Posted: 6/4/08 at 1:22amI think I could listen to this woman all day. I wish there were more live recordings of her on iTunes. I think I like her live recordings better than her CDs. Her voice is so refreshing. I've been listening to the live recording of "Ghost of Corporate Future" over and over for the last 2 or 3 days--such a great, cute song.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 1:45amI borrowed Begin to Hope from my sister the other day. I like some of the songs, but I'm not crazy about her overall. I will listen to her a couple more times though (I was cleaning when listening to it, which may have something to do with it)
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 2:04amI have been listening to her song, "Ode to Divorce", over and over, such a haunting song.
Fear no more the heat o' the sun,
Nor the furious winter's rages;
Thou thy worldly task hast done,
Home art gone and ta'en thy wages:
Golden lads and girls all must,
As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 10:34amI'm post-break-up right now, and "Rejazz" is helping.
I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!

I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 10:54amIt's nice to see someone with talent and a bit of vision become popular these days.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 6/4/08 at 11:07amI think I'm the only person in the world who hasn't fallen in love with The Call. Maybe I just need it on my iPod so I can listen to it in my car. I'd so get it... if it weren't album only on iTunes. Lame.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 1:22pm^ on iTunes, certain songs are only available if you buy an entire album. You can't download "The Call" all by itself, you have to buy the whole Prince Caspian soundtrack.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 11:54pmI love all that I've heard of her. I had know her from her song Samson, and went to see Narnia yesterday and was really surprised to hear a song of hers in the movie. It was a great song, great movie, and I'm addicted to that song now, The Call.

Love her.
I saw her in concert this past year. She was amazing live. She thrives on performing live. She was so good live that it makes her recorded material almost sound sort of bad, which it is not by any means.
