^ I agree with your assessment for her vocals definitely. She seems to struggle with low notes a lot these days but her higher notes have recently been getting better.

Also, I have no problem whatsoever with people using backing tracks, especially if they are dancing. It only becomes a problem to me I think when the backtrack is turned up so loud that you can't even really hear the person actually singing - then it becomes hard to classify the performance as live I think.
