My grandparents loved her.

They had an album of her singing all Italian songs.

I grew up listening to and singing those songs.

It's been a long time since I've heard her name!

only thing that shocked me was what she has done to her lips; I don't think I would have known who she was if they had not introduced her by name

Her nose was a mess, too.

I ain't watched the factor yet tonight but I DVR all his shows. Will check it out as Connie was always one of my favorite singers. Her voice and the late Karen Carpenter were ones I could listen to for hours. Soft and smooth they were years ago.

Me too...but you can barely understand Connie now...her speech is very strange now...as though her mouth has trouble moving.
