Joss Stone

Went to see Joss Stone last night - fantastic. What an amazing voice. She doesn’t have much stage presence as she is about 3 apples high (she looks a lot like Catrin) and has a really quiet speaking voice. She spoke lots between songs but I have no idea what she said! Once she starts singing though, the stage is all hers. Plus she kept in giggling and at one point burst out laughing in the middle of a song. It was hard not to enjoy the show when she was having such a good time. Dirty Man and Some Kind of Wonderful were excellent. We were not that impressed with some of the new stuff though. Especially Snakes and Ladders, it was kind of Europe meets Falco meets Aretha Franklin. It started out with this big synth intro then carried on with lots of power ballad guitar and Joss’ R&B voice over top of it. Will have to wait to hear it on CD.
