harvey andrews | Shirley Collins - can she sing? (196* d) | RE: Shirley Collins - can she sing? | 07 Feb 04 |
I think the problem isn't with Shirley, but with some of the young female singers who have followed in her wake. The flat, unemotional, little girl voice of these English female singers I find as unappetizing as the over the top, ersatz emotion of the pop divas. There's a middle ground where the voice not only sings the notes but sings the story, adding colour, emphasis and emotion where needed, without exaggeration. |
