How would you rate Macy Gray as a singer?

Simply put, I don't think she can sing. She's one of those people who make the average Joe think, "If she can sing, so can I."

"Lack of home training crosses all boundaries."

Well, if you can stand Keith Richards and Bob Dylan as singers, you can dig Macy.
At least she doesn't sound like everybody else! thumbs up!

Macy's voice and style of singing are what make her unique and in this age of cookie cutter musical pollution, she's a breath of fresh air.

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

Let's just say I don't believe novel necessarily equals good.

But I give her credit for being able to sell her shtick.

I am not a fan but I think her voice is unique. Her material isnt really strong though. I give her credit for trying to do different things with her music compared to alot of her peers.

rating is tacky!!!! nuts for hot hoes lurking, prettyboys and professional musicians. geek 4, maybe, as a "singer". some of her tunes are really funky and i'm a fan to an extent. smoker

Love her vibe, while the singing isn't as good as her acting,

I love her free-flowin-don't-give-a-shit attictude.
