On the ninth day of Christmas my true love gave to me nine ladies dancing. It's ladies night, well, week, as we celebrate our favourite female artists and all-girl bands. Double points if the song is also about the fairer sex. There could be some repetition here with previous weeks as well as some new songs.
Some starters from your host...
You are the Problem here - First Aid Kit The Swedish sisters get justifiably angry
Beautiful Collision - Bic Runga
Avant Gardener - Courtney Barnett
Chaise Longue- Wet Leg
My Baby Just Cares for Me - Nina Simone

I'll start my investment in this thread with what should have been the opening theme to the 007 movie 'Tomorrow Never Dies'.
Whoever it was that picked Sheryl Crow's effort over this superb performance from K.D.Lang really needs to give their heads a wobble, as this song is just pure Bond:

I'll follow that with this one from The Bangles. Susanna Hoffs is just.....sigh.

This song was inspired by the cover of Horses.
KT Tunstall was wondering what she wanted to do with her life. She saw Patti Smith on that album cover (well, her face is a map of the world, is a map of the world you can see she's a beautiful girl, she's a beautiful girl) and...suddenly I see, this is what I wanna be...

I just had to include this one...
The greatest female vocalist of all time? I'd say so...
Next up, that other song by the utterly amazing Little Miss Dynamite has become something of a cliché at this time of year, so I'll plump for this classic from her instead:

I was trying to decide which was the best era of Annie's and then choose a song from it, then I thought of this video which pretty much covers all of 'em - the song ain't too shabby either!

Talking of Annie, this feels like a 3 pointer.
