I'm not into Norah Jones or Madeline Peyroux
In case the mention of the name was making anyone else wonder, it looks like Madeleine Peyroux has reappeared.
Oh, no, oh, no! Spontaneous poetic exclamations. Lord, spare me college boys in love.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I like Nellie McKay because even though she is obviously insane and occasionally very very annoying (that "rap" song? OMG KILL), I've never heard anything quite like her. She's very compelling.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
I'm sort of in Rio's camp in that I think I prefer McKay as a concept to the actual artist.
But I do love Peyroux. Anyone who can pull off both "J'Ai Deux Amours" and "Between the Bars" (although the piano line on the latter is a Bit Much) is OK by me.

I love McKay's song "I Wanna Get Married." It's hilarious and beautiful and totally weird all at once.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm surprised they play her on the radio enough to be annoying. What kind of station? (I don't listen to music on the radio much.)

Silence means security silence means approval
WXPN was playing it pretty regularly. They're online.
I think KCRW also was playing it.

Did I not already say I don't listen to music on the radio? I listen to public radio, and I used to listen to Hot 97. I don't understand your crazy moon talk!!!

I don't listen to music on the radio either. I listen to Howard Stern during the week, TAL on the weekends. That's about it. Otherwise I am totes DIY w/ my playlist and whatnot.
