She is pretentious, annoying, cloying, but Prince wrote it and I think that is its salvation.<br />I can see how it would be grating, completely. Who does that for me is Natalie Merchant. Nails on a chalkboard. <br /><br />I think her magnum opus is "The Last Day of Our Acquaintance." In spite of her veneer of fake, that one gets me every time. <br /><br />Happy New Year, EOB and family and all of the Owner's Manual crew!twinkly sparkleshttp://www.twinklysparkles.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-10169909887967179862011-12-31T04:34:33.961-05:002011-12-31T04:34:33.961-05:00My take is pretty simple - Sinead ... your "m...My take is pretty simple - Sinead ... your "music" sucked then, and it sucks now. <br /><br />Al<br />TRAG<br /><br />P.S.

It was actually great. <br /><br />When I first opened my antique store, that was one of the soundtracks we played over and over. We figured out early on, that certain music almost guaranteed there would be sales that day. My customers LOVED Sinead belting out the classics.<br /><br />I don't think I could bear to listen to it now. That first year of the antique store was a cold rainy struggle on the Oregon Coast. Each of those songs brings back every cold wet memory.<br /><br />Your essay here, as usual, has nailed it.DogsDontPurrhttp://dogsdontpurr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-72893529033044077092011-12-30T16:06:39.816-05:002011-12-30T16:06:39.816-05:00Contrarian here. 21 years any human will provide ...Contrarian here. 21 years any human will provide evidence of flaws.<br /><br />"My Sister Sinead" Kris Kristofferson<br /><br />"It’s askin’ for trouble to stick out your neck<br />In terms of a target a big silhouette<br />But some candles flicker and some candles fade<br />And some burn as true as my sister Sinead<br /><br />And maybe she’s crazy and maybe she ain’t<br />But so was Picasso and so were the saints<br />And she’s never been partial to shackles or chains<br />She’s too old for breaking and too young to tame"<br /><br />RJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-74930071371866606432011-12-30T15:52:05.803-05:002011-12-30T15:52:05.803-05:00Erin-
