LeAnn Rimes

[cabbagekid]

Wow! Her Acapella was so clean. I listened to the original version which is a great song, hut Leann's version was so much better, in my opinion. I don't think I've ever heard a rendition be better than the original.

How come LeAnn doesn't sing anymore? I've forgotten how clear her voice is.

The greatest tragedy of LeAnn Rhimes is not her poor taste in men, but that her poor taste in men got in the way of her singing. She has always had an incredible voice. I hope that her appearance on Masked Singer is a relaunch of sorts for her.

You know you won when the audience is dead silent at the end for just that pause of, "WOW." LeAnn, sing more! We want your voice back!

Also, didn't her father and manager steal money from her?

Not that that is an unusual situation, sadly.

She's always had an amazing voice. It's a pity her personal life and her crazy shenanigans overshadow her actual talent. But having said that, she's been quiet in the last few years. Hopefully she's left the dramatics behind and is focusing on her singing again.

Everybody loves a comeback story. Rooting for her. (And for her not to be so messy.)

It was about seven million between the two of them. She did reconcile with her dad later.

I felt terrible when I heard that happened.

Same situation with Rihanna, IIRC.

I remember some drama around How Do I Live but it’s vague. Something like Trisha Yearwood recorded it but then LeAnn’s people also got her to record it and rushed it out before Yearwood’s version? Anyway, I didn’t pay much attention to it but I clearly remember that I preferred LeAnn’s.

ETA: My memory was fuzzy; here’s why they both recorded it

I preferred Yearwood's but thought both were fantastic. I've always felt like Trisha's songs were ALMOST great but they never quite make it over the hump, and that one was the closest
