| He's a rubbish singer. Can hold a tune but has no timbre, cadence or charisma whatsoever. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)

| Backing singer seems to think he's on Take 5. _________________ |

I think it's just what we'd call chews/penny chews. Isn't Taffy a brand of American sweets caandy?

| It is over. It was inoffensive but lacked the variety I require. Also, I noticed she avoided going for the really big notes. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. _________________ |

| Well, it was okay. She has a nice voice and the production was crisp, if a little dated. It all became a bit samey part way through but the last track kind of helped it pick back up again. Nice that most of the songs were new - to me.
3/5 |

| It was fine, but just well, a bit dull, even if it was only 32 minutes long. _________________ I saw weird stuff in that place last night. Weird strange, sick, twisted, eerie, Godless, evil stuff…

I think it's just what we'd call chews/penny chews. Isn't Taffy a brand of American sweets caandy? Maybe, but I don't think that when Americans in general would call taffy per se. This whole 'taffy pulling' malarky is like an ancient (200 years old) cultural cornerstone to them. _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)
