    All the music contest “reality” show winners who try to show off by being loud or going up and down the scales with ridiculous flourishes should take a lesson.
    Perfect inflection, perfect emotion for all your songs. Subtly draws you in, sublime, charming, perfect.

    When the Beatles' future manager first saw them performing in Liverpool, he stayed till closing time. They were undisciplined, they ate on stage, they could be improved in a million ways. But he knew that he was seeing a historic group that could go all the way to the top.
    That's how I feel when I watch your videos.

      Slow songs like this are hard to do - tempo creep or vocal wander. She has a great sweet voice but did wander a bit along with her guitar playing. I liked this very much but from a musician perspective, that stood out for me and may explain some dislikes. She is a cute babe though - the red hair does it for me..
