This Poi Dog Pondering track sounds quite a bit like Jens Lekman, a new Norwegian artist whose "Opposite of Hallelujah" was a favorite of mine last year.

VHM Poi Dog Pondering, just for not being "Be The One", the only song of theirs that Dave ever plays.

great album title, "Missing - Presumed Having A Good Time"

PDP started in Hawaii, got their following in Austin, not aware of any scandihoovian connection.

When it first came out, a Pittsburgh secretary-pop station gave it a few spins.

Ah, thank you. Much appreciated for the illumination.

Kind of digging this Robert Palmer Marvin Gaye medley, but I could swear Todd Rundgren used to play the same medley in his live shows.  I know I've heard him do Mercy Mercy Me.

well, they deserve kudos. It pretty much fell by the wayside. A fine album overall.  I suspect if Mr Palmer had lived, he'd be getting around to covering "Sexual Healing" about now.

That Sundays track can ONLY occupy the #10 position.  For at least a couple years I thought it was the Cranberries.

ditto -- I was actually going to comment that that was the ubiquitous female soundalike voice of the time. The Corrinne Colbie Feist of the early '90s, if you will.

actually I won't - Corrinne Colby Feist are the Dolores O'Riordan/Harriet Wheeler/Tanya Donnely of the mid-aughts, not the other way around.

If there's a hard-and-fast rule at work here, then I certainly defer to you, but I've heard such situations phrased the opposite way more often than not,  using the "He was the so-and-so of his time" model. For example, I've heard numerous references in the past year like "she was the Paris Hilton of her day", referring to various celebrity skanks of the past.

Copy editors, weigh in!

I don't see either metaphor as being more correct than the other--it just depends on which one you're talking about. If you're discussing Dolores/Harriet etc. then Mike's is perfectly apropos, but if you're talking about Corinne/Colbie/Madeleine (let's not forget her, now)then Mark's would work.

I wasn't angling for anyone to defer to me, least of all Mike!  I was just being contrarian.  ;) ;) ;)

But thanks for taking me seriously.
