 Three geniuses in a row...Tori, Strummer, Neko...OK four, Mark Knopfler...can you get your mind around the chain reactions that folks like this initiate?? History changing. |

Why bizarre? Some musicians are stuck like that. David Byrne is another example. If you hear him enough on this station one thing starts coming out — he sings almost entirely in the first person. It took 5 minutes to scan her lyrics and confirm what every song played on the station was already telling me. No man, what's bizarre is that people eat it up. |

It does seem like not her best effort. I like most of the songs, but they're all on the short side. Then the eternity of frogs croaking at the end is a bit annoying. It was novel for the first five minutes, but then I just wanted it to end. The first time I heard the frogs, we were in the car and had the sound down a bit. I thought we had a squeaky bearing going out in the front end. |

All I ever hear is the "red bells" song, it doesn't matter what song she is singing. Love the artwork cover!

Perhaps not such a minority. I personally find her voice annoying. |

Wow. You are in the minority. Most people think she has one of the most crisp and crystalline voices put to audio. |

I guess that could come from her former life as a punk rock drummer! |

Just saw her in concert 2 weeks ago. I was already a lifelong fan, now, well, I'm even more of a fan - if that's possible.

Best album cover of 2009 so far. One of my least favorite songs from the album, though.

Always a pleasure to have more Neko in my life.
