Morwen - can't say this often enough. What we think doesn't matter. Some people will like your singing, some won't. That's what this business is like. there really is no right and wrong - no absolutes.

Do what YOU feel good with. If someone suggests a change listen - but not too soon. Make sure you have fulfilled YOUR vision, and you won't find that til you've done it more than a few times.

When you have done what YOU want. then the critics get second dibs at helping you. Don't let them piss on your chips before you start eating.

Whatever anybody else says - they won't care as much as you obviously do. Steer by your own lights initially.
