"I think Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse have killed Xenomania style pop, in the same way Britpop killed off Take That."

(I paraphrase)

Let's talk about....THE ZEITGEIST of BRITISH POP.

Tunstall is not boring. Take that back! She may not get into bitch rants about fellow pop stars (actually, she did slate Dido a couple of years back), but she has an interesting background (living with an adoptive family in the Scottish highlands), and she gives interesting interviews - I know, I've interviewed her, on subjects ranging from disability to growing up in the outdoors (without television or even music) to American boarding schools (she attended one). She also regularly talks proudly and publicly about her large lesbian following.

I will not tolerate any Tunstall-bashing in this community. If you must bash female pop singers, pick on Joss Stone or Corinne Bailey Rae!
