Don't you think her song "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" sounds like something the White Stripes would release?

I can see where you're coming from. Although her other songs don't sound like that.

The song title sounds a bit jack white

It's the same kind of thing with a different chord. Kathleen uses Bb(sus4/sus2) while KT uses D(sus4/sus2).

She ripped off PJ Harvey, cos she's a fan.

Sounds like she's trying to be Stevie Nicks in that tune. And someone else in each of her other songs. Sounds like a different person every track.

i think its good to be versatile. she's feeling her way into the scene... and she'll find her niche.

i think she's excellent. she was on a late night show some time ago and the use of the recorded sounds was brilliant. i don't know the hardware well, but my boyfriend who does said it was pretty impressive work. i think she's very talented.

Meh.
There's a difference between being able to sing different styles and putting on a different voice for particular songs. She's inconsistent. It's not a good thing if you can't identify a new song by an artist you're familiar with straight off.

Now that you mention it, the song "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" has a real PJ Harvey vibe to it. She's a fan alright.
.....but I'm sure KT would say she was 'influenced by' PJ, not that she ripped off her

On the 'Eye to the Telescope' album cover she is called 'KT' (no punctuation)
On her official website she is referred to as 'KT' (http://www.kttunstall.com)
On MCD, Ticketmaster, BBC and other official websites she is referred to as 'KT'

Where did you get 'K.T.' from? Are you sure you're not thinking of 'E.T.'?

b.t.w Swearing is so cool. :cool: Let me guess.....you are 15?

Just regarding the K.T. vs KT thing - I remember reading somewhere that KT doesn't actually stand for anything. Here it is...

http://www.kttunstall.com/press/telegraph.html

"KT does not actually stand for anything, by the way, it's just a text-generation way of spelling Katie".

Now this may imply that despite the flak received by the OP (or is it O.P.?), they may be right with the use of "Katie"
