Fiona's voice reminded me of Beth Orton...

Here is a sample.

Good morning

The Breeders

[andyssister]

Hi! That was very good. Lots of good movies featured in that.

I think I saw the evil truck from "Duel" which scared the @%!* out of me as a little girl!! :)

Anyway, heres some Barenaked Ladies:

Old Apartment

Thanks for the pingaling. I’m lovin’ this thread!

[andyssister]

Hi! Here's some stuff for you and Mr.clinkclink.

Ooh La La

Graham Nash

And This train wreck from David Hasselhoff

LMAO! Don't hassle the Hoff!!

[clinkclink]

actually...that was a John Lennon song.

[andyssister]

True.

I think I was confused by the whole "oh I've just come back from doing Transcendental Meditation with the Maharishi" type vibe that I associate with George Harrison. :)

[clinkclink]

David Hasselhoff flies?! Too funny.

[Caramelgal]

Judy Collins & Leonard Cohen - Suzanne

Sweet. Thanks

[Caramelgal]

Fiona's voice reminded me of Beth Orton...

Here's my favorite Beth Orton song.

It reminds me of a sad time in my life, when my marriage was ending. But it was then and still is a great song. I love the intro.

Beth Orton Stolen Car

[Caramelgal]

I think I have to go with the original and (my favorite Beatle)George Harrison's version. Fiona was a bit too monotone for my taste although I did like her first album - much more passion to her siging. But geeze, I'd wish wish that girl would break down and eat a cheese burger every once and a while.

Fiona Apple 'Criminal'

[Gone_Postal]

f you'd like to be added to the Weekend YouTube Musical Video thread ping list, let me know.

Please add me thanks

[Caramelgal]

I stand corrected. That was John Lennon and not George Harrison. I too always atribute this to Harrison.

Here's one from George however.

Old Brown Shoe

[andyssister]

Great song and excellent pictures. Kind of sad, though.

I was just watching U2's epic halftime show at the Superbowl 2002.

This is the second song-Where the Streets Have No Name. The names of the victims of 9/11 scrolling behind the band.

And this is the first song-Beautiful Day.

I love U2...
