Surely we're allowed to have different opinions


Of course we are. And to discuss them on a discussion site (I'd have thought that was the purpose of it, but what do I know)....
You obviously don't read football chat boards. 😁

Oops sorry, meant Chris (Leslie). I think many of his songs are brilliant but some rather twee.
Re the "ands", she introduced quite a few lines with "and", which to me was irritating.
What have I got myself into here?

Hi Stephen B.
Sorry to prolong this, but you said tweer than Rick's worst songs... Rick who? Or did you mean someone elses songs??
Who uses the word 'and' at the start of every line?
Wasn't there - just trying to understand... 😉

As I posted elsewhere, I can heartily recommend the New Forest Folk Festival. I went for the first time this  year, and it is definitely the closest in ‘vibe’ to Cropredy of the several different festivals I’ve attended over the years. 3000 capacity, lovely people, and the singalongs and workshops give it an excellent community feel. Great music too!


That is a distinct possibility!

I see the new Brandon Flowers album has David Rawlings on guitar, an interesting combination.


I'm absolutely no fan of The Killers, but I'd be intrigued to hear that.
ditto . Out of interest have you seen the Elvis Costello archive? It appears legal.

So, to clarify, I've heard Vicki singing Sandy stuff before and thought it fine. This performance I thought was twee. Not sure if that can be classed as pejorative-it just wasn't complimentary (nor intended to be). Surely we're allowed to have different opinions... actually, what really surprised me is that I got away with saying I can't stand RT's voice  Wink


Views on his voice in general, aside (I like it, it is individual) I thought it sounded like RT had a cold this year, he sounded a bit poorly.

Genuine question - do you find Sandy 'twee'?


In truth I much prefer Ralph McTell’s delivery of ‘White Dress’.
Ralph could song my shopping list and sound good.
