BEN FOLDS PRAISES MARIAH

FROM THE NEW YORK POST:
She's got the most amazing voice. Although the production on her new album, "The Emancipation of Mimi" (Island), may turn some off, I find the sheer talent involved reason enough to listen. I love classic soul ballads like "Mine Again" and "Fly Like a Bird." I also like that she's using her voice on this album more like a male singer might, like Prince. She could show off and belt, but she's evolving and doesn't seem to need to prove herself every bar, so you get the interpretation of an amazing singer.

I'm curious as to what he means by this statement.

Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off
