GREAT - (daughter of) BORIS!
Quite a likeable tune I believe.  Personally, I seldom like recordings with over-polished, professional vocals, or ones that seem to be trying too hard to "go somewhere" or come off as "unpredictable".  So, some young woman goes out and records a personal song that may sound like some other artists; it's not necessarily going to make me go out and buy her recordings, but then again, I probably wouldn't buy any of the recordings made by the "music authorities" who posted here either.
Oh wait, there aren't any of those recordings.

Oh Boris...
What a cool grand-daughter you have!

Good lead into Van Morrison.  I am patiently awaiting this song.

I hear traces of Natalie Merchant, both in her delivery and in the song arrangement.

He's in Rehab with Amy Winehouse.  Wonder if this little Red Shirt is on one of his Lists?

Meh. It doesn't make my ears bleed. I can dig it.

I thought it sounded nice.

I like the Rickenbacker and keyboard - in fact the whole arrangement - shame the vocals aren't stronger. Otherwise a really cool arangement - sure I'll like it more on second hearing.
Actually, I think it would work great as an instrumental. The vocal is more of a distraction for me than anything.

yup - thought the same thing. Not a bad tune though.....

Does nothing for me.

Is Deb Pasternak a psuedonym for Natalie Merchant??
:nodhead: Like it :nodhead:

Sure, if the food turns out to be pretty tasty.
She sounds like she's trying to channel Edie Brickell but being tutored by Aimee Mann

I thought it was Lucinda Williams when I heard this song. But what do I know? I know that "alot" is two words: a lot. I like this song a lot.

Hmmm...can something be “very generic?” I’m not sure. Anyway, this song is very generic.
Very generic.
Not bad :daisy.gif:
It's nice as hell to hear this lady's voice, having originally heard her years and years ago in a small coffeehouse called the Iguana Cafe in North Hollywood. As I though, her musical skills and vocal talents have only matured over time. The soulfulness I heard then has blossomed into a fine singer now.

Nice tune.. Sounds like a Sarah Harmer song, and, in fact, the harmonizing voice sounds like Sarah.. Anybody know?
I'm pretty sure Deb sings her own harmonies on the recording. FYI the album is available on her website (and you can email her with questions) www.debpasternak.com

"PMS", "Tampons" (elsewhere, complete with a pic, for cryin' out loud), consistently snotty sophomoric misogeny plastered all over women soloists, one might conclude that you've got a problem.

Great song
I love this song. It makes me think about how life must have been like for my grandparents when they were first married in the early 1920s, and setting up a homestead in the Montana prairie. They're in love, the future is wide open, and they're scared as hell.

Funny, I was thinking this was a new Lucinda Williams tune....

Biologically speaking, these ladies would need an additional ingredient. Perhaps David Crosby...

I love this song- great lyrics, really fine groove, beautiful, bluesy voice. I highly recommend this CD too..... Thanks for playing it!
That\'s a most excellent song! Enjoyed how smooth and clear it was.
