I think about that too. But then again the girls are pretty good and, for the most part Sting has been so spectacularly mediocre since "Dream of the Blue Turtles." |

There's something about her voice that kinda grates on a nerve after a while.

I've liked nearly everything Aimee's done, including her songs from Til Tuesday. This may not be one of her best but it still beats some songs from lesser artists.

Funny that the one singer/songwriter whom I respect the most is among the most underrated. I'll just have to say more good things about her to make up for the lack of recognition from the music industry.  |

Got to play the tambourine and bongos on stage with her last year in Boston. Have loved her since Til Tuesday. Still totally real and genuine in her music and self.

I really like this song of hers. The slower songs on The Forgotten Arm are the most interesting, because that's when she breaks out of the live-sounding guitar/piano mold.
I can see how someone would get tired of her familiar style and motifs. The last album sounded really samey after a while. But she's still the master of her chosen niche.

No, I said "musicians."
This is argument people keep trying to use when I mention that there's a select group of musicians that Bill likes and, thus, hammers us to death with. They (even Bill, in one response) try to bring up "Song suchandsuch is only played a max of five times a week, so you're wrong about saturation bombing."
Well, Song suchandsuch might only BE played five times a week, but that doesn't stop MULTIPLE songs by the same few artists from be played every day. Listen for two hours and you WILL hear Coldplay, Natalie Merchant, Mark Knophler or David Byrne. There is a small group of people who get played five times a day. With the astounding amount of material to choose from, NOBODY should be played 4 or 5 times a day.
Hell, the KINKS are in heavy, multiple times per day rotation here. Played more than the Beatles.
So if you're going to attempt to counterpoint me, get it right. |

In spite of the vocal minority, you should check out the overall rating. Pretty high at 6.9 considering all the naysayers. |
