I forgot why for two years all I listened to was Ani Difranco. Today, I remembered. After the "wisdom" of alternative, and the "freedom" of emo, I still remember my personal roots in pop/folk/funk with Mrs. Difranco. She just knows how life is.

the ibsen players are all amazing...i have the same book.

Also, if you're into quazi-political music ie. ani....

The Manic Street Preachers sound NOTHING like Ani, but are wicked political. They're left wing extremists. they like Cuba. They rock my world. They're brit-popish i suppose

also, billy bragg sounds a bit more like ani...guy with a guitar and is also extreme left-wing extreme...and he's got a killer brittish accent.

both have the lisle seal of approval...as does ibsen. hooray!

Ani Difranco... what an amazing woman. And Tori Amos... she is amazingly talented. They're both inspirational. Do you listen to Ms. Amos? If not... then you should... you really should... Music is beautiful... music is life.

Much love and Respect,
