I saw Siouxsie on Sky Arts HD a few weeks ago with her new band. doing mostly Banshees stuff, mostly good but Spellbound was absolutely awful - flat & slow. New stuff was fine though

I can definitely say that my friend Lucy is by far the best singer I have ever heard. She may be my friend, but she just has the most amazing voice.
