Been a long time fan since this album first came out, but I gotta say for some reason here she sometimes sounds like Pee Wee Herman....once you hear you can never unhear!
she might look good, but i'm sorry, she sounds like fucking shit.
she throws those stupid whiny trills in her forced vibrato because she genuinely can't sing. you can train a voice and edit it extensively in the mixing room but at the end of the day if they weren't born with a voice, then they weren't born with a voice.
@meetdiamond You kind of are hating. Gwen has a highly stylised voice, her wide vibrato is unique and not many singers could replicate her vocals if they tried. Just because you don't like her sound doesn't mean she was born without a voice.
Writing hits and having a unique voice are great talents to have. No matter how good your voice is, if it's not highly distinguished then you won't have success. It's not the 80s anymore where Brenda K Starr, Janet Jackson and Paula Abdul could have hits.
@EmilieSagae I respect your opinion. I'm being too hard on her, I know.
I just personally don't like her voice. And I'm not strictly stuck on super polished voices either (I mean, I like everything from rapsy female vocals to country-twang to classically trained opera singers). The vocals of certain artists just strike a nerve with me. It's too whiny for my taste. sounds like a sheep Baaaa-ing.
@meetdiamond I love Mariah Carey and I love Gwen Stefani, I find both of their voices phenomenal ! You cant say its "forced vibrato" when even the best singers cant force their vibrato and make it sound like THIS!
Hayley Williams reminds me of her. Its just the way Hayley moves around the stage. Pretty similar to Gwen. I suppose thats cause Hayley is apparently a big fan of hers (:
I remember seeing this back in 1996 and saying to myself "this chick is going to be famous!" 2 months later they came here to Australia, and I got to kiss Gwen on the hand at an album signing in Brisbane. She also posed with me for a photo...I remember putting me arm around her waist and pulling her in nice and tight, and then she placed her hand on my back...I can still feel that touch even today....Life is made up of little memories like I've just described :)
i luved & miss this gwen phase..it wuz & is the best period ever ever..nothing beats it besides the rocksteday period with platinum blonde veronica lake hair..damn she is the greatest vocalist//preformer of all time in my opinion but she's come alongway she's 40 and still putting it down better than any of these 20 0r 30 yr old popstars now a days...she's the best...luv her..:-)
THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!! I went to HS with these guys and was best friends with Tony's cousin when No Doubt finally went big. I remember this very night so well! Tony's cousin called me in a flourish and yelled, "Turn on Letterman! Tony's band is on right now!!" Many thanks for a great memory :)

The tempo is a bit faster than the way it's usually played. Maybe they had to squeeze the song into a shorter time slot.
