Having said that, there is a sober school of thought that says her musical contributions to B and S are 'intrusions' and spoil the organic wholeness of the (earlier) albums: i.e she should stick to her other little projects. (I agree with this, though I think when she contributes to a duet she is absolutely excellent and integral to the B and S sound: but I also think she looks a bit 'fishy' in photographs and is possibly quite a manipulative person, whereas Stuart looks like a good, honest, wholesome gentleman who should not be mixing with that sort! - let alone recording songs with them...)

What are you on? She looks a bit fishy and manipulative? Her musical intrusions spoil the sound of B&S? How can you possibly know? She is integral to the sound of B&S she is very much a contributer to the sound that you like. If anything her voice can be a bit weak. But musically she is there, an active partipant in creating the overall sound. Its like saying ringo spoiled the beatles. Organic wholeness......My arse! _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
