What she lacks in the technical part, she compensates with the ability to force you feel exactly the way she felt creating her art, and relive it through your eyes. Isn't that the sole purpose of art in general?
see, i don't get emotion from Stevie like you do. i get emotion and intensity from Lindsey. his performances provide something that you can get lost in, for me. so when someone says SN can express emotions through music "eons better than him" as an absolute truth like you did here, well... we all have different things that move us, and the right to our opinions, no? i don't feel what you do, and you don't feel what i do.

It would be much easier for you to enjoy her work with FM that you can put up with, and ignore the rest. And no, I am not one of the fans who faints of excitement every time she twirls, and wears platform boots. I am one of those fans that loves her for who she is as an artist.
wow. when did we switch to personal attacks just because we like different kind of music? it's always good to have a balance. most people don't like to hear opinions that differ from theirs. but it should be healthy discussion, not jumping down people's throats, and calling them "bad" people b/c they don't like the same artist.

it would be much easier for me if LB stays solo, period.
