I can think of only two Dido, and Frou Frou from mainstream music. Loads from Progressive trance..
Any songs/artist that you know of ?
 
Sinead O Conner - "Nothing Compares To You". and many more..

You should also try Mazzy Star. The album "So Tonight That I Might See" is great.
 
joan baez, janis joplin, marianne faithfull, aretha franklin, pat benatar :D...not exactly mesmerising...grt vocals for sure!
 
Hehe I listen to lots of rock with female vocals... the ones that come immediately to my mind are Cristina Scabbia (Lacuna Coil), Sharon Del Aden (Within Temptation), Tarja Turunen (Nightwish), Floor Jansen (After Forever), Anneke van Giersbergen (The Gathering). Of slightly oldie stuff, I love Karen Carpenter's voice and also Lindsey Buckingham (Fleetwood Mac).

^^Awesome stuff. I like Ella Fitzergerald as well.

@stormblast... LOL haven't heard the new song so can't comment :P but "Swamped" and "When a Dead Man Walks" are amazing songs.
 
Aimee Mann has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard. If you're into Electronic, Air features a female singer in many of their songs, especially in the album Moon Safari. Man I wish my girlfriend could sing like that, no better turn on than that ;)

^^ Aimee mann which band is she from. I am looking at some non rock songs
Aimee Mann is non-rock, her stuff is more jazzy. She did the entire soundtrack for the movie Magnolia for instance. Check out One, Save Me or Wise Up - mon favourités. Here's her Wiki.
