I don't know whether to laugh or feel "disturbed" by this thread.........or for that matter, that I'm even responding.
Our tastes, and the deeper reasons for our individual tastes responding to different factors where "art" and creativity are involved is a complex and very personal thing, as is, how an "artist" chooses to present their abilities and talent to us mere mortals. We are all entitled to an opinion on anything but to be overly judgemental of someone for any reason, when we have not "grown up" in their shoes is something we don't have any right to claim.
Niks has never been a classic or technical vocalist, but, she has that "something" that fitted the moment and to be honest, I'd take her performances (past and present) over much of what is being produced these days.
