I love this place. Everyone has such amazing musical taste.
Sting is one of a kind, but I also love Eva Cassidy's Fields of Gold.
I agree. Karen Carpenter had an amazing voice. I often wonder where it would have taken her.
Yes, indeed. Why can't people sing like that anymore. Everyone is so overproduced that you don't get that kind of intimacy in a performance anymore.
Thats why I like YouTube. So much raw stuff on there. Here is YouTube's Ysabellabrave channeling Peggie Lee. You don't get much more intimate than a desklamp, a cheezy microphone and camera.
Also, I might add the Fado singer, Mariza. This is a voice one could get totally lost in.
Don't forget Sade's inspiration Astrud Gilberto.
Iwant you to go back and sample some of AMy Winehouse. Her most recent stuff takes you straight back to The Ronnettes or The Shangri las She is witty and wicked. Check out 'F... me pumps!". "Im no good" and "Rehab" LOL!
