I really don't mind all sorts of weird and wacky and downright amateurish vocals, but...

She has an astonishing ability to fail to be able to connect various keys and octaves across a melody.

Her voice constantly collapses into a kind of asthmatic near-inaudible gasp at the exact moment when something even slightly more powerful is needed.

Yes, Moving Targets.

I always remember it being good. bawl

Not you.

I can't tell if there's a good song under the terrible production.

You can hear the odd wiff of New Order's pop stuff, but…

by Nightjar Sat Aug 08, 2020 8:59 pm

This is also a terrible upload.

But that fact hardly disguises...
