I agree. The way this is written, it makes it sound like TS is the main competition. That's scary.

However, I sometimes wonder if these critics ever hear the difference between the recorded singing and the live singing. If a critic has only heard TS sing via her recordings, she is good. Good doesnt mean that she has Carrie's vocal skills but her recorded songs are not bad. Like any singer, it's just a different sound that some like and some don't.

The music industry has many singers that are only good on their recordings. Some have had fantastic careers. So, when it comes to awards, do they judge on the recorded music or the live version or both. We don't know as it's a voters call. If you are a judge, and all you have heard is the recorded version, then you will have a different perspective. Some judges may not care what it sounds like live since it's the recorded version that sells and is played on radio.

It makes you think and it may be a factor that ends up causing upsets at award shows.

Carrie should win easily but when it comes to people voting, you never know.
