Someone please tell Prince, Candy can't sing.

She is fucking horrid. She is no better than Kelly Clarkson or some American Idol hack.

Just bring in some back up singers, bring back Milena and teh short skirts.

She can't sing that good, if she could
she would be a singing artist not a sax player

Plenty of artists sing and play an instrument neutral and do a great job at it...

IMO, Candy is one of those people, multi-talented smile

And you're entitled to your own opinion, but do you really believe he'd have Candy up there if she couldn't sing, even a little?

hmmm well, why don't U tell prince candy cannot sing? while i don't exactly like candy's singing, i think it's rather audacious to make demands like this. AND while we're at it -- what do short skirts have to do with singing anyway? is that what your complaint is really about? hmmm

Some of those "American Idol Hacks" have a more-than-decent set of pipes.

No shit.

Candy's pretty good, actually. And I happen to think Kelly Clarkson can sing.

Candy plays wonderfully AND sings waaaayyyy the heck better than Madonna, Britney Spears, Apollonia, Carmen Electra, Mayte, Mariah Carey she ain't, but neither can Mariah blow that sax...I would say, I'm glad YOU didn't audition P's bandmates.

P is always pushing his bandmates 2 add sumthin new 2 there stage presence. Remember how he did Shiela E. Candy is not Patti Labelle but she's an adequate singer just like Rhonda is. P's just pushing them 2 do more just like he pushed Jimmy Jam&Terry Lewis 2 dance while they play ed their instruments as well as sing!

eh, whatever. i wouldn't buy a candy album or anything (not a big fan of the sax, for starters), but i think she can carry a tune. i don't know what people are so worked up over...if y'all don't knock it off, he's gonna bring back tony m. and give us all something to REALLY grouse about. eek

I agree with the original poster. Candy can't sing. She is the reason I skip LOTP. I cringe when I hear her voice. Sorry. She can blow on the saxaphone though, but she needs to leave the singing alone.

well i didn't think candy did all that well on the album version of "Life O' The Party" but on that clip on npgmc it sounded like she improved a lot. She's not the worst singer he has had, i give that honor to Apollonia....
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

yeah...it's good to know that a woman that pretty is playin' the sax and singin' rather than prancin' around on stage half naked and lip-synchin'. I think her voice is decent.....nothin' spectacular.

Dang... why you guys hatin' on Candy? She isn't that bad and i actually thought she sounded cool. She sings waaaaay better than a lot of those pop "princesses" in my opinion and she works well with the kid. By the way, Kelly can sing her ass off so i really don't know what you're smokin' over there my friend

No one is hating on Candy. Just because she may sound better than Britney, J-Lo, Ashanti and the rest of the pop-tarts doesn't say much about her singing ability. A lot of folks sound better than them, but that doesn't mean that they can sing.

Ok, I'd call it flawpicking. She's doing just great on the tour...that video performance w/"Fallen" was just beautiful. She's beautiful, talented and I think she's giving it all she has, which is all a performer can do. She's not trying to replace Alicica Keys by doin a bit of her hit in a medley w/ Prince.

Exactly!!! I saw her here in NYC with her band and she sang her own tunes beautifully, but hearing her destroy "Fallin'" is a shame.
