Studio version of her song "If I Were Blue" that is on pryso' live concert clip. I find the sound of her voice extremely sensual on this; works for me 😉:

Frogman, unti I saw P:B.here on Audiogon, I never saw her performing live (had no wish,obviously). Anyway, now when we are talking... she reminds me of this singer. Norma Winstone, from Azimuth. Here is the link https://youtu.be/yIzs92WTtNU Bought that album, when it got out, more than 20 years ago, again, the music that I do not listen any more, it feels 'artificial' to me. Pryso, glad that you had no offense, we had ugly debates here, just because of 'different taste'. About Diana Krall, I have no albums of her either, she seems like a great pop singer. Pity that 'pop' has very different face today. Is it just me getting old, but music and its 'definitions' has really shifted for the worse? |
Getting old....same as I....since you asked ☺️ Unless, of course, one is prepared to also say that life in general and humanity as a whole is in a worse state today than in the past. I don't subscribe to that notion. As always, good art is a reflection of the time of its creation and what determines its worth is how well it reflects that time; whether we like it or not and the reasons why is a separate matter. It is always a challenge to go outside our own comfort zones, which are a product of the time of OUR creation and life experiences, and to look at art through a less biased lens. I fail miserably sometimes. |
Frogman, I'm glad you're happy in your world of trick mirrors and illusions. When politicians can illegally rob us and our treasury blind with impunity, (endless wars, and commodity market manipulation) incredibly so during the Bush Administration. Genocide! That's what you watched for 3 days on national television, when you watched the Katrina Aftermath. That was the case of "one" depraved politician who put "chinks" in the way of anyone trying to help people at the Dome, as well as African Americans drowning all over the place. The military and foreign governments were prevented from helping; you can look this up on the internet. That depraved politician became "Your Government". I've written about this so much, that now I'm the victim; one foot on a banana peel, and the other over eternity. All of our cities are "hell holes", where the rich live in isolation. Deprived people become depraved people; let Cardi B tell you how she did it; meaning to escape poverty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEGccV-NOm8 When our cities switch places from being murder capitals of the world; St. Louis today, Detroit tomorrow, "Nola" the next day; not exactly an environment for most arts. |
