BassBus Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Only heard her first one and quite liked it. This is something completely different. Wow! Hope she continues to write/find good songs. That's quite a performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] [quote name='Mcgiver69' timestamp='1317669842' post='1393132'] I hate her recorded music, always over produced and noisy but live she is something else. I love her when she is singing with a live band, wow just wow. And yes I totally would!! [/quote] Oh, please, do we have to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethFlatlands Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Wasn't a fan of the 2 songs I'd heard but from that video she clearly has a great voice. It'll be interesting to see if she lasts or indeed writes any of her own stuff. I'm not qualified to comment on her looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

risingson Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I like her, not so much my kind of music but I'd prefer to see a million more girls like her make their way in the industry than see one more Lady Gaga. Jessie has a very obvious songwriting talent and a great voice too, so good luck to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPJ Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 If she's so talented why does she have to dance around with no clothes on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Some people find it empowering to do it....weird huh. If she's so talented, why has she spent the last 10 years with a deal, writing for others....oh wait, that doesn't work. Some people choose to come out and perform, why should they be lynched for it?

stingrayPete1977 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I think gaga rocks! Too many x factor wannabes want instant fame for nothing, even if you don't like gaga as a performer you can't knock her for not putting the hours in learning to play,sing and dance often at the same time.

chrismuzz Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I have respect for some pop artists even if I really really can't stand the music they make. I've only head a couple of singles by Jessie J before and i thought it was just more irritatingly catchy throwaway pop crap... This video shows that she's actually amazingly talented and yeah her band rock too! It's nice to be pleasantly surprised sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si [/quote] ^ Aww, you know what I'm saying! Not pop music itself, but [i]her[/i] music... I mean, I don't dislike her at all and she comes across well interviews. But I don't think she's original or memorable enough to create a real legacy for herself and become one of pop music's 'greats'. I mean, I can't hum a single one of her songs right now. And of course that doesn't mean a damn thing - I might just be a dullard! - but I can hum a number of songs from Madonna, Lady GaGa and so on. Let's maybe check back in a year and see how she's doing... in the meantime, good luck to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBassBob Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I was actually talking to a friend about pop recently and I listed Jessie J as one of the few modern pop stars I don't mind; I like her voice, her attitude and her image. I can't put my finger on it but she doesn't have that "egotistical bitch" thing going on that so many other artists have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monckyman Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Gaga is going Maddonna route 1,and it`s working well. I think JJ will be around for a bit, given her talents and obvious promotional expertise. Her next Lp will deliver the killer blow with a couple of massive hits and establish her as a major British artist. People wrote Adele off a couple of years ago as a one dimensional Duffy/Winehouse wannabe. I think it`s safe to say they were wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1317666220' post='1393031'] Gareth, watch how she will get slagged off on here now she has some success. Once success is achieved, regardless of talent and credibility or whether she is a very nice person, the artist is a machine immune to hurtful comments and criticism, and the fact her bassist is a respected bass chat member don't mean sh*t.

[/quote] Can't stand her either- I mean in an interview she was whining on about how she has to pay £4 million in tax. Sorry, but if you're earning enough money to have that kind of tax bill then you have NOTHING to complain about. Especially since now you have enough money to go record your next album in a place that doesn't have those kind of tax bills and make a hell of a lot more profit.

[/quote] Since she first entered the music industry unfortunately. I would argue very strongly against the undeniability of her songwriting talent and voice. It's just incredibly mediocre music... fair enough, she's made a lot of money doing what she's done and I respect it in many, many ways, but it's frustrating hearing her dominate the airwaves with total trash. There are considerably stronger talents out there that don't rely on gimickry, huge PR backing and million dollar stage shows to impress an audience, Jessie J's music stands up in this way I believe, even if it isn't my kind of music. She has a very obvious and raw talent. Edited October 5, 2011 by risingson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of interest though-the guys in the video are different from the guys who I've usually seen her with. I'm guessing that's her US band. I've got to be honest,I'm pretty impartial about Jessie J. I think she's better than your Winehouses and Adeles,but not as good as your Gagas and Aguileras. I wouldn't but her album,but I won't turn the radio off either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_Stu Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 If you like drooling over her you'd love the pics in her album notes, though they're all my fave is one with Union Flag lippy on, which I'm assuming is a P'shop job, but is still the best of the lot.
