    Never heard of her but she seems to have weaponized "come hither."



    That look makes me feel funny.

      Combine that with a sense of a sort of shy vulnerability that makes you want to put your arms around her and assure her that everything's gonna be ok. Yeah, I was smitten.

      Supposedly, she's a school teacher these days. Guitar player's her husband. Lucky bastid.

        It's fine in theory. In practice, well.

          I was a pretty regular listener of them back in the day although they only made 3 albums and I never found any solo work from her.

          My older boy listens to a lot of my music and in addition to asking me which version of True Faith came first (Flunk or New Order), Joy Division and NIN (Atmosphere), he asked the same about the Sundays covering Wild Horses.

            I've always thought the idea of covering a song is interesting. I think I read somewhere that if you cover a song exactly (that is, use the same lyrics), the songwriter can't prevent you from doing so. You just have to pay a certain royalty for the use of the song. However, if you change the lyrics of the song, even in a small way, the songwriter can actually prevent you from doing so. It requires permission.

            I can't remember the song in question where this came up, but I thought that was curious.
            That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

              One of the few covers that sounds nothing like the original, but is just as good in my opinion.

                I'd say the best covers are entirely new takes. Nothing says "cash dive" like re-recording somebody else's hit in exactly the same way they did it. They used to do that all the time in the '40s and '50s but that was when the labels wrote and owned the songs and the singers were just their stable of trained monkeys.

                  That is very interesting. I always wondered how Sid Vicious got "My Way." Given Frank's troglodytism he'd have never willingly given it up. (Well... on second thought Frank also really liked money.)

                      Do yourself an enormous favor and do not google Natalie now.

                      Just hold on to that memory.

                              looks pretty much the same to me.
