I think this would be Fiona's last album.

Are those wasabi peas in the cover? I bet those are organic!
 

More like orgasmic.

Quite a narcissistic song, I somehow doubt she was being sarcastic. Fuck narcissism, stop singing about it.

Okay, so I used to like this song a wee bit, but after hearing it this time the thing that STILL stands out and irritates me the most is Fiona's inability to say the "ra" part in extRAordinary.

Honestly, all I could hear yet again was extordinary machine over and over. It was like a splinter in my mind. Arghhh {#Arghhh}

This is not as good as the version in the CD I have (official release in Israel), so I'd only give it a 9.

This is annoying.

  I like her music. I also like the fact that she writes her own music, and is in the studio the whole time it's produced to make sure it comes out the way she wants it to. I respect that. Whether you like her music or not, at least she's true to her art.

Or the see-through kind which you can get in one of those expensive detox clinics in desert CA. In this case the placebo (effect) flows right past your eyes!

Next time you're in LA, head to a little club called Largo. If you're lucky enough to be there on a night Ms Apple gets up, I guarantee you'll be blown away.
