      Rolling in the Deep isn't really difficult, it's actually easy for many singers to imitate. The same with Listen by Beyonce. Chandelier is pretty difficult, though. All By Myself is really difficult. I Will Always Love you is difficult because no one is able to imitate Whitney Houston's vocal tone. The most difficult song for actual singers would probably be Mariah Carey's version of Oh Holy Night which is not on this list.

    "I Have Nothing" by Whitney Houston (in her key and that modulation in the final chorus) has to be one of the most difficult songs for women to sing. When "I Have Nothing" debuted in 1993, Alan Jones from Music Week described it as "an emotionally charged rollercoaster of a song". Indeed.

    Mariah Carey being #1 as she should! It’s not just that she masters the whistle register but it’s the fact that her range is so vast, her lows are so full and rich while her tone, transitions, agility and musicality are so utterly impeccable. That woman is an absolute wonder and she deserves a hell of a lot more recognition these days for the immense talent that she is. Also her catalogue could easily fill this entire list, hell it could fill a list of 100 most difficult songs.

      @Zion Whitney has a power to her voice that is unique, and Celine has a clear almost laser sharp tone that sets her apart. Mariah on the other hand IS the more agile singer (or was), the effortless transitions and melismatic style is simply outstanding as well as the crazy range.

My teachers would strangle me if I tried to pull that. And it just sounds awful. A little throatiness can be nice for effect, and she did that in her early career. But she got lost in her own stylisations somewhere along the line. And it's all throat, all the time.

    As a fan of Adele I don’t find many of her songs to be “difficult” to sing but she sings from such an honest place it’s hard to duplicate the emotions. Any song by Aretha,Mariah, Whitney, or Celine should just be out of the question. Honorable mentions are definitely Beyonce, Brandy, any Clark Sister (if we are going to other genres), Billie Holiday, and many Broadway singers. Of course Jennifer Holiday but also the woman who originally sang Memory from CATS…that song is vocal suicide.

    I think we need to note that just because a song is in a high key doesn’t equate to it being difficult. For example people like Toni, Brandy, Anita, Ella Fitzgerald, and many other female vocalist who tend to stay in the “alto/tenor” are also very difficult. Mariah Carey who has exceptional range made a song called ‘Melt Away’ and the verses are incredibly low for a female. Certainly not easy to reach for those mid-to-low range kind of notes.

    Let say Adele’s and Sia’s songs are not as difficult technically to sing but the way how they did it is notable. It is an art to turn a song into iconic hit.
    Mariah is number one - no question 🌈

      I think because their voices & the way they sing are unique and perfect for the songs, so other singers are unable to produce the same effect

      Not Candyman, the hard part is the long note but that's it
      Many others by her have more difficult dynamics

    Great list! Loved seeing Kate Bush on the list. Would have loved to have seen Florence Welch from Florence + the Machine on this list! "Howl", "No Light, No Light" and "Ship to Wreck" are all tough songs. Also, Heart's "Alone" should have been an honorable mention.

      I always think of Only For A Night by Florence, that hiiiiigh chorus :'( And Girl With One Eye (not just because of the range, but also the grit and attitude you need to sing it)

    Kudos to these hyper talented women and you know I can't think of comparable male singers so this should just be 10 most difficult songs
