ORIGINAL: cordeliasub She does a pretty good job with Jolene, and without the machine gun/Elmer Fudd vibrato ;) I always liked the lyrics to this song - great sentiment: The Climb As an aside, as a music teacher with a Master's in vocal/choral music, I am very aware that she is not well-trained, and in some ways her voice is raw. But I teach my students that part of musicality is to learn to appreciate a variety of styles and genres, so even though personally she ain't my favorite, I can appreciate what she does bring to the table. That philosophy is how I got a bunch of 5th graders to appreciate opera ;) Besides - whether she is a Kathleen Battle or Adele or Ella or not - I would wager that she sings as well as most people who listen to the radio every day. Isn't this one of the main causes of vocal polyps plaguing the music industry today?
