message: To me she sounds like big lyric soprano.
Listen to rene flemings jazz album - sounds a bit the same - and shes lyric Soprano (but was Mezzosoprano in her early years) - - perhaps Simone is in between Mezzo and Soprano - many lyric Sopranos are thought to be a Mezzo because of full dark timbre - but thats sign for big lyric normally
Commons has many images for to put in this article. --Ille extremadurensis (talk) 18:15, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The statement Her favorite song to perform is "Reprendo mai più" by Emma Shapplin is no longer supported by reference [3] http://home.wanadoo.nl/seventh.son/simone.htm since the link is no longer available. I couldn't find any reference of such preference other than websites that copied her biography from Wikipedia. Should this statement be dropped?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Diogo86 (talk • contribs) 23:10, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Definitely no. See Wikipedia:Link rot#Keeping dead links. A broken reference is the equivalent of a book that's out of print. In this case, archive.org has copies too. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 10:50, 16 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Broken references 

message: From the article: "[…] makes it hard for the listener to classify her into one particular fach."
I only knew "Fach" as a German noun, meaning box, tray or shelf. I can't find any reference for that word on being used in English. Could any native English speaker confirm that anyone could understand what is meant here? Is this word really used in the English language? --Feeela (talk) 22:26, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey, ever heard of Wikipedia? Ever thought of entering Fach into the search box? Like duh! --Florian Blaschke (talk) 10:36, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

message: Simone said she was wrong for years and she's a soprano, not a mezzo-soprano. In this moment the only source is an online interview with Simone on the official youtube channel of Epica (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Td1NK_fi6M). Looking forward to more canonical sources, should not overreach citing antiquated and outdated sources.
P.S. are we sure that AllMusic is a reliable source about voices and singers? And about metal music? In the italian Wikipedia we decided to exclude that site as a source for articles about metal and singing because AllMusic mainly deals with other genres (especially pop and r'n'b) and it's not an expert in singing.
