Alice Russell - I don't know her, but this song is great! I love the beat, the horns, good voice! Is the album anything like this? If so, I will definitely check it out!

There is more to her than that one song!

just like Alannah Myles.....

abierman said:

The album is very eclectic. She goes electronic, blues, kind of all over the place. Personally I love it but if that is the only sound you're looking for then you'll be disappointed. She's hooked up with the right producers though because they know how to write for her voice

OMG! don't make me wild out this early in my thread!

Liberty City - fun dance-track.....some dj should do a phat remix of it! Could used some more bass! (not listening with headphones....)

Siobhan Donaghy - interesting track, interesting arrangements, very electronic....which I like! Good voice!

Your Christian upbringing must have had a say in how your link was edited.

Me'Shell - I'm a bit surprised you picked this track.....it's the one track I often skip when I listen to 'Cookie'. That doesn't mean it's bad, it's still Me'Shell.....one of the very few artists I can not name a bad song from.
However, a Supa-mix without Me'Shell is not a Supa-mix!!!!

She's the foxy redhead that used to be in the Sugababes! Her solo album is grrrreat. I loved it when she did an Elizabeth Fraser!

HamsterHuey said:

no fuckin' way!!!! No wonder I don't know her, I always get off on the blonde.....not for her singing qualities though.....

abierman said:

Read my thoughts on the song. There was no way i could deny this song it's voice.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

The voice or the lyrics?? Especially on Cookie it is hard to deny Me'Shell's voice! I'm in love with her voice!
See, I didn't read your opening post, just wanted to listen!

abierman said:

The lyrics. I included them for a reason!

abierman said:

I had a huge click with the Sugababes' first hit Overload, that was mostly centered around Siobhan's voice (as was the band, if I remember correctly).
And I have a thing for classy redheads. So I kept my eye on her. Her songs Ghosts was mindblowing to me, as she took her cue from The Cocteau Twins' Elizabeth Fraser, who most people just know as the vocalist on Massive Attack's Teardrop. I am a huuuuge Cocteau Twins fan, hence them being on my mixtape.

The first line up of the Sugababes did not HAVE a blonde, btw.

Morcheeba - Big Calm is probably their only good album, they went all poppy after that! The Sea is also probably the best song on it. I remember seeing them live when this came out 10 years ago. They opened with The Sea!
I like the album version better than this one, still this is a strong version as well!

abierman said:

I think the album version is great but the simplicity of this version makes it superior to me

HamsterHuey said:

Emma Bunton was NOT in the Sugababes????

I kinda like the Sugababes as well....but don't really keep up with their line-up changes.

abierman said:

I never heard of the sugarbabes but i'm imagining there were 52 of them

Supa, this is Boys For Pele, somehow.

abierman said:

I can't tell if you are having fun with us or not with that question!

In the slight chance that you are serious, you do know Emma was in the Spice Girls and not Sugababes, right?

sextonseven said:

That's Aksel being his sarcastic self.

sextonseven said:

you're right, I was just poking Herman with the fact that he's keeping track of British girlbands!
But he's right, Sugababes are a lot better than the Spice Girls

HamsterHuey said:

Do you mean the spirit of it?

Thread's on fire!

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Yes; it's ex-bf's and excorsizing demons.

abierman said:

That's what I figured. You know way too much about music to make that mistake.

abierman said:

For the first time in five weeks I am able to pour some time into the mixtape project. I will have to work my way backwards.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I can see that, I like the electronic version of it. On that gig, the venue was totally dark, there was only a blue spotlight on Sky. Also, the set up of the stage was quite interesting: Drumkit on the right side of the stage, dj-altar in the middle (instead of the other way around), something I had not seen before (this was 1998).

abierman said:

The fastest one to catch fire of all these threads I think. And you're the only one that has so far actually listened to the mix!
