haven't listened to the new(ish) album yet, but saw her on SNL this week and thought it was ... terrible? Am I the only one?

I thought she sounded fine, though neither topped the album versions. She was so happy to be there, it was adorable.

On the first song on SNL while she looked happy to be there, I thought her voice sounded a bit off and almost amateurish/karoake ish. On the second song it seemed she had steadied her nerves and had it it more together. But it still didn't live up the album .

one year passes...

'soft sounds' is a perfect album

Agreed. I'm so glad Jubilee was a breakout album for them and has done so well, but Soft Sounds is in a different league. One of my favourites of the last ten years.
