  2.  This whole profile is in a sorry state and doesn't do any justice to the gorgeous Fiona. Will sort it out soon!

  4. Her voice sounds like heartbreak and resilience.
    By the way have you heard her rendition of "I Want You" ?
    It is truly shiver inducing.

  5. I see in a response below that Fiona's profile would be improved, but so far not a single new information was added. I hope you're working on it, 'cause an artist like her, against the tide of electro/gimmick songs we have nowadays, surely needs a decent profile.

    Btw, I love your work on this site. it's so informative! ;)

  6. More than a beautiful voice, her talent as a songwriter is undeniable. I think she's brilliant,  visceral, her songs take you to a different journey everytime.

  7. She hits an incredibly strong A2 on "Daredevil" off her new album :)
    Bringing her vocal range to 3 octaves now.

  9. Diva Devotee I'm curious to know how you felt about Fiona's latest effort "The Idler Wheel..." (I'm far too lazy to type that one out lol) ?

  10. The Idler Wheel is her critically most appraised album to date. And I can't disagree with what folks are saying. In terms of the sound, it is a more daring and diverse offering than earlier work.The quirk of "Every Single Night" meets old Fiona on "Werewolf" and "Periphery." With time, she sounds more compelling than she did on Tidal or When the Pawn...It's definitely worth a listen if you like Apple's sound and themes.

  13. Fiona's voice is amazing! She is my second favorite singer beside Leona Lewis. Her voice is very distinctive, dark, and can be playful and dramatic a second later. She definitely holds a special place in my heart.

  14. i like some songs but i find her voice to be kind of flat and boring. it gets irritating after awhile as if all she's really doing is talk singing.

  15. Really one of my favorite females in music <3 besides Mariah Carey. Great Voice and Lyric!

  16. We really need to have a profile for Fifi's sister, Maude Maggart if only for this video:
    Her take on The Carpenter's 'Superstar'. This woman's voice is perfection, absolutely insatiable.
