I didn't use the word"Anneke" anywhere because i didn't want to get reaction like "Anneke is gone,get over it blah blah blah",i don't care about Anneke,i'm not making comparisons.
(btw Anneke left to make this silly songs. I expected much from her solo career but she has the exact opposite problem. Tremendous talented voice,but she is just lame as a songwriter/composer, the stuff she does is so boring,i don't care anymore.End of this Anneke theme)
Silje is just bloody Cold.
Listening to the West Pole is like an anger management exercise. You are really calm,you put the disk on and just count how much time it takes to feel the anger. All this mumble mumble mumble in my ears gets my brain roasted. I don't get what she says except from words here and there,but above all the singing is so flat. Cold and flat like a straight line. And in a constantly low tone,it really gets on my nerves
I bet she can sing different stuff,but her passionless,heartless,flat,boring style just doesn't fit with TG.
There were so many choices,and their was that????
OK this is their choice and they have to support it now,until finally realising the mistake. But the choice should be considered more than something like "i don't want any anneke wannabes,i don't wanna hear about anneke anymore,i'm so mad,etc etc".
Anyone who is a singer can sing any song. But there's more than that. And this girl just can't get another level. It's on an LP,it's on live perfomances on older songs,what more does anyone need? Just hearing the songs with just "someone on the mic" (really anyone just decent could sing like Silje) is so far below even simply satisfying (not to mention awesome as it was before).
