I think the sister that died was the main singer

She is a good singer but that's very surprising due to the amount of cigarettes she smokes...

To me she has a hard voice.
However she did really get into that task.
I wouldn't want to listen to her singing really.

That was what I was thinking but...

Maybe it's this, and she's affected her voice with years of smoking.

I thought she sang ok...I thought Bianca was almost better. It's like the Spice girls Mel C was the only one who could sing well and raw...the others needed music to hide their weakness and this is the case of many singers. Listen to Jedward sing without background music...their quality is equally as weak.

i thought she held the notes in tune but she wasnt great and yes her sister was the lead singer in the band

Yeah Bianca was pretty good, did I read somewhere that she'd auditioned for X Factor at some point or did I dream that?

Bernadette Nolan was the Nolan Sisters.....the others were sweet but to be honest they were carried along by their sister.....but it worked well cause they were related so the joint harmony fitted perfectly with the lead singer....they were hugely successful and made some really brilliant tracks ....' Gotta Pull Myself Together ' and ' Spirit Body and Soul ' being two of them. Colleen only appears on record sleeves and in film footage from 1980....before that she was still at school

She is worse than many karaoke singers . I can even sing better than her and I am rubbish.
Coleen got lucky having a band to enter without having to audition as she would not have been accepted to one on her own merit.

I have heard Bernie her sister sing on youtube clips and she did have a good voice.
