after read your Paul Mc.Donald post I'agree too with that.
Only our big love for Haley(and her talent) give us patient and hopes about H.E.R.some day succes 
I keep editing it.. hard to get that much out right the first dozen times. I'd never get my thoughts out if I waited for it to be perfect the first time I say it outloud!
Hey.. thanks ( lol and thanks for the gentle ribbing !)
I had to take on some thoughts I wanted to express triggered by that "Harry Connick Junior" thread.
I try to talk about the great part of that God Bless the Child here . By bringing up what I loved about my other two favorite performances,I try to sort of support what some people might see me too much into that ONE performance in the club. There is an underlying style of Haley's I appreciate consistently.
My thoughts also tried to touch on the almost impossible thoughts about of what a musical artist can do for people that simple words without the inflections are hard to define.
Line from Santeria "what I really want to say, I can't Define"
That Harry Connick thread also referenced Haley's "attitude", and different tastes. I tried to hit that too at the end. I needed to say something about that.
I have the theory that some jazz lovers are put off by these peformances of Haley because they don't personally relate.. and perhaps are even put off .. by the "rakish" attitude. How can they appreciated how perfectly she expresses an attitude they find "indulgent" . The message often does say .. "to indulge" . (enough) .
Jack London had a character use the line "Another bit of yeast in the great forment" .... a captain that sort of roared back at the winds he faced. Not everyone likes Jack London either.

I had things to say about legitimate ways to select performers for a show that weren't about talent per-say. I tried to take that on slightly in the "Paul Macdonald" thread.
