Why the fuck would you care about a polished voice? Turn on any radio station and every fucking thing is manicured bollocks, even a lot of today's indie. The appeal here is that she seems like a normal person delivering great tunes,and the emotion she puts into that delivery.
There's no question she doesn't have a fantastic voice, but this live version is no different from the studio version. There's no masking. The beauty of her music is the lyrics. Plenty of singer/songwriters sound like hell but pull it off. She deserves cred
Liz Phair is a great lyricist and extremely original...if you're looking for another pretty voice, listen to Celine Dion where you won't be expecting anything more. Too bad Liz is taking such a long hiatus...

Liz, definitely a mediocre voice at best, and that's being a bit generous. 'Studio magic' is obviously not available at a live performance, and she needs some magic to work for her vocals to work.
poor woman...she doesn't know whether she's a punk or a pop star

If people are complaining about Liz Phair's vocal abilities, they obviously don't understand the appeal of Liz Phair. :)

Liz is awesome - amoung the best. This is distintive sounding classic rock.

I agree, all you have to do is listen to her first couple albums to know that her strong selling point was never her "beautiful" voice.

her voice fits her lyrics...Exile in Guyville is a revolution in music.
