Damn, she could sing.

What a voice. Flavour, depth, control - sensual, playful, confident. She sounds completely inside the song. So warm you can almost touch.

But I’m sorry: the production on this track drives me mad. There are too many distractions.

To my ear, the saxophone and clarinet don’t accompany her. They keep crowding her. Almost arguing with her. I just want them to get out of the way and let the vocal and the song breathe.

I’d love to hear the original mix stripped back, with those parts removed, and rebuilt by someone with a bit more empathy for what she’s doing. There's a heart beat waiting to be found behind that collage.

Perhaps you have to be a Muso to hear it.

Is it just me? Or do others hear this kind of musical impatience in some of her other backing tracks too?

Such a beautiful performance. I just wish the arrangement served it better.

The thing that has always bothered me is the apparent obsession with reducing the number of shots witnesses were said to have heard. In a world where high-powered rifles, scopes, and even silencers already existed, why was the official focus so heavily directed at limiting the shot count?

To me, the answer seems obvious: the fewer shots, the easier it becomes to contain the evidence within the bullets they claimed to have found, and the easier it is to preserve the lone-gunman theory. But once the extent of the wounds appeared to exceed that bullet count, the story suddenly needed the so-called “magic bullet” to bridge the gap.

What pushes this even further for me is the “magic bullet” itself. We are expected to believe that a bullet later turns up on a hospital gurney in near-pristine condition, after supposedly causing all that damage, and that this is simply accepted as normal evidence. To me, that is where the story stops sounding like an investigation and starts sounding like narrative control.

If that bullet was so crucial to preserving the lone-gunman theory, then its convenient discovery raises an obvious question: who was already in place to monitor, manage, and shape the evidentiary trail in real time? Because once that bullet appears, it does more than fill a gap - it rescues a failing theory.

That is why I struggle with the official version. The “magic bullet” does not resolve the contradictions - it exposes them. Its condition, its timing, and its role in explaining wounds that seem to exceed the bullet count make it look less like honest evidence and more like a manufactured solution.

Am I wrong to think that the pristine gurney bullet, by itself, is already evidence that the case was being manipulated?
