Too "made" for singing a song called "fake"...

Well, she co-writes all her own songs, so she's not all that 'made'...
I always think if Skye were four years younger and English, she'd be Alex Roots.

Well firstly "co-writing" is in a lot of cases as synonym for changing some words on a song someone else wrote. The real skill is to write music to lyrics that reflect you, co-writing often (not always) means someone writes music, someone else writes lyrics and the artist only gives his opinion on both and changes some words to suit his/hers style better.
With "made" I also mean the image she fashions.

Well, she's not the most unconventional dresser, from what I can tell. Have to admit that. But then, she's a Pop/Rock chick, so there's kind of a limit if you intend to sell records...

^ Yeah but her played image is rather obviouslly made and not a reflection of her character. Good image is underlining your natural personality, a "made" image is what works at the moment and what your manager/agent tells you to approach.
Have that conversations a lot lately...

Fun for people who know how I actually am  There were many discussions recently... about image... but firstly, I´m not 16 anymore and I don´t want to act like it either and I´m not emo/wannabepunk/trendy enough to care about current "in" things. I´ll stay very Kitty - geek chic & sightly popmetal (yes, beware of the term PopMetal!) |

Could be worse. I still want to yell at people when some idiot mentions 'Pop Punk' like that's even possible! ;D

That term isn't exactly counter intuitive in itself, but the way they implement it... "Look, it's an RPG because you get XP and level up!" Übereil |

Autotune scares me...
songwriting is alright
but singingwise, sound designers use autotune for 2 reasons: 1. someone must sound "spacey" (Cher "I Believe") or 2. someone has not enough volume in his voice (or is breathy) - make your own desicion what the point was here.
Anyway, liked it slightly more then the rest of what you posted of her.
