Wow, has she mellowed.

I bought the CD with "To Bring You My Love" on it years ago, and it sounded like the ravings of a madwoman. I liked it, but it still sounded like a crazy person.

One of my favorite songs...and one that speaks to me more than any right now. Thanks, RP.

Your sets today have been fantastic. You're helping me make it.

It is so irritating when the high register and the low register sound like two different people and there is no good transition across the middle. Also can't stand breathy singing. Breathiness is just plain bad. That's in the high register. The low register is more talking than singing.

Maybe there are actually two singers?


Are you trying to sound musically educated?

Yes, this is a great album... and maybe even more enjoyable than her earlier albums.

High IQ means that you are good at doing IQ tests.

Don't get the U2 Reference. I think if you don't like something, you tell yourself it sounds like U2 to feed your obsession.


I think you can tell the musical taste by the songs rated by Tux... SAY NO MORE!! Rated stuff I wouldn't care to listen to ever again - in my lifetime a "10"...

And what's wrong with sounding like U2 anyway? The Edge has more talent in his little piggy toe than most people have in their whole body.

IQ and Music do not necessarily have anything to do with one another.

So what if she does sound like U2? That's not a bad thing if it's true. I would think PJ likes U2 since she opened for them on the Elevation tour in 2001.
