Re: Karin's beauty



"Sometimes I think about whether an artist's physical beauty affects our
>feelings about his/her music."

I don't even know where to start with whether an artists appearnce matters 
or not but I'll try......LOL(never at a loss for words)

As I stumbled across our lovely little band(OTR)a mere 15 months ago and
bought my first CD(Films)I had no idea what Karin looked like.Upon opening 
the CD I remember thinking to myself...hmmm She looks "frumpy"
for having such a nice unique voice...LOL Let's face it the first photo
you see when opening the FFR CD booklet is hardly flattering and to be 
honest I never and even noticed the one in the center of booklet where
a slightly more attractive photo of Karin is ruined by the center crease!One 
of the problems with the CD era as opposed to all of us older folks that can 
remember studying full album cover fronts,backs,and insides 20 yrs.ago. 
Anyway the first time I had ever seen her was when she walked onstage in 
Wheaton,and I remember "hearts floating around my head" like you see in 
cartoons.I already had liked SOME of the music but NOW after seeing this 
goddess walk on stage I wanted learn,read,hear every note she had 
recorded,and especially every word she had written! I almost felt like they 
had gone out of thier way
to HIDE Karin's beauty just to let the music live or die on it's own.Well 
that's sad because you can market the physical beauty as well
as the aural beauty.It helps people to put a face to a song especially
one as beautiful as Karins'. I know mine and every male OTR fans' heart 
skips a beat when Karin takes the stage,thinking"so classy" so sexy" so 
"REAL" and humble.To be honest if she looked like Rosie O'Donnell I don't 
know if I would of ever been that excited to hear the music and that would 
be sad because I'd be missing some great music!...LOL
