It's imperative to agree on what exactly the ingredients in the famous pudding will be before using that argument!

I didn't know who Adele was though her name seemed to be popping up a lot on Facebook recently. Shows how over the hill and out of touch I must be. She's got a gorgeous voice but boring (to my taste) music.<br />Here's her answer to comments about her appearance: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/adele-body-questions_5653279be4b0d4093a584b8dChristine Lacroixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02006109075551438090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-86014533269974246762015-11-21T12:05:58.042-06:002015-11-21T12:05:58.042-06:00With EQ you can either hunt these down and elimina...With EQ you can either hunt these down and eliminate them or bring them out.Bryan Townsendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482696991279345516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8827040061563065922.post-78565113483268240242015-11-21T12:05:12.031-06:002015-11-21T12:05:12.031-06:00On that song, "When We Were Young" it se...On that song, "When We Were Young" it seems to be more on the high E flat. This might be either just the way her voice is or an artifact of the recording. Maybe they want an edge on her voice. An edgy sound in the high register might simply equate to "authenticity" or something. I does remind one of some old blues recordings.

More nasal and annoying, very noticeable in this video:<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDWKuo3gXMQ<br /><br />Or maybe it's both, EQ and voice change?<br />luk17https://www.blogger.com/profile/10357854461685330699noreply@blogger.com
