She does have a tendency to oversing, but when people said this about Mariah in the beginning, she started doing all that whispering stuff. I'd rather her over-sing than try to restrain such a powerful set of pipes. I remember when she did "Reflection" for the Mulan Soundtrack....still one of my favorite songs from her; great vocal range. I like that she's grown as an artist, musically and visually. The first time I saw her I was amazed at how tiny she was...little girl with a huge voice. I'll take her over any of the other ones any day. Prince Rogers Nelson

Good point. Mariah's whisper voice is painful!  "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

 I'd actually say exactly the opposite. Mary J. screams at times, but I think she knows when to be restrained and when to get raw. OTOH, Christina = oversinging in my book. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I always get the feeling she tries too hard -- almost like she's auditioning for American Idol ("Ooh, look at all the notes I can hit!"). I didn't like "It's a Man's World" much at all. She didn't sound bad, but I think she just sang it like some kind of vocal workout as opposed to the touching and stirring ode to women from James. The meaning of the song is supposed to resonate with the listener and IMO it didn't.actully i think the people on American Idol are trying to sing like her. AI started after she released Lady Marmalade. my spelling sucks today!!

BTW, does anyone know if that performance is somewhere on the net to watch? "When Michael Jackson is just singing and dancing, you just think this is an astonishing talent. And he has had this astounding talent all his life, but we want him to be floored as well. We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |
