In a world full of lesser singers, Tobin's 24-carat voice is seriously undervalued. The way she sings "I was born like this I had no choice /I was born with the gift of a golden voice" (on Tower of Song) lacks Cohen's weary shrug, but adds a bittersweet irony he couldn't have imagined. She can take you from Leonard Cohen to Miles Davis in six minutes from Coltrane back to Dylan in the same time. There's a thrilling, dark timbre to Tobin's voice that moves you like no other singer. This is not quite the perfect account of the most troubling of all Verdi's masterpieces - Leo Nucci's Iago is too insipid for that - but it conveys the power of Domingo's stage presence and the sheer dramatic intelligence of Muti's conducting. Placido Domingo is the finest Otello of our time, and Riccardo Muti is as good as any Verdi conductor around, so their partnership at La Scala, in a naturalistic production by Graham Vick, was guaranteed to be memorable. The second showcases various wacky food advertising and the third has loads more treats, including the Odeon Cinema club singalong special, with bouncing ball.

Her first solo album is a shop window for the most vivid voice in commercial R&B, and despite a bias toward mid-tempo love noodlings, it's grand fun.
With a first name like hers, surnames were always going to be superfluous, but by officially dropping the Knowles, Beyonce has signalled her arrival as diva royalty.
