Got any good tips for Hayley? By all means, post 'em here. I'll get us started:
1. Sing "Here Beside Me" in concert once in a while. It's one of your best!
2. Wear bright green as often as possible. That color truly looks great on you.
3. Consider singing some Jacques Brel songs, such as "Sons" and "Marieke". You could own them if you wanted.
4. Appear on more TV shows in the USA. You were terrific in "American Dreams" and you'd be awesome on "The OC" if that's still a possibility.

Heh, I'm sure if she passed the hat today it would be more overflowing than a New Orleans levee.

My tips for Hayley...
Hayley, don't ever change; no matter how famous you become. Oh, please have Steve Abbott fix a concert here in northeastern Pennsylvania!

Another tip I'd give to Hayley and her team: Try to spice up the next album with more daring fare.
There's a reason Odyssey's sold only a fraction of Pure's numbers: It was noticeably lacking the thrills, chills and excitement we'd come to expect. Just look at all the customer reviews on Amazon which opined that it was relatively bland. Next time out, give us more edgy tunes **SPAM? PLEASE REPORT la Wuthering Heights and more explosive music **SPAM? PLEASE REPORT la Benedictus alongside the sweeter stuff.

Hi chungchungxavier, I don't think Hayley needs any lessons, she still has the voice of an Angel,  Her voice if just changing a little as she matures, like any other voice would do. Steve H  |

Steve H Quite right Steve- I agree! I'm sure Hayley would feel really encouraged if she knew that Dame Malvina Major was present in the audience during a concert though- to offer lots of moral support, since she's taught Hayley about voice support!

 I don't know . because I am taking voice lessons myself and my vocal coach says that we need vocal coaching to become a good singer ......................................................................................... Hi Again, That is exactly the point I was trying to make, Hayley already IS a good singer. (in my humble opinion) Steve H |

Hi All, I am sure Heyley recognises what she has already accomplished as a singer but I am also sure she feels there is much still to learn. Hayley is a perfectionist and I am sure wants to learn how to develop a very good voice into a to truly great one! Stuart |

It is not easy to define a "great voice". More importantly, technical excellence is no good without beauty. Many people consider Hayley's voice to be beautiful. That is no doubt partly due to Dame Malvina's coaching but it is largely due to Hayley's very special gift.
Of course Hayley is constantly striving to improve on what many of us consider perfection but, for me, no voice ever sounded more lovely than hers. And it seems I am not alone. The fact that she has sold in excess of two million CDs speaks for itself.

Hello everybody! Hayley's singing is now so good she could give her own tips to other aspiring young singers. In fact she did exactly that at Classicalive last year! Best Wishes, Richard |

Perhaps she could commit them to writing, expand on them a bit, and publish "Tips For The Aspiring Young Singer." I bet it would sell very well, especially if there were some pics in it.
My biggest tip to her though, would be to stay apolitical.
