10 Essential Blue-Eyed Soul Singers

Wednesday June 20, 2007
Blue-Eyed Soul made a big comeback in the first half of 2007, thanks to new releases by singers like Joss Stone, Robin Thicke and Amy Winehouse. For those not familiar with the term, "Blue-Eyed Soul" is an expression that was created in the 1960s to describe white singers with "black" voices who sing R&B and Soul music. Despite the expression, not all "Blue-Eyed Soul" artists actually have blue eyes. (Although some, like Jon B. and Justin Timberlake, definitely do.) And with that in mind, click here to check out your Guide to R&B's list of recommended modern-day Blue-Eyed Soul singers.
