I advise everyone who is looking for some really good female artists check out the links sextonseven posted. ...I already have it saved on my computer  I deleted some and added a few since the last time.  I noticed! 
...so sad how a pretty good percentage of my music collection is stuff recommended by you
I need to get off the org!  If you will, so will I | |

Did you start a Bat For Lashes thread last month? It was that thread that made me get her album. I had seen the video for "Prescilla" on MTV and thought it wasn't bad, but that thread compared her to all these other artists that I like so I listened to more songs on her myspace page and bought the album the next day. | |
