My point is that Stevie is 76....and as a result she gets certain allowances, certain "passes" when her vocals are not what they were when she was 26 or 36 or even 46.... She sang Landslide at the MJFox thing, and it was cheered because she is who she is, and because she has the history and past successes that she has and all of that.... Because the vocal performance she gave that night was...less than. It was serviceable, but it was not great. If she was starting out, or if she was on any of those singing competition shows....no one would have said "Wow that's an amazing singer!!" It would have been good for a dinner theater or cruise ship show. But.....because she's got 50+years of success behind her....and because she's pushing 80....allowances are made. Clear enough?
