I try to avoid pitying Karen. She was sweet and supremely talented. She was also a human being, with all the same flaws and foibles as the rest of us. She made good choices, and she made bad ones, just as we all do.
But what I hear, in the instances we're discussing, is an overly mannered approach to singing lyrics. Why? I can only guess. But, even with Phil as producer, encouraging Karen to loosen up a bit, it still happened. And with her inner circle shrinking, there are fewer who were around then and can give us any insight.
