I don't know, I turned her off, I just couldn't watch it any more.


Maybe you could post a link to a good live performance of hers?

I had a quick look on youtube, found this one which is not too bad:

But you're right, her songwriting is probably better than her performing.

Hmmmm, I'm not 100% convinced she is actually singing that.

In this version, she is definately miming, and the vocal sounds identical to
your first link. Maybe? Not sure yet .....

Ha! Tell you what, try running 2 instances of those 2 Youtube videos in
sync. You will notice they are both the same vocal, though at some points
there are extra harmony lines put in on one of them, I think.

Anyway, whatever, one or both is a fake.
