This mix is dedicated to ViciousBleu, I had promised to make a mix of favorite female vocalists. So, here go. This is based on what I'd posted in her music forum topic called "I Hate Women." It was a little difficult to choose between favorite songs, but I posted the songs that made me fall in love with each vocalist. Love is all around. Oh, and the cover is another water color of mine that I did last week. The giraffe's legs are apearing from the top.

Track Description:
Album opener that caught me off guard becaue of what I'd known from here before. I assume she is playing the intimidating piano music as she sings. Sampling songs for this mix, this song still effects me and makes me pause and listen to it. I stalked Heather online, which I don't think is punishable, since it was only one rambling e-mail. Great album. SHOW LESS

My favorite song of Annie Lennox's. (Honestly, how does one choose one?) I think Diva should be in every CD collection. On Revenge, "Thorn" is preceded by "Missionary Man" and followed by "When Tomorrow Comes" - it's slap-yo-mamma delicious. SHOW LESS

(Okay, I deeply love all of these songs) Too bad a fifties movies that MST3K covers doesn't have this song break out as the kids all sit in their booths at the local burger joint.

Track Description:
I promised Kim Deal and Kim Gordon, well here they be. I wanted to include The Breeders covering the Aerosmith song "Lord of Your Thighs" but I used that on my very first MTC mix, so I guess that song is grandfathered into this mix. It's a ghost runner on first. I saw the video for this song by Mark Romanek before I'd heard the song. Jiminy Cricket and a flammable bundt cake! Stellar. SHOW LESS
