    Hey!  My new girlfriend likes to take bubble baths while listening
to music!  You wanna argue with her?
    I'm schizo, remember!  ;-}~
    I'm easy to please in most things...
    Happy to!  Some of this stuff hasn't been on the revolver for ages!
    Just to rub it in?  :)
    Such eloquence!
    Kacy Crowley is interesting, I like her music, Folk Pop.
    Jury is still out on Kim Fix but trending toward favorable.  She
almost sounds like Lisa Germano on a happy day sometimes...
    Julia Fordham is getting a lot of play here, along with Billie
Myers.
    It's not that bad, but not up to the pre "Black" days.  I do like
"Black" though.  "Nothing Else Matters" and "The Unforgiven" along with
"Enter Sandman" and a couple others.  Now I'm going to be pulling it
out!
    "Ya ho -ho"?
    It's a good album for sure!  Who are the singers you don't know
about?  I'm sure someone here will know who they are...
    Not me.  <grin>
    It was, uh, less than complimentary!  <VBG>
    Have you straightened it out yet?
    Good album!
