Cold, wet weather.
Has to be the late, great Waylon Jennings. Wonderful voice....good guitarist too. He sadly died from complications linked to his diabetes.

Country singer Alison Krauss. ..especially when in collaboration with the band union station .
Yes; she's brilliant. I am not a great fan of country/bluegrass music but her voice is amazing: I even have one of her albums with Union Station (Paper Airplane).

I'm not sure I can single out one vocalist, but people like Guy Garvey, John Martyn (RIP) and Elvis Costello are also high on my list. And the late, great Kirsty MacColl.

Nothing to do with her stunning blonde hair or her ice blue eyes or her sultry Swedish accent and her perfectly proportioned bottom (she does have a very good melodic voice) but I think in her heyday Agnetha Faltskog the gorgeous blonde from Abba

Lera Lynn / Fiona Apple two genius artists if you ask me they both have everything and just like us diabetics they are different from everyone else so hard to describe there style but it's safe to say it's dark powerful music very extreme underlying happiness they write and sing for themselves rather than for money and are both very gracious

Favourite singer and entertainer has to be Freddie Mercury. That man could belt out a song and had amazing stage presence. Miss that man.
