I think she's OK. I have some of her music. But for that vocal range I prefer Sarah McLachlan. Actually, there are a lot of singers that I like. But that has no bearing on my previous post. :)

Oh whatever. :roll:

If Klugmo's drunk, then so are all Alison's peers in the music industry, considering she has won more Grammys (at least 2 dozen) than any other female artist in Grammy history, in ANY genre.

She is an accomplished singer and musician, highly respected in the music industry, and often credited with reviving interest in Bluegrass music itself.

Her voice is often described as "angelic" by music reviewers and music industry heavy-hitters, and I would have to agree. She has a very silky smooth delivery, that is very soothing and pleasing to the ear, as well as a seemingly ever-youthful sweetness in her voice.

BTW... She has also collaborated with VOLUMINOUS artists in various genres, including... an album she did with Robert Plant, that was nominated for 5 Grammys, and won Album of the Year at the 2009 Grammys.


Here's one of their duets:

The girl in your video (Not Krauss obviously) has a good voice too, but not as polished.... she blows it a little bit on the high parts.

But...

I was thinking... "That's a Christian song and she's performing with a nose ring? But then I realized it was a big mole (it looks like that anyway)

LOL

Not as bad as this one though...

Sorry... That didn't ruin anyone's lunch did it?

It IS funny, though. If you do a search for Allison KRAUS, with 'Hallelujah," that's the vid what pops up...I didn't even read the title on the page...duh!

I have a hard time listening to Allison. Don't get me wrong, I love her stuff but she makes me cry all the time. Just something in the timbre of her voice and coupled with the subject of pain in love and I lose it. I hate admitting this.
