This reminds me of Bjork, also. I thought it might be her at first, but didn't think the quality of the song was up to her usual standard. |

Heh heh! Very good. But good song too!
Edit--A quick google notes she is rumored a finalist for a Nobel Prize. And following Patti Smith, has been awarded the French medal " Commander of Arts and Letters"

I bought 2 of their CDs after hearing them/her on RP. My new favorite band! The tunes played on RP aren't their best tracks - must hear their other material - it's quite good! I am uploading a few of my favorites under LRC so hopefully they will hit the playlist.

A native Texan who now resides in Los Angeles, pop/rock singer/songwriter Matson Belle isn't your average singer. In addition to music, Belle was a finalist on the popular TV show Survivor and has starred in the feature film Hangman (after being discovered by the film's director at a coffee shop). But music is her true love several of her songs have appeared on independent movie soundtracks and she's performed with Andy Summers of the Police. In addition, Belle held the top spot on SpinRecords.com as favorite artist for 26 weeks in a row, and was one of six singer/songwriters selected by AFTRA for a music industry showcase. Belle's music combines harps, flutes, saxophones, and violins over groovy dance tracks.

Just stand under the shower head a tad longer and you won't have this problem.

Maybe it's because RP plays it so often and for some reason I catch it everytime. |

Anyway, you can't get a license to sound like that unless you're from Iceland. If your from Texas, its just weird. |

Wonder if the album name "Goodbye Juggernaut" is a play on the World Party album name "Goodbye Jumbo." Probably not -- it ain't worth parodying the obscure.

Do we have a version of that emoticon with actual splitting sides?
Like this song, but now I can't stop hearing the alternate lyrics. :D |

Add the Eminence Front-style keys to the list of recycled parts of this song.
By the way, the bio on the Matson Belle website says the singer was a Survivor finalist. I wish that didn't affect my hearing of the song.

not as "cute" as the hawaii song, which is odd, since this it's almost melodically identical.
