I second Janine LaMana! She was listed in Time Out New York this week as "Worst Abuse of a Bright Young Talent" for what they did to her in The Look of Love.

Yes folks, your choices are fine but before them all came the originals -- Ethel Merman and Mary Martin.

HAS to be top three (in order of whom I've known the longest):

Carole Shelley (theatrical goddess - period)
Judy Kaye
Carolee Carmello

Nydiva

I might have said this before and I will continue to say it again and again and again.

LINDA EDER
She is the one and only and forever will be love of my life when it comes to voices.

SUTTON FOSTER

Even though I have only seen her as Millie, I look forward to seeing her in other roles. I think she's the greatest, as a dancer, a comedic actress, and she has the pretiest voice I ever heard.
There, I've said it again.

Hank: Sutton was great as Eponine in Les Mis. I saw that LONG before i saw Millie!!

I wanted to add to my post, Rebecca Luker and Rachel York and Lauren Kennedy. They are fantastical and should have been on my other list!!
