I could not disagree more. Cathy Ann MacPhee, Christine Primrose, Jenna Cummings, Kathleen MacInnes, Mary Sandeman, Mary Ann Kennedy, Maggie MacInnes (to name but a few) and many more have their own styles and are likewise great singers. It would be a sad world if all singers were the same. Some are taller, some are wider, some are smaller, some have different accents but they all add something in their own way. Power power to their collective elbows!
@@UISTMAN59 I'm completely with Uistman on this. Personally I don't like Anne Lorne Gillies slightly 'classical' style as much as that of the traditional untrained singers. Christine Primrose is past her best, I think, but used to be fabulous. There's a wonderful range of different Gaelic singers and styles out there if you only look.

Cha b' e brògan tacaideach It wasn't tackety boots

gun cuir thu bhuat na bloidsearan till you take off those bobnail boots,
