I really really like Aco especially her old stuff from lady soul and nude. There's also Ai and Thelma Aoyama- love their voices :o

Try May'n. And if you're looking for song written by Kajiura Yuki, try FictionJunction since that group solely performs songs written by her.

Ikimonogakari's Yoshioka Kiyoe has such a great voice. One of my favorites, actually. Enough so I bought their first two major label albums: Sakura Saku Machi Monogatari and Life Album.

If you like to listen something more like r'n'b, reggae and so on, you should check Lecca. She's amazing and very talented - writes her own songs and lyrics.

Wow, so many new suggestions in this thread! :) Arigatou!

I like Aimer, Ai and Thelma Aoyama the most. Ricky, your suggestions are also pretty good. :)

Another singer I found recently on YouTube is Maki Nomiya. But I've got to say that so far, the songs I love the most come from Kalafina/FictionJunction. :) For example, this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TV_zKflcUk&feature=share&list=PL-cIahL6Wrw_0bIckbNRBNvJq9nfrRZrH Keiko's voice comes very close to being the exact definition of what I was looking for. <3

She hasn't been mentioned so I'll recommend Maki Chang, since her songs remind me of Adele.
