I prefer to have playback, but sometimes, you can't have that under most circumstances. First, it is expensive because you need a playback operator and secondly, it threatens a lot of directors. I only watch my performance. I see what is necessary for me so that I can see it right at the moment and I can fix it. That appeals to me a great deal.
Oh, I'm a ballad queen for sure. . . I don't dig dance stuff very much but I seem to hit the charts with it. Go figure.
