She is not a good singer, she is a great singer and with proper lessons and training she is going to be an exceptional singer making millions of dollars a year and performing all over the world.

I read that she has had voice lessons in the past. Also, I think the reason people are talking about her voice range on the lower end of the scale is because you can’t hear her that well at times during the video. Perhaps her projection can be improved. The audience was very loud at times. :~)

This person obviously has heard her rendition of Cry Me a River.

Rob Leigh and others of same ilk should be required to check out the “Twilght Zone” episode where the normal people actually were ugly by our”standards”. Ugly is shown more in some peoples actions than their looks. Example:Plastic Pelosi.
Never mind poor example!

That type of reaction where the “professionals” heap criticism happens in all fields, seems to me.

If a non-scientist discovers something, the “real” scientists often fall over themselves trying to explain why the thing discovered is just not all that new or exciting.

Alot of these folks try to prove their intrinsic knowledge by inventing nuances that in truth, nobody except them and their smug ilk even give a damn about.

All one need do is listen to her.
Is she a good singer? Absolutely.
Is she a great singer? Certainly.
Is she world class? I think so, but that’s my opinion.

Anybody who doesn’t see it is really not being very honest.

Put a bag over her head and let her sing. I’m waiting to hear her sing another song, or a different type of song, before I decide. I did enjoy the youtube clip, and was touched by her voice and the response.

I see this happen on YouTube all the time—mostly to professional singers and musicians—people that do outstanding work, but someone comes along and says their voices suck or their music is for the untrained masses.

Most “singing” nowadays is heavily dubbed and edited.

She let slip that her next song is going to be Whistle Up The Wind.

Personally I would love to hear her sing Stormy Weather.

On an interview wit Fox & FRiends she told the host that she had music lessons once a week for several years when she was in her 50's.

She also said that although she was pleased with her performance she can do better.

I was just singing in the car with the windows down. Base on the looks I got, I can confirm that she is a better singer than I. So she’s got that going for her.

That is odd, since she is only 47 now.
