I'm not saying she isn't a good singer or not talented, but there is a point of over-doing things. Like when she sings a melodic line of 15 notes when one will do just fine. Soul, my a$$. I'd say 'Beautiful' is a good song, although it aint my cup of jabba.
Weezer is another good pop-rock band. I'm more of an alternative rock type guy though.
