The third link is not working. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

Who do you consider better then? Some would argue Carrie Underwood and you could possibly argue Joss Stone. Alicia Keys, Adele, and Mary J. Blige all have good voices as well. I don't see too many others as competition.

I've heard a lot of good things about Bjork but I haven't heard much from her. I'll have to listen to her soon. Fiona is a decent vocalist but nothing special to me.

What I like most about Kelly is she can go into almost any era and you could imagine her succeeding. She's very diverse. She could do pop standards, pop, blues, and country. I can't say that for most other great vocalists.

You have singers like Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Rhianna, Britney. Not very good vocally. I consider Christina Aguilera and Beyonce as vastly overrated. I'm not a big fan of the male voice so I don't listen to too many male singers. A lot of mediocrity among singers so there's only a few standouts IMO.

I listen to a lot more oldies music than today's music. I don't voluntarily listen to today's music. Other people turn it on so I hear it a lot. I'd like to hear more indies music but I haven't been able to find a station that plays it.

The performance was good but I'd have to hear more from her. It's in the lower register where the great singers shine so I'd have to hear other performances from her.

Regarding other comments Kelly does do a lot of songwriting. From what I can tell many of her fans think she's good at it. I don't think her record label feels the same way so we'll see what happens after she leaves her record label. Just because she's a pop musician doesn't mean she doesn't write her own lyrics.

I used youtube links in the first post so obviously I'm familiar with it. Do you have any recommendations?
