It seems that she records songs using "Bird" and acts using "Kathleen." Maybe she wants to keep these two facets of her career separate for some reason. |

Yup, totally. (I think I've even heard Bill play "Magic Smile" once or twice.) |

Sorry, detractors... I've liked her voice since BIll first turned me on to her several years ago. As for appearance, this album cover certainly makes her look hot.

Adam Lambert has been played exactly once, covering Johnny Cash, and the result was well over 50% "1" ratings, a record. And especially after his self-important stunt on the American Music Awards once is enough. As for this tune, it's nice enough, in a Lite FM sort of way. 7 |

Her best line on the West Wing was on Air Force 1 when Toby is worried about her flying because she is soooo preggers.He's mad because she is flying.
Toby Ziegler: You have twins in there! You're like a mini-van, how did you get in a seat?
Andrea Wyatt: Nuh-uh ladies, I saw him first!

That weird closed-throatedness . . . as if
there's cotton ball fluff lining her tongue.
Just sounds lazy, under-ennunciated, and unsung.
Way to shoot for a "Possession" vibe on the rhythm & production.
No, that's not formulaic by now, no, not at all.

This is a pleasant surprise: an actress who sings well and has a good song to go with it. Were it not for the acting history, she probably would have more credibility. I wonder if that affects the ratings.
