Jun 2, 2008 - I am very pleased by June Anderson's generous comments. In the early days the young Anderson was insecure about living in the shadow of Dame Joan, and resented comparisons. Now, she understands how unique Joan's voice was, and how solid the technique has to be in or to sing a role like Lucia for 30 years.

Jul 5, 2008 - - why on earth did she dye her hair Orange? - i like what Anderson says that a proper Lucia must arrive at mad scene after all that singing with fresh voice

Jul 20, 2008 - I haven't got the DVDs. Why you are lying again and again? You notified me of sending those DVD-1962,1972 Sutherland video in 4, May. Two months later, I still waited to receive those DVDs. But again 3 weeks later, I cannot tolerate your intended lie. Send those files. If you don't take any reaction, I will go my own gait.

Aug 29, 2008 - No, it is worth an incalculable fortune that cannot be counted even in zillions. I mean, NOBODY can sing like Dame Joan these days just like nobody could sing like her in her days. We are yet to see a singer who could.
