Her voice is a cross between Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas and the Gareth Gates Bo Selecta character. Like nails down a blackboard. Who the fuck buys this shit?

MrsMoon on Tue 06 May 2008 said... She's a big girl, so what? I just can't stand all these producers, on the back of Amy Winehouse's success getting these girls to make blues 'lite' records, and people buy it because it reminds them of something they know, which is infinately better...Buy fucking Billie Holiiday, Dinah Washington or Bessie Smith you bunch of pussies...they are the real thing...not this platic stuff.
MrsMoon on Tue 06 May 2008 said... 'plastic'....when the red mist descends, i forget how to spell...forgive, spelling police!

SaleoftheCentury on Tue 06 May 2008 said... I agree with you up to a point Mrs Moon and I guess it was the same when I was 'growing up' in that I used to hear something and then be curious enough to investigate the influences, or if it were a 'cover' go and look up the original and you can only hope that the same rules apply nowadays. It would also appear that they do because the people that you have mentioned, still sell records.It seems to me, if you read stuff that was being written at the time, the same accusations about songs being derivative was as valid then as it is now.
VengefulJesus on Tue 06 May 2008 said... Well everyone takes their influences from somewhere and are bound to reflect them in their music which is fine as long as they take positive elements from them and fuse them with something of themselves that creates an oringional or interesting finished product. Not that I know much about the origins or history of soul music but a quick listen to some Billie Holliday tunes has highlighted the yawning chasm of talent between her and Adele who seems to be just a by-the-numbers, churn' em out, nasal whinge merchant.
SaleoftheCentury on Tue 06 May 2008 said... I don't know this Adele person, but I do know Billie Holiday a little and her talent was in her vocals, she wrote very few (if any) of her own.

CarlyBunny on Sun 11 May 2008 said... I hate Adele. Not because she is fat. But because she thinks she is fucking wonderful, and her songs are shit. Especially the pavemnets one. It is the same fucking words over and oer again, and she can't fucking sing either.
