Thanks for those last few posts, y'all (Hejira, Jason, and Brian). They have been very interesting to read.

Hillary
You are welcome

I also think the way she uses her voice these days has alot to do with it. I do not know how to put my finger on it, but it is harsher than the way she used to use it. And - I think she can still sing that way - Gypsy Live is a good example of that - I just think she evolved.

A lot of Bella Donna is too slow and drifty for me. Of course I love Edge, and SDMHA, and like a few others, but...
Kick It is all yelly and passionate. Also, fairly uptempo. not drifty at all!

She sings more "full-chested" these days, as opposed to that softer, almost-whispery voice she often used in the past.

I do miss that voice, and LOVE when she brings it down off the curio shelf and shows it off ("Goodbye Baby," "Say Goodbye," "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town").
I wish she'd do that more often.

It's that crappy chorus - not yelly OR passionate, IMO.

Bella Donna the song - talk about yelly & passionate! "...and the woman may be so awestruck, and the woman may truly care, but the woman is so tired, OOOOOOOOHHH, so the woman disappears...come in out of the darkness, Bella Donna, MY SOOOUUULL!"

OK, I'm done. This is not the time nor the thread

It's called following the instructions of her vocal coach.
