Songs By Awesome Aussie Female Singers, Vol. 2


As I mentioned yesterday, I've always had a strong affinity for Australian female singers. Indeed, many of my all-time favorite female singers hail from Down Under. Yesterday, I posted 20 songs by well-known and lesser-known Aussie ladies. But those weren't the only ones I wanted to post. So here's another 20. (There won't be a Volume 3.) Hope you'll enjoy these as much as or more than yesterday's batch.  ~  JH 




1)  Darlene Zschech  ~  "Hear Our Praises"




2)  Brighter Later  ~  "Come And Go"




3)  Missy Higgins  ~  "Everyone's Waiting"




4)  St. South  ~  "Slacks"




5)  Merril Bainbridge  ~  "Mouth"




6)  Natalie Bassingthwaighte  ~  "Someday Soon"




7)  Clare Bowditch  ~  "One Little River"




8)  Ella Hooper  ~  "Low High"




9)  Samantha Jade  ~  "Soldier"




10)  Kate Ceberano  ~  "Magnet"




11)  Orianthi  ~  "According To You"  (While she's not a bad singer by any means, Orianthi's true claim to fame is her incredible guitar-playing ability.)




12)  Jessica Mauboy  ~  "Never Be The Same"
