new music

people have wanted to talk music with me lately, and i have to admit i feel a bit out of the loop lately. Normally, i have a weekend morning routine. I get up early (it's all relative), and grab a book, and i slide silently out of bed so as not to wake up the love of my life, then i proceed to the living room where i do one of two things 1. watch VH1 and try to get my finger on the pulse of what is cool in music videos, or 2. listen to music ondemand on my cable TV (i have found many a new artist this way). But i havent' heard anything i am in love with recently. so i listen to recommendations with open ears. I should listen to more iron & wine i guess, i should check out so and so. i love it. I look it up on itunes and enjoy... but i have yet to find someone who moves me like ray, or someone i could listen to non-stop for a weekend, like ani. Entertainment Weekly even chimed in with their "EW's Latest Aural Fixations".... geez is everyone on a quest to find something that takes their breath away? They (EW) recommend JAYMAY, LAURA MARLING, KATE WALSH, and YAEL NAIM. the jury is still out.

Alas, it is the constant problem of a music lover. Check out myspace music for Edwina Hayes - she's from across the pond and her voice is pretty and honest. You didn't love Ford Turrell? He's not Ray, certainly not lyrically, but his voice is similar. I will keep my ears (and heart) open. Love to you Green Lady.
