Just an FYI:  Deep in the backing vocals — especially with the headphones at 11 — you can hear her say, "Do you get the gist of the song now?"

You know, not that I would do that over and over and over and over until I heard it.  No, of course not.  

WHOA!  I finally went out and bought a couple Poe songs including Hey Pretty (Drive-By 2001 Mix)  Hottttttttttt!!!!!!!! 

(might play for the misses!)

WOW!  I need oven mitts to handle this when the CD arrives ....

It's an improvement on her original version, and that was pretty damn good. This cranks the sexiness up a big notch. Poe, you can predate on me any time :o). 9 from the smitten Nottingham jury.

Close call. I liked this song - but now I see how stupid I was not to have recognized what your genius so instantly spotted. I can only hope that one day I will have the ability to form my opinions on my own. Oh, blessed day, In the meantime, all I can say is 'Thanks, Copymonkey! You saved my ass'.

1) This is a great album, but get rid of that damned spoken word thing.

2) He's a great writer, but get rid of that damned distracting musical background - just go read "House of Leaves" and get your mind blown.

Yay!!! This is by far the best version of this song, IMO.

That's her brother reading his poetry, btw. I think the blend works perfectly. Best to listen to this song in your car at 2am.

....the longest un-zipping of my life.......         Yep.

There are probably others I'm also forgetting. Rex Harrison maybe?

It is actually called Hey Pretty Drive by 2001 mix

I like this. But I gotta admit that if Poe weren't hot, I might not like this as much.

While some here think this sounds like garbage, to me it sounds like Garbage.  An 8.

I just finished House of Leaves and I gotta say that was a great book! I heard about it from this very forum....
I hope I never find the ftairs......or maybe I do....

Ugh. Why does Poe feel that she has to sound so "important" and "artistic"? I can't believe more of y'all don't see right through this chick. If she just sang—it might be allright, but it's always gotta be SO deep.

In the words of Pete Townshend: It's a put-on. 

I have this CD and I would swear I have never heard that song before now.

Also the symbol for the Texas Longhorns.

Sorry; songs are sung, not spoken. This is prose, perhaps.

Only William Shatner can get away with speaking a song.

The banana is definitely throwing the horns, which as far as I know is the symbol for rocking out throughout the US. Dunno about elsewhere.

Puuurrrrrrrrrr
I bought this CD because I heard it on RP and loved it, and then some jerks stole my car sterio and all my CD's in the car (of course this one) .......so I love hearing this right now!

LOL

I Vote for Poe!

The "non-spoken" version is much better, but this is still great.

Slightly oily folds...
