If you like her sound, check out some of the work she has done with the Chemical Brothers, which was where I found her. It is obviously more "beat heavy," but she adds a very nice touch.

Interestingly enough, Johnny Marr of The Smiths and (sadly) Modest Mouse has co-credit on this track. I like Beth. Her singing is beautiful, and her prose is top-notch. What more can you ask for?  |

More turds, methinks. But Beth's still cocoa. Or butter. Maybe cocoa butter. Dang, your metaphor disease has afflicted me! Still a likeable tune. |

Beth's voice is syruppy but it has a sort of edge to it that I quite like. Solid tune.
