Anything I've seen her in - the Chess concert and the ALW 60th Birthday Concert, she was very mediocre.

Think her voice is good enough for belty pop musicals, but she lacks the technical finesse to pull off Lloyd Webber or Benny & Bjorn

Oh I agree she wasn't good in the Chess concert, which is also why I was pleasantly surprised by her performance tonight.  She pulled off a very good What I Did For Love and Somewhere, which although not Lloyd Webber aren't exactly bubblegum pop.

Yes, I would agree with nearly all you said. I feel privileged to have seen her, and at very close range. My only negative was the person taking our photos with Idina after said she got a good picture, but it never took. So sad.
Great evening though

Awh that's a pity.  No-one was allowed photos with her last night, which is fair enough as she was signing for about 300 people, if not more!
