Who sounds like Sara Bareilles but doesn't sing about complete rubbish?

are you looking for just female singers? or male as well?

Never heard of this Bareilles before but I took a quick listen and I see what you mean – this was cranked out factory style.

I always refer people who want to check out a great female singer with substance to Sarah McLachlan. In particular I recommend one of her earlier recordings “Fumbling Towards Ecstasy”.

Sandi Thom , Kate Nash , I second Sarah McLachlan, Rilo Kiley .. Let me know if any of those were what you were looking for.

it’s not ‘manufactured’ considering her songs are written and composed by HER, and no one else. No one sounds like her, she’s unique. Your an idiot.

a bunch of other chicks :)
