How did you discover Sharon den Adel ? Isn't she fantastic ! As you said, very gorgeous also. There are a few other Dutch songstresses , namely Simone Simons from Epica comes to mind. You'll find that a lot of the European goth symphonic metal groups are fronted by attractive women with great voices ! Sharon tops them all ! I have a DVD by Within Temptation in Concert called Black Symphony and it is fabulous.
I'm nearly 60 but enjoy all kinds of music from any era like yourself.

I just found her while surfing youtube for good music--I'm so tired of the trash that rules the airwaves in the US these days (I detest Katy Perry, Rhiana, Bruno Mars, etc., etc.) It's a shame we have to either listen to the oldies or go overseas to find good music these days.
I've listened to the others--Simone, Floor, etc...but none of them match Sharon. Even Tarja, who I also love, and has a great classical voice and might be a goddess straight out of the Kalevala, can't sing all the styles and genres Sharon can.
