 | Music by Mika Nakashima
Buy used from: $77.49 A Japanese artist with one of the most beautiful singing voices I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. I'm typically not a fan of music whose lyrics I can't understand, but Mika takes the cake (and the frosting, and the ice cream on the side).

 | The Remix Album: Diamonds Are Forever by Shirley Bassey
Buy used from: $3.05 Most of these remixes are excellent new accompaniments to Ms. Bassey's great vocals.

 | Begin to Hope by Regina Spektor
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $8.20 |
 | Modified by Save Ferris
Buy used from: $1.50 Okay, before you groan and dismiss Save Ferris as the "Come On Eileen" band from the 90's, try sampling some their (much) less popular but more musically solid second outing. Their lead vocalist, Monique Powell, is really quite a good singer and really handles the slow numbers well.

 | Dat Type of Gurl by Rasheeda
Buy new: $16.98 / Used from: $7.99 Okay, so I had to include something ridiculous in this list. A marked departure from the rest of the list, but I enjoy Resheeda for her laid-back phrasing in her rhymes - a nice departure from most other female MCs out there.
