A voice reminiscent of Chryssie Hynde.  Great stuff.  What
an original style, nevertheless.

I am stunned at the mediocre rating this album receives here. I feel like people posting remarks such as the one below must be listening to another album. Every track is a gem and the Haunted theme is used brilliantly. It's a rare album that holds together as a whole to the point that it gains from being played consecutively, but this one does. So fie on all you naysayers.

This is so far the only song by her I haven't muted immediately. Mostly 'cause it sounds a little like the vastly superior Shirley Manson.

I used to listen to this whole album non-stop in early 2001. Such a great concept album — I wish she did more solo work.

Besides her compelling voice, she's assembled one kick-ass band. Love this CD.

I believe this is due to disputes with her record company, though those could have been cleared up by now, I'm not sure. I know that it's always a pleasure to hear her, whether it's on one of her own songs, or with another group (Delirium, Conjure One, etc.).

If anyone's got info on her, please pass it on. Last I heard, she'd set up her Myspace page and started posting updates. The last one was over a year ago, but she was tracking new stuff. I've emailed her/her Myspace folks and got no reply.

Hah! I asked a bunch of my friends if this song didn't sound like Shania Twain when it came out and all I got was a bunch of blank stares :) Glad to see that, if I'm crazy, I've at least got a bit of company.

And I second those who suggest that, once you spend some time with this album as a thematic whole (assuming you do that sort of thing) you'll actually dig it. That being said, this was never one of my favorite songs on the album (those would tend towards Walk the Walk and Not a Virgin).

I actually think what I like about the album has less to do with the songs than the atmosphere she succeeds in creating.

The whole album is great, one of the best I've heard in years, and needs to be listened through from start to finish.

But it's cool to have one of the tunes pop up here.

Did you really listen to it, or were you doing something else? I loved the sound, got the disc, then read the liner notes. Now I like it more.

Admittedly, I don't think that this is one of the better tracks on the disc.

Poe rules.

Poe is a person, not a group.

This album is one of the best albums of the past 20 years - I'd put it in the top 10. If you don't care for her voice, that's one thing, but the music on this disc is simply incredible, original, and only Poe could have made this record.
