Immature Voices and Jonatha Brooke (no otr)

I hope you wish to possess a less mature voice because *you* like it, and
not because everyone else does.
I have a lot of different types of CDs, with many different types of music.
I listen to *gasp* mainstream. I like Jewel, Alanis, Natalie Imbruglia.
I also like things *not* in the mainstream. Like Sam Phillips, Over the
Rhine (although someday we may have to lump them in the *other*
category...what horror!), October Project, and *old* Paula Cole.
Personally, I'd prefer to have a voice with power and maturity behind it,
like Karin or Mary from October Project. But that's just me.
She then continued in her next e-mail with:
>I will now let you know that you are fully redeemed and saved my career
>story due to your playing of this album. *grin* Jonatha Brooke is
>amazing and wonderful...and although IMO _10 Cent Wings_ is better, this
>one is just as amazing!
The reason why you think _10 Cent Wings_ is better than _Plumb_ is probably
because on _Plumb_ Jonatha was pretending like she was still a part of The
Story after Jennifer Kimball split. _...Wings_ is probably a more mature,
more together sound for the new Jonatha Brooke.
I still think the best part of Jonatha's music were those gorgeous
harmonies... The simplicity of some of their songs *love is more thicker
than forget*, *in the gloaming*, *over oceans* was such a far cry from the
norm...
And they were such nice people, too. They sat there and listened to my
mother ramble on and on about how I sing, too...*rolls eyes* I guess they
understood.
Oh, well, I still have Patty Larkin.
*hugz and kisses*
