Hi Nicola, Thanks for your explanation - which of course does nothing to change the fact that I have never been able to become enthused about Sarah's voice (except for the duet with Andrea Bocelli, Time To Say Goodbye ... . As you said, each to one's own. I thoroughly enjoy a certain Welsh singer who has just released her 4th CD - and you seem quite a bit less enthusiastic about her  . Perhaps now this thread can return to the topic at hand  . All the best, Gerrit |

I would let the topic go back... but I am a fan of Katherine! I even went to see her in concert! Did you check out the thread in her sub-forum I made? I just don't think she is as good singer as others and her material could be better. That is all.  [/off topic] |

[off topic]Hi Nicola, to prevent this topic form going off topic any further, I'll answer you on the Katherine sub-board. [/off topic ] |

Having watched this saga unfold, may I contribute a wry comment. The kid is only 12 - don't be too hard on her. If we assume she has aspirations beyond her real stage of development and has acted these out in child-like fashion then that is a silly prank and it wouldn't be the first time someone has taken the Mick on the internet. It is, I suggest, rather embarassing for an adult to have been fooled by such a naive trick (if trick it is) so please do not allow that embarassment to fuel an over-reaction. She can put new recordings on her myspace or even close her account if the attention becomes to "hot". I think you make a salutary and fair comment, except with so much doubt, we con't know if she is actually 12, do we? Peter S. |

You provide some interesting recapitulation and further assessment which seems extremely well-balanced, Nicola.
Just as an aside, it is worth remembering that there were some in the music industry on first hearing her original 'amateur' tracks who didn't believe Hayley's voice had not been doctored electronically. It is known that 'enhanceents' do happen in the recording stage which cannot be reproduced by the singer live. Only as her reputation grew was it fully accepted Hayley was as extraordinary as she is.
