Done !    How lucky are you to have her visit three times.   She has only visited Ireland once, but at least I got to see her at last.

Hi everyone

I've voted for Madeleine again today.

If there's anyone out there who hasn't voted for Madeleine, get on line and vote.  The more votes the better. 

Let's show Madeleine how much she means to us by placing your votes on the Radio 2 website and look for the Jazz Artist of the Year link - go on there and place your votes.  Or alternatively follow the link mentioned above.

Happy voting.  This is Jonathan signing off.

Hey Guys

I was really chuffed to hear Madeleine recieved the international award at the BBC Jazz Awards - especially after Curtis Stigers got the Jazz Artist of the year.

You can hear the highlights on RADIO TWO - listen in. The International Award was the pelnutimute award. Have a listen. Ricky Lee Jones made an interesting slip of the tongue and refered to it as the ultimate award (at least that is what I heard) Fantastic Madeleine! Madeleine's speech was short and simply expressed thanks and her pride in the music and then she went on to sing Dance Me to the End of Love. I would have liked to hear her speak a little more, but boy did she sound great when she sang. That's more than good enough for me.

Here is the link.

I would like to echo what everyone else has written.

Congratulations to Madeleine on winning the International Award at the Jazz Awards  She definitely deserved it.  Although I wasn't here to see it, I felt it in my bones that she would win.

Very well deserved.  Woohoo!!!

This is Jonathan signing off till next time.
