She does have a good voice (if that's the style of music you prefer), but the first time I heard it, my reaction was more along the lines of "That's coming from a THIRTEEN-YEAR-OLD? What's she using?" She does good stuff, but some of her work is very weird. Hearing her singing "Summertime" (I think that's the name of the song) was extremely odd...

I didn't hear her sing "Summertime," but I like the song with or without the dialect. I wondered, during that program, if she would sing that, but never heard it. They were doing a fund raiser for the public station and I wonder if I heard an edited version. If I remember correctly, much of the music from "Porgy and Bess," requires a singer with a wide-range voice, and she has that.

Your school banned this forum? Why!?
