I walked past while she was on, and my impression was great voice but uninspiring music-by numbers. Sorry.

I said this on the other thread, she was magic when doing her own stuff, tightrope, cold war and that, but dreadful when doing cover versions. THere's no way she needed to do a version of, for example, Cherie Amour. Her material is stronger than that.

you have nothing to be sorry for.
all music is by numbers ;) .i think if you had seen her perfomance of "tightrope" then you may change your opinion.

Walking past evidently didn't give you enough of a flavour. She was absolutely incredible by all accounts... my brother is a difficult man to please and he won't stop talking about her. I only caught the last half of the set going into Big Boi, but f**k me... she was on another level.

Shame you missed out (and are happy to form a negative opinion based on it...)
