Am I the only one who hears the Billie Holiday influence in her voice? Just love Madeline ❤️
I like that she doesn't scream, doesn't squeak, doesn't squeal, doesn't whisper and doesn't moan, but sings in a gentle feminine voice.
I remember when I first listened Madeleine singing in Paris. It was in July 1991 in a corner in front of the church of Saint Germain. She was singing with the jazz group The Last Wandering.❤
This is on repeat all 2023. I’ve learned many lessons this year!
