If you follow her career, this resembles the Flaming Red sound a bit more. Definitely a unique voice.
How can you compare with those women with the trepidation in her tremolo?
Her soul is going along for the ride on this one.
Breathless emotion and finale.

Yeah, great poet. Writes great songs, she should let others do the performing. Her voice is really one of THE most irritating things I've ever heard.

I agree, but want to add this is the best way to keep music you love alive. Seek out bands at smaller venues and you may find it a more pleasing experience. Less pointing the mike out for the audience to sing, less adulation for every gesture, more effort to make it their best performance to date. I have kind of given up on the big venue shows, but still find these newer or smaller shows immensely satisfying.

Her new CD is released today (1/26/10).  I hope to hear some cuts on RP soon.

The local newspaper (Austin American Statesman) gave it a sort of lukewarm recommendation.  I haven't heard anything from it yet so will hold off before buying - but I probably will eventually.

Indeed. As someone who suffers from it, this song speaks to me in painful ways. Still, I love it.

I really like Neko, but for me it is no contest - Patty is far more talented.

 
There's room in my collection for both, no contemplation needed.

Not sure about this Sykes person, but he's probably right on the Neko... based on the latest releases from each, the Advantage is definitely on Neko's side.

Hey, if you know as a fact she was going to ask you to grab a beer and not to borrow your stapler, then she obviously still spoke to you. Anything after that isn't RP's fault.

If a chick doesn't want you for liking RP and PG, you're better off w/o her.
