Gwen Stefani Brings "Used To Love You" To The Voice
Gwen Stefani sure has an odd, wobbly delivery. I'd never really noticed it until I listened to this live showing of Used to Love You recorded for The Voice.

[New Music] Gwen Stefani Returns With New Single, "Baby Don't Lie"
Anyone else remember Gwen Stefani saying she was done with the solo stuff? Wait, let me confirm this isn't me making up rumors again...Ok, here it is: No Doubt's Gwen Stefani: 'I never want to make another solo album' . I guess the exposure from being a judge on The Voice USA was too much of an opportunity not to capitalise on. Smart.

[Watch] P!nk And No Doubt Join Forces @ I Heart Festival
Say What?! P!nk AND Gwen Stefani on one stage? Performing? Together?? Yes, calm down! It happened during No Doubt's set at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas. Unfortunately it was for only (half of) one song, but what song could be more appropriate than the girl power anthem, Just A Girl.

Vocal Profile: Gwen Stefani
Vocal Type: Mezzo-Soprano
Vocal Range:3 Octaves D3-D6
Whistle Register:No
Vocal Pluses: Instantly recognizable voice with a poppy and colourful tone that is well supported from the bottom to Middle of the voice and this is where it finds its most comfort. Gwen’s voice has managed to stay , relatively, in the same condition throughout her career (an aspect which is rare among most of todays singers).
The lower register, albeit lacking resonance, is very rounded, showing much control. The voice can easily mix into the upper belting register but Gwen stylistically often sings with a punky- throatier edge. The voice finds its ring within the middle of the belting register. The head register is light and agile, being able to instantly and seamlessly transition into it after a belted note.
Known for her unique trademark vibrato, Gwen’s voice is easily capable of transitioning from a solid belt to a Yodeling vocal wobble.
Vocal Negatives:Technique can be questionable at times. Her chest dominant belts can often sound heavy and strained due to the edgier sound she chooses. When performing live the key of her songs are often lowered so she can keep up with the band. Also, her head register is weak as it is often used merely for expression or exclamations; yet, can become much more resonant if properly executed. Also her Vibrato may not be to everyone's taste.
Thanks to Brian for creating the profile, and Serendipity for directing me to the video!

Spam Post: Madonna, No Doubt, The XX
I realise that I miss mentioning a lot of videos because I don't have the time to review them. So as of today I'm creating the "Spam post". This will be dedicated to more than one Diva, and will be used to keep you updated on new releases/videos/songs.
Don't let that stop you telling me what YOU think about the featured material- I love reading your opinions!
