Has nothing to do with video oriented or not.

The range could have been overlooked but she took a sexy song and made it angry by yelling it and it just didn’t work.

It felt like she sacrificed the lyrics for a performance.

It was not quite as bad as but also not unlike when vocalists over sing the National Anthem.

Debbie in her prime channeled some serious Marilyn qualities.

She could sell the sensual far better than say Madonna and without the slut factor.

Debbie was the complete package but even from just the shoulders up she oozed sensuality.

She hits you with those eyes and it’s game over.

Yep, had a huge crush on her. Stayed up late to see her on that show with Wolfman Jack, "Midnight Special"!!! She sang, "Heart of Glass", and was wearing that trademark single strapped dress she always wore at the time. I remember wishing that strap would break!!! Lol. I've actually got a copy of "Heart of Glass" on a 45.

Depends on what you define as talent.

There are too many subtleties to ever really make that comparison.

There's that question people often ask, which covers do you think are better than the original.

My answer is always, anything Carole King wrote for and was originally performed by someone else that she later performed and released herself. That includes Natural Woman even though no one would ever claim Carole King is in the same vocal category as Aretha. But Caroles performance is equally as soul stirring as Aretha's.

Miley is undoubtedly one of the best vocalists currently performing.

But she also can't claim to have been at the forefront of a whole new genre of music that drove massive cultural and societal change for an entire generation.

Miley has matured and what she does today showcases her talent, swinging naked from a wrecking ball, sorry, that wasn't talent, anyone could have done that.

I liked the part where Kutcher thought she was trying to hook up with him....and she was trying to set him up with her mother. Oh boy!

Ha, yes that was funny! Did we ever get a look at Miley's mother?

I didn't watch the show after Charlie S left.

She has a wider vocal range than Deborah Harry. She chooses to sing it the way she does for a reason, unknown to us.

One of the funniest shows ever on television. I can’t stand Ashton Kutcher, so I haven’t watched the reboot either.

Well, that’s going to be difficult.

I did really like the live version they did in 1999 in Paris, that is in rotation on YouTube.

Miley has got the voice, stage presence, and everything it takes to be her own "star" .... and she 'twerked" on national TV! Saw it here first fwiw and the only song I've seen MC do and recognized is "Jolene"

Rock on girl .... you've got "IT" and some don't even get it ... and you don't even GAF about 'em either

She looks like a vandalised bus shelter.

She is really pretty no doubt about that, I will never complain when a pretty girl wants to tramp it up.

I used to donate to her homeless youth charity then she went woke with it singling out only certain types of homeless and lost interest in donating to it.
