I couldnt care less about these ladies to be honest....i mean yes, their voices are beautiful, and the slightly chubby one with the blond hair is gorgeous buuut every time im up late with nothing better to do and their "special" is on, I watch closely to see if there is any lip synching going down. I can pause and rewind my tivo a good 25 times throughout each show and catch the sound of fully breathing when they barely open their mouth, the violinist missing a full chord, the percussionists drumming late ect. I dont care wether its just for certain tv performances or not, the simple fact is that you shouldnt be subject to paying the same amount of money to hear a live performance and also to listen to a cd in a concert hall. ONE time is enough for me to doubt their honesty and for anyone to know this information and still pay an arm and a leg to go see them in "concert" is really making a fool of themself. Who knows, maybe all you defending them are just so well off that your not concerned about money, but as a college student with a part time job i wouldnt waste my time.I have a sister who is an advancing singer(and a damn good one at that) and she loves these ladies. I felt bad that i had to burst her bubble.. that she"ll never sound like that on stage or ANYBODY will for that matter. It should be a major dissappointment to their fans and anybody who says otherwise is just in plain denial. Look at the jonas brothers for instance,(i also couldnt care less anout them as well, but my sister is a fan)they SUCK at singing, but they still have the balls to go out there and give their fans a good HONEST performance, and look how far it's taken them. Stop "defending" the celtic woman, they dont need or want you to im 100% sure of this. The fact that they havent replied to anyones questions regarding the subject only shows that they dont want to lie on paper, they would much rather just do it on stage. Its a moral dilemma for them I guess...but I wouldnt waste my time or money on their morality. The only reason im responding to this now is because i feel the need to set people straight on common sense and because i have nothing better to do annnd at the moment nobody has called me regarding a party yet. peace out homies!
