...is she really any good live? Cos if she is then what they've done to her in the recording studio must be a travesty!

Yeah... I challenge Matt to a duel!

Seriously though, he's not wrong; the record is poor and slightly sickly in comparison and does her very little justice, i even said so in my review. Live though, I quite like her and I stand by that.

Had to laugh though when I found both reviews together though.

Of course I'm not wrong :lol:

I'll buy her as better live, all the comparisons are to people I like, but i never got any of that from the records - Bovine sent me both the single and the album through to review for my sins. The single's worse.

Ah, you're Matt! I had no idea :roll:

Yeah, the single version is awful, I heard it on a local station and it did nothing for me. Hope you didn't mind me referencing the ol' blancmange comment. I have the original release with the live recording, it's a good song but I too have issues with the shiny overcoating.

It's official - K T has been done over like a kipper - sorry for coming between you two but I was only discussing this the other night - she has to be seen live to be appreciated and apparently her single was diluted down and stripped to the bone - was not happy with the Dido comment SPT - come on - K T is far superior to her on the 'whoo hoos' alone :wink:
