Just because we survived this once doesn't mean you should get cocky.

font class="post"1b,121b, 21I guess it was too obvious to mention Dusty Springfield, who godmothered this whole deal?b,121b,121And as far as Duffy...I saw her live recently (I was there for Eli "Paperboy" Reed, who opened)...I hate to sound like Mr. Moldy Fig Rekkid Collector, but Duffy has more in common with [i]High School Musical/i1 than anything soulful, past or present. You can hear traces of Dusty, but it still comes out of the wash sounding like Teen Pop 2008. At least with Joss Stone, the soul influence was more obvious.

No, Portishead is comepletely different.b, 21b, 21Technically I have never heard Duffy so perhaps I should have included her, but I know there are other out there that I am no mentioning.b,121b, 21b,121The catch is that they do a pretty good impersonation, and thats how they get you. what frightens me is that we are outsourcing these jobs to foreign countries when there are qualified people right here in the good ol USA that could be doing them.b,121b, 21b,121Adele my ass!

font class="post"1b,121b, 21b,121Sayin'. Gibbons doesn't "sound black" at all, nor is she on some soul shit. Unless Portishead seriously changed direction on the new album that I haven't heard. b,121b, 21I saw that Adele chick on SNL and she was aiiiiiiiiiight. I couldn't help thinking through the whole song that Amy Winehouse did everything she was doing earlier and better. Are they banking on the fact that Amy's going to buy the farm and grooming Adele to be a more wholesome replacement?
