One of my husband's favorite performers is a New Zealand singer named Hayley Westenra. The music is not always to my liking, but I have to agree that she has an incredibly beautiful voice.
Here is a clip of Hayley doing Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights."

Horrible, screechy, grating voice.

Not bad. Her voice is kinda willowy for my taste. I love her Aussie accent though.

O Mio Babbino Caro may be one of my top five favorite sounds of all time and Hayley does a version I've found here:

I prefer Anna Netrebko's version more. I love Anna's voice.

And I prefer, if listening and watching Opera, to have Milla Jovovich involved.

One of my favorite movies....... ever.

Damn, I agree, kinda scary.

Nanci sings one of my favorites.

'You're out there running just to be on the run'

Guess I am a fan of Americana, my first car was a Chevy my last will be one too.

Not audio commentaries. You ever heard the commentary for Resident Evil? Good Lord!

Nope. Does she have a cackle laugh or something?
