As far far as I can recall, there’s no form of any remotely interesting backstory connected to this.  I picked this up in 2006, so I was pretty far removed from my songstress phase; I was roommates with this guy Hammer, who was a huge Atmosphere fan, and a bit of a metalhead, put me onto God Forbid!

Cant remember for the life of me what happened here.  It may have been a commercial I saw and said “dayum, good lookin!” And went and bought it. Whatever it was, I’m glad I did, cuz I am just buttery for this girl’s voice.  She’s got a lot of talent, but that wasn’t the hook.  It’s the softness, in that Norah Jones/ Aaliyah kind of way; there’s an obvious youth to it, a little girl singing love sings and such. ‘Put Your Records On’ I’m not particularly crazy about, just because of the poppiness of it, so I find my value in ‘Enchantment’, ‘Call Me When You Get This’, and ‘Another Rainy Day’, my favorite.

And the accompaniments are pretty great. Not too pop, not too much R&B; like Floetry I guess, with more of an easy going feel. I put this on last night and didn’t want to go to sleep, I was enjoying it so much.  So let’s say, 43/50, it’s soothing and pretty sexy.

love it hate it, whatcha think?

As always, thanks for reading!!
