@@treatpeoplewithkindness2955 My partner likes Olly a lot. His whole back-catalogue has run trough my speakers, many times. I must admit to the fact that he writes more than decent songs. I even liked his last album. In the studio, you can tweak anyone's voice to an acceptable level with autotune. Olly Live is of a different sorts. I have never (I mean n-e-v-e-r!), ever, heard a famous singer, sing as unpleasantly false as Olly Alexander. His voice wavers all over the place. I sometimes wonder: does he have problems with his in-ears, or is he absolutely tone-deaf? My own diagnosis is, that he never took any singing lessons. He uses his voice in a very unusual, high pitched key; certainly not fit for him. His speaking voice is perfectly normal; a baritone. There's your lengthy answer.
