Is it just me, or is the below statement just a tad creepy?  {#Think}

A Denver buddy sent me the annual KBCO Christmas recording — tunes done live in their studio throughout the previous year — and Ms. Case is on there.  Somehow that lead me to an on-line interview she did with a Canadian radio guy and ... she was witty, erudite, and laughed a lot.

Quite a contrast to the lyrics and album art for this.

What a voice.  I hope that all the dark material is sourced from an artistic aesthetic and that she is not another brilliant, but tortured soul.

Love this song...  love Neko Case...

Neko Case gave away her beloved 1967 Mercury Cougar for a charity raffle on March 18, 2011 to benefit 826 National, which provides free tutoring and literacy programs to more than 24,000 students in eight cities nationwide...

Why does EVERY Neko Case song have reverb? She's akin to a photographer whose every picture is gaussian blurred.

Neko was the last artist on my "bucket list" to see, but we kept missing her, then finally got to see her live in Raleigh last month.  Wow - it was pretty clear that she throws everything she's got into the songs, and didn't a note. The banter with Kelly Hogan between songs was pretty entertaining as well.  I left loving Neko more than ever.   I'll be there if she comes back again.
 
Neko was in Raleigh this summer? Arg! 

Serves me right for working too much . . .

That is how I felt before seeing her in concert in my city. But I walked away after the show thinking that her range is quite limited: Although she has an arresting voice when you first listen to it, almost all of her songs were approached and delivered in the same fashion. I won't see her again, but hearing her sing a song one-off is still a thrill.

Mr. Broussard has the same effect on me; Ms. Case makes me sit still and think and wonder and dream.  Either is wonderful when the mood is right.

Actually, I think you've touched on something here. I hadn't really considered it, but there are some pretty powerful women out there making music in various genrés.

I better shut up now.
 
Stevie Ray brought it full force. But there was nothing in his being to indicate he was 'most of the guys'. There's precious little evidence to indicate he was actually from this planet, but hey.

Jeff Buckley was a raw nerve, exposed for all the world to see. Not sure where that puts him on your scale though.

But you make a good point: where is the next, oh I don't know, Frank Sinatra? Where is the next testosterone-infused ladies man? Like Bob Mitchum, or Deano? Is the question even relevant?

I LOVE the powerful women making music today, and yesterday too. Neko and Patty spring to mind (lots of play here), but go back to Billie, Willie Mae, Ella, Eartha, Mahalia, Josephine...

How about Morrison, Dylan, Cash, Waits, et al.? But then, males of recent generations have not been directed towards traditional notions of masculinity. 

I'm all for equality of the sexes. But this has, curiously, resulted in emasculation on one extreme and hypermasculinity on the other, rather than the elimination of sexism.

I speak as a fool, of course. I'm not actually old enough to understand what I'm talking about.
