    Judging your love of TFF and Pink Floyd I'm recommending Julian Cope's early stuff, Fried or the first Teardrop Explodes album (Kilimanjaro) but considering you love of the Chemical Brothers or The Prodigy you might want to check out Orbital.

    Listening to Drake, Sage Francis, Kanye West, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, The Sisters Of Mercy and The Cure.

    she's worth it, she's a cool lady and actually made Hip Hop listenable. More than that she's combined Funk,Synth, Blues and Jazz elements into her album and it really flows and tells a great story :) and i fuuuckin' love her style and voice.

    Think James Brown meets David Bowie in terms of style...it's THAT outrageous! :)

    Roisin Murphy
    Marina and the Diamonds
    Pixie Lott
    Britney Spears
    The Saturdays
    Sugababes
    Lady Gaga
    Goldfrapp
    Little Boots

    Nicki Minaj
    Jazmine Sullivan

    I'd deffo reccomend Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday. A brilliant album with great collabs from Eminem, Kanye, Drake, Natasha Bedingfield and more. But she's not just another rent-a-rapper who has to have a feature on every song, she does loads for herself too!

    From the mentions of The Cure, and The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, can I recommend you the previously mentioned Best Coast, and Frankie Rose And The Outs.

    I love the fact that all the other posts have ignored your list and are recommending songs to newer lists! :D

    OK, I'll be nice. I'll recommend you some artists. :)

    It seems you like the more inventive, edgy side of pop, so I think you'll definitely like Laurie Anderson. She's not new, though, and is on the experimental side of pop, but seeing as you like Florence and Janelle Monae, I think you'll definitely like her, but try her old stuff first like her Mister Heartbreak album.
    Also, as you like Marina, try Kate Bush-Hounds of Love and Running up the Hill.
    Cyndi Lauper, try her 'best of' album and her newer Bring ya to the Brink album (especially Into the Nightlife, Echo and Rocking Chair) for your Madonna and Kylie tendencies.
    Something new I suggest Clare Maguire and Sharon Van Etten (only heard Peace Signs but you could check out her album Epic).


    My list:
    Kid Sister
    Cyndi Lauper
    Suzanne Vega
    Lissie
    Hilary Duff
    Bjork
    Lucinda Williams
    Madonna
    Shakira
    Laurie Anderson

    As you said Lissie, may I suggest Grace Potter and the Nocturals, especially the song Tiny Light

    Love it.

    And thanks for your suggestions!
