I generally don't like female singers (maybe I can't
relate to the subject matter...maybe I've gotten
yelled at by enough girlfriends that I don't need it
in my music too), but I generally have a huge
exception list. I know all, or even most, of these
wouldn't qualify for a power-pop list:

The Pretenders
Joan Jett
The Muffs (I think they are the definition of
power-pop...so there! The jangle-stuff usually bores
me)
Sam Phillips
Kelly Willis
Lucinda Williams
Kirsty MacColl
Shawn Colvin
Emmylou Harris
Blondie
Go-Go's & Side projects
Bangles & Side projects
Susan Cowsill
Michelle Anthony -

Aimee Mann
Camera Obscura
Cat Power
Testa Rosa - http://www.myspace.com/testarosamusic 
Feist
Julie Doiron
Kate Bush
Macy Gray
Mary Timony
Mavis Staples
Sharon Jones
Melanie
Neko Case
Patti Smith
Jenny Lewis/Rilo Kiley
Lauren Hill
Shivaree
Suzanne Vega
...and that chick from The Darkness :-)

That off the top of my head & off my computer, so I'm
sure I missed a bunch.

PS - What's the 2007 Year-End List deadline?
