My introduction to Imelda May was when she was supporting Jools Holland at Eastnor Castle in 2008. There was a power cut but, like true professionals, they carried on a capella. Afterwards I went over and bought one of Imelda's CDs she was selling from the boot of her car. Amazing lady 😻

Imelda May is simply 'fabulous'! My 2 year old daughter recognizes & dances to her tunes, my ringtone is 'big bad handsome man' (reminds me of the Hubbie...) In this day & age of manufactured pop & auto tuning, Imelda & her amazingly talented Husband Darryl Higham make a great change to the 'musical geniuses' we are forced to listen to in the Top 40 & on awful shows like The X Factor.... Imelda, we love your music, please keep it coming!! :) x
@jimdandy57987 жыл бұрын
Man. I just love her voice. The first time I saw Imelda May was on Later With Jools Holland (On BBC America). She performed before Katy Perry and the difference in voice quality, delivery and power was remarkable. Nothing against Ms. Perry, but her voice (IMO) cannot compare to Imelda May. There is a certain quality in Ms. May's voice that the over-produced pop-singers just do not have. I'm sorry to hear Ms. May and her husband broke up, but I'm glad she's continuing her career. We need more true artists and far less over-produced "musical product" to choose from. We can always hope. But I'm not holding my breath given today's PC music business.
