Jessie J...Got to be one of the best Live voices from the UK Radio 1 Live lounge link

[DodgyRog]

Her first song that came to my attention was do it like a dude and to be honest, it doesn't do it for me.

 

Price Tag is much more catchy and has become one of my favourites at the moment

 

I heard this while driving around Cornwall in the lorry on Fern Cottons Live Lounge and to say this girl can sing is just a massive understatement, just hope she uses that wonderful voice a bit more in her uncoming stardome

Not really into her music but i would give her my man meat.

Very good performance, but as usual, check out those inane pop lyrics (and now I'm sensing a Jamaican accent in there too - as well as her American one)

 

Still...her pitching is good.

 

Edit:

 

I think that the country has become quite conditioned to most Pop stars not being able to sing, and when someone comes along who can...we're somewhat surprised. But we shouldn't be. It's their job to sing - I should add there are hundreds of bands in this country that we will never here of whose vocalists are as good and in some cases even better.

 

It's a funny beast, the Music business, but good luck to her

She can clearly sing, but I find her songs and accent etc quite cringeworthy.

I thought she sounded like a chav

"Do it like a dude" makes her sound like she's a "bad girl" from a bad part of London or something. Not into that kind of stuff at all.

[Rob_Mitchell]

i think she is awesome

Exactly. Although it's nothing new. Three words; stock aitken and waterman.

[Havard]

Not worth a squirt IMO and that leads me to not like her music......strange..!!

I've liked her songs so far, i think she's a brilliant singer when she's actually singing, and not making stupid noises and eratic, i'm a gangster arm movements If she focused more on the performance and less on her image i think she'd be brilliant. GL to her though

[caseys]

Her accent is complete anathema to me I'm afraid. Then again I find anyone with an accent which abused the English language quite grating.

She's very common sounding, but then so is Adele who also has a good voice, and I've always liked Lily Allen too.

I'm constantly amazed at how the music press react when someone actually puts on a good performance. We have been brainwashed to expect artists in "popular music" to be mediocre. Take the current No. 1 for example: nice song and a good rendition, but people in the industry(especially radio) are salivating as if she has reinvented the wheel. It's her job ffs! I could go on but you get the jist.
