Lisa Stansfield
Teena Marie
George Michael
Anastacia
Mick Hucknall (Simply Red)
Remy Shand
etc...

as "blue-eyed" his "fonk" (N'awlins spelling) is as real as the storms of '02.

1) Teena Marie (love her even more after seeing her over the weekend at the Soul Festival. She tore it up, and left us wanting more)
2) Bobby Caldwell (What you won't do, do for love is such a classic and he has other great songs)
3) Boz Scaggs
4) Hall & Oates
5) Taylor Dayne (I don't know if she was ever referred to as such, but she sounds soulful to me)
6) Nikka Costa
7) Michael McDonald
8 Robert Palmer
9) Steve Winwood
10)Dusty Springfield
11)The Righteous Brothers
12)The Bee Gees
13)Boy George

YES!!! Annie Lennox, can't forget her. I'll never forget being at my grandparents house when "Would I Lie to You" video came on, and when she heard her voice, she commented on how she sounded like a black woman. She had me ROTFL!

Ahhh but Annie didn't do too bad hanging with Aretah Franklin on the anthemic "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves". No doubt Teena Marie coudla fit right in with 'em...in any neighborhood. Another case of not being sure why one has to choose between liking different artists who are equally legit.
