These are just about the worst I'd heard from her on this tour, and she had her definite ups and downs with it. I am happy to see her performing again after a long hiatus, but her voice seems to have good and bad nights.
Thank you Siouxsie. Glad to see you giving it your all. Hope you schedule more US dates in the future. If I was in Europe I would come to one of your gigs. I grew up listening to you in the 80s along with DM, the CURE and others. All the best m8.
I have no problem with her looking like a 66-year old woman (as it appears some people do), in fact I think she looks pretty good for her age. However, I do have a problem with her voice because it seems like she had not gone through the necessary preparation to ensure the quality of her voice (which I know that it won't be the same as during her prime, but being older and committed to touring, one has to make extra effort, otherwise it will look very unprofessional).
I’ve been listening to Siouxsie for decades, and sure, in my youth I thought the same thing. However, I don’t personally know what Janet-that’s Siouxsie-has been through that has changed her voice, but I know that we humans do change over time. I appreciate her being here to entertain me still. Her voice has always been uniquely her’s; Siouxsie’s writings are brilliant, and her moxie is as strong today as it was 40 years ago. I believe most fans-like myself-aren’t here for a pretty voice, anyone can fake it like Britney. I’m here for substance from a single artist that isn’t manufactured by other talented nameless people, just the one artist, Siouxsie.
Huge fan as well, but I have to agree with you. Siouxsie often spoke of protecting her throat, and thus her voice, from air conditioning, smoking, etc. But in this performance, it's clear she has not kept her voice in top form. To tour with silvery grey hair is absolutely fine by me... but to sing live without the necessary preparation is unpardonable. That said, the high notes that are integral to 'Kiss Them for Me' make it a song that was never easy for her to perform live. And that leads me back again to the preparation necessary to perform live after such a lengthy hiatus.
I absolutely love Siouxsie (and the Banshees too) and have been a fan for decades, but, yeah, this is a train wreck vocally. She looks nice, and her charm and stage presence are intact. But without the voice, there's not much point.
Whatever happened to siouxsie?is she ill? She looks like the old lady from the movie, ,titanic, bloody hell, she has always been an icon of sleek elegance and ageless presence, I'm baffled, is she channeling patty Smith? With due respect, miss Smith only needs one accessory,,,,a broomstick and there she flies,,,not a good look to have, unless you are visiting the 21st century, from Salem.Massachusetts
She was around at the beginning of the Punk movement! That was nearly 50 years ago. I have mad respect for Siouxsie, and hey, we are ALL getting older...but what a truly horrible thing to write. Ya shoulda kept it to yourself.
She’s English and aging as any normal 66 year old would do. She’s not the type to try and make herself look younger by having plastic surgery and pumped up
A little more respect is called for mate. All you can say Robert is have you taken a look at Iggy Pop?? At some point we are no longer what we once were in our youth. Siouxsie is an icon of anti-establishment "true" 1970's punk. She held her own when compared to any of the bands of that era. Hell, most of those bands don't even perform anymore or all dead. Where is your next gig? Be careful or we'll all show up and comment on how "off" you are.
Vocals are brutal

Who cares about the vocals when you’re a legend and a ROCK star 💫
This isn’t Whitney Houston. I’m just glad to see her rocking out still
This is beautiful! Thank you 😊

All of the affection and appreciation for Siouxsie from the audience is wonderful to see, but she was not even close with the vocals.
Aging is cruel and unfair!
You are right
Aging steals your life away
No dudaria en ir a un concierto de siouxie porque soy fan de la banda, pero me da pena que ya no sea igual su voz . El tiempo hace su trabajo

Quel massacre 😮
Time to retire ☹️
I wish i hadn't saw/heard this. I'm a fan, but IMO, it's just bad. 🤷♂
Terrible!....and that's from a Banshees devotee from their inception, but I have to be truthful 👊
same here its a shame to see a hero fall, but the sheep will say omg its the best ever

hard to watch. you need some non-yes men to give you the upsetting news. Leave us wanting more, not begging for you to stop

FCS m8, she is 66yrs old. Not making any excuses for her at all. I wasn't expecting a 22yr old Siouxsie.

Oh dear ...
