Warning: This Record Sucks!
« on: September 28, 2012, 09:24:36 PM »



I love Diana Krall, and I love just about every record I've ever heard that T-Bone Burnett produced.  Whoever had the idea to put them together should  walk the plank

WTF -- who let her raid Christina Aguilera's wardrobe circa 2002?

"Stripped" as the album was aptly called, wasn't a bad album by the way...

As a general rule, I don't buy albums with pictures of people trying to look sexy on the cover.

Well you kind of went against that rule when you bought Rage Against the Machine's eponymous album.

I would respect Diana Krall a lot more if she did porn.

She's had a lot of work done in the last few years.  Makes sense as she's pushing 50 and contrary to what she and her fans tell themselves, relies on looks to supplement vocal skill that isn't there.  Nothing to be ashamed of- Julie London was the same way.  Except she could sing.


What I'm interested in is how much the nose job affected her voice - The nose is part of the "mask" when singing and a reason many prominent opera and standard singers have prominent noses.  (They don't choose to have them, but are helped out significantly by it.)

LOL!

I'd have to see what she can do first.

I only respect Bella Donna, Vanessa Blue, Sandra Romain and Rita Faltoyano. True skill...true skill.  :)p1

All the rest are...meh. :-\
