Yes, but remember, she's from Chicago (or nearby), and Chicago has a different "brand" of blues.
Also, yes, Haley's smile is dazzling and infectious, which is why, when we see a shot of her not smiling, we immediately notice.

Your detecting abilities are astounding, but I think we know that posting it would be more harmful than helpful, unfortunately.
If we could guarantee that everyone who heard it would buy it, but looking at how good LU is and how many followers she has yet she can't even sell 100,000.... 
I guess the digital Pandora's box is open, if it's already out there I guess it will eventually be 'making the rounds' just like the other leaked songs still do (which BTW Haley made NO money from)....but how can Haley be successful if so many of her fans/followers don't even buy her album.... I would be so frustrated if I were her
If everytime she works hard to make the best song she can and she finds out that its out there for everyone to download for free and she gets only a fraction of what she should?
I guess this is the times we live in and I have no answer.... I just feel bad that no matter how genuine her efforts are to brighten our lives with her songs, this is just another reason she can't sell, and I will continue to have to listen to her haters point to her sales as proof that they are right about her... 
You can't pay the bills with tweets and trends 
You know, Tusk, I have been quite concerned about this very thing since I began following Haley's journey. Pre-internet days, it was easy enough to "bootleg" an album, but now I honestly don't see how a recording artist stands a chance. Obviously, those established have the mechanisms in place to protect their concerns, but for new and upcoming people, it's got to be hugely challenging.
Sort of gives new -- or different -- meaning to part of the chorus of the song
Feeling Good: "It's a new dawn, it's a new day"....
The question is, will they be "feeling good" at the end of it?
