Actually in a way I do. Not a memorable voice, but when it comes to putting a piece of music and video and performance together the woman knows exactly what she's doing and goes in with a vision, like the end product or not. And I respect that.
The Springsteins and the pop tarts and stuff that "sells", I consider that commercial pap that's been marketed by saturation campaigns without which a lot of it couldn't stand on its own. That's not the case with, say, Madonna.
Neil Diamond was a good and prolific songwriter and good singer whose body of work is mostly worthy; I'm just saying the number of records he sold is no way to arrive at that conclusion. When you consider that pop music is a business that sells commodities, sales and talent are simply unrelated.
