    Kewl!  Most things should not be a choice in a relationship...

    With the broad genre span I listen to, I'd be surprised if I didn't
like her music.  If she doesn't enjoy mine, it is what basements and
headphones are made for.  :-)
Typing of Julia Fordham's "Stay":
    I would guess you now appreciate the lyrics as well as the beat? :)
    Jen is an acquired taste.  Some people find her voice "too
different".  Which is why it works well for me.  Then you have people
like Kristen Hall, Patty Smith, and Bonnie Tyler with "gravel"
voices, sort of female versions of Rod Stewart.
    It is a song of the uncertainty / fear / beauty of love.  :)
...
    Oh?  You said you enjoyed music for the beat (rhythm), no?
...
...
    Probably Ravel's Bolero or Daphine et Chloe on repeat play.
Typing of BW barfing...

    Good!  I'd never guess from these messages, would I?
    You're welcome.  Good album, really!
    Entirely debatable.  :)
    The year is still young, you may yet find love.
    That is a good album!
    I especially like "Folk Song" and "Summertime".
