Without auto-tune and backing tracks she sounds like s#%t.
Her first three albums were outstanding pop music. I don’t think they needed autotune back then.
They did need autotune after she went full whore in the mid 1990s. What a complete waste of talent. Had she been born fifty years earlier, she’d be up there among the greats. Instead, she’s going to be a joke footnote in the entertainment history books.
