English singer, was the vocalist for a popular group called Yazoo in the 80's. She went on to have a large solo career.
She has some fame in the U.S., but I don't think she's super well-known Stateside because she's not the "type" 'we' want associated with pop music (Not skinny, older, doesn't just sing cute songs, and is actually involved in the creative process). |

English.. not skinny and doesn't just sing cute songs.. that could almost describe Adele (who was mentioned earlier in this thought-provoking thread). How in the world did she make it? Sure she's a great unique talent but the industry these days doesn't usually recognize (and reward) just that. Which reminds me how I miss Amy Winehouse- there was another individual singing stylist who could have made a lot more great records. She didn't need a lot of crazy vocal gymnastics either to convey meaningful expression. |

Amy Winehouse was a pretty unique talent in terms of modern day singers. I remember seeing her American TV debut on David Letterman. I just happened to switch the channel back over to his show after checking to see who was on Leno, & caught most of her doing "Rehab". Had never seen anything quite like her... I was so impressed, that I went to YouTube & searched for more of her stuff. The next day, I came here on CIH & posted a clip of her. I think just about everyone here was pretty unanimous in their appreciation of her talent. |

Well to be fair, Alison has lose a lot of weight:
This is her biggest, during her solo career (Yazoo was something of a punk-type thing, so her being chubby didn't play much into that) And this is from around her recent album. |

"Chubby"???
She had passed "chubby" a few miles back at that point & was heading straight towards "OMG it's coming this way!!!" Dawn French probably looked at her & said "Better her than me!!!" |

Yeah. I was really happy to hear about her weight loss. She gained a little back, but not much and it helps make her look more filled out and less saggy in some areas (a sad fact of weightloss after a certain age)
I will say, she still has some awesome knockers, though. |
