Ooh she is good. And I've never heard of her. Enjoyed it, found other things to listen to. Here she is, live, singing "Is your love big enough?"

Back in a bit when I've listened to the two new ones you just posted. By the way, what did the talking head find fault with?

It actually wasn't that bad. It kept saying she has a wonderful voice but she sings about too many melancholy issues. Well sing on girl. You are A+ in my book.

Melancholy? So what! Even if it were true, and I'm not convinced.
Have another half an hour of her for luck.

She's only 22 and must have huge potential. She made me think of Corinne Bailey Rae - no idea why - who isn't bad now but was dire when she started. If CBR can progress from making my ears bleed to quite good in ten years, goodness knows where this one could end up. Sky's the limit, I reckon.

Afterthought - just occurred to me, these three songs are all about death, but nobody dismissed Robbins for being melancholy.

Sorry to be the bearer of sad news.
Thank you for Stampede - I hadn't heard that one. I didn't know there was a sequel to El Paso either. Here's Feleena:

When did this brilliant and beautifully-sung storytelling get replaced by the nasal my dog done died and my wife done left me?

I guess that's the 'Western' in Country and Western music.

Good stuff alexis. Bluegrass is good. 'O Brother, Where Art Thou' is one I watch a couple of times a year.

Radiohead? My son's Year 4 teacher was Thom Yorke's aunt. Where shall I sit to sign autographs?
