In reply to: alex from long beach 's message, "REGINE VS LANI FAN ATTITUDE" on 16:38:04 02/06/03 Thu

As I see it, the demand for diva-esque music is inelastic. Therefore, competition is fiercer. Unfortunately, I think Lani's value positioning in the beginning of her career was one of "I'm better than Regine". That's the reason why Lani's fans don't tire of comparing her with Regine. It's the way they market Lani's talent.

My advice: stop comparing yourself with Regine. Stop singing songs Regine is famous for even if it's clearly not in your vocal range. I was a big fan of Lani in her early days, when she was singing those songs that are really made for her voice and range. Now...I don't know. Though recently, she's making improvements. Lately, she's singing songs that are really for her.

Outstanding advice there, Gandalf
And good news. They are following it.
Yep, we believe they have been surfing this board
and now are making MAJOR changes to Lani's -
whatever..

And I'm talking big changes.
So keep making good suggestions here, fans
Regine's distractors are reading and learning.
Believe it or not.
