Thread Name: Why is a singer one of your favorites?
Subject: RE: Why is a singer one of your favorites?
Not my favourite but did anyone see Kerfuffle at Towersey? When she (Hannah?) sang that Norma Waterson song - i was compelely blown away! And she's not much older than me! It was incredible!

I love The Demon Barbers - partly for the great performance atmosphere.

I love the way in some Nic Jones songs (mainly 'Billy don't you Weep for Me') he sounds like he's chuckling through the whole song. On really serious lines too like 'she drowned in the water butt'.

I love Jon and John for sheer energy and the way they always seem like they're just having a laugh on stage.

I like the way when Pete Coe sings he sounds like when he talks. (I mean - some singers sound like completely different people when they sing and talk, and he doesn't)

I love Martin Simpson's voice becasue all the words are so clear and some of the songs are really emotional.

Oh I could go on all night!
