie Evancho is by far the real deal. No autotune, no dancer or pyrotechnic distractions, no artificial and manufactured pop star constructs. When you listen to Jackie sing, those goosebumps, shortness of breath, and emotional overload you experience comes from the phenomenal voice and emotion Jackie creates for her audiences. Jackie really is perfection personified.

She truly has a remarkable voice. I seen her perform close up at the Café Carlyle in NYC.She had just turn 17. As a young girl of 10 she had a sweet beautiful voice now as a young women her voice is fantastic! She also is a great entertainer, her stage presence is powerful,sincere. The voice crystal clear and bright.Sings classical and moves into pop quite easily. She has a great future. And deserves to be number 1.

To understand how good she is you need to experience her in concert. She sings a wide range of songs from Puccini arias to Pop songs. Something for everyone.There is not 1 other singer out there today capable of singing the range of songs she does as well as she does.

Not very few have a voice like Jackie. Her crystal clear bell like tone is one for the century!

She has been my favourite singer since I was 4. All her songs are inspiring and beautiful. I think she should be number 1. People find her voice and music trash but I don't. She's gorgeous from inside and outside. I would totally vote for her and want others to do that too.
