Second half of 2002 to 2005 was her vocal peak and people really weren't complaining then. Problems started happening way back in 2006. I remember bringing up the discussion a lot back then that I thought her vocals sounded strained and were fading. They were at their aboslute worst in '08 and since then have gone up and down in quality. I actually don't think they are that bad now at least compared to 07-09. But not anywhere near as good as that awesome 03-05 period.
