6. I got one of her CDs
It's all soft jazz, though. This is different — she's out honky-tonkin'.

8. I'll pick up the new one.
Both of my house mates enjoy her music too so I always burn extra copies as soon as I bring anything home. It's saved paying for replacements several times. Plus I'm spoiled. I don't want to chase down music. :mad: one of my house mates is rather careless about taking care of the disc.

9. I hate that
I'm sorta nuts about handling CDs and DVDs — only by the edges, etc. And they always go back in the case as soon as I'm done with 'em.

10. Yep! Me too!
Handle 'em right, put 'em back. :thumbsup:


I'm also pretty anal about labeling the CDs with a Sharpie. I seem to have selective memory problems. If I want to know the name of a song, I don't want to go looking for the original case (which is filled in alphabetical order).

23. She does an incredible version of Love Me.
I'm sure if you think about it you'll remember who made that one a big hit. ;)

And I just recently found out that she's Ravi Shankar's daughter.

18. I could have told you that.
I'm very good friends with her make_up_artist.

I sat in the rain to hear her in concert last year. That was when she had the old back-up band.

21. I didn't know,
even I really adore Ravi Shankar. But, to be honest, I'm a real dork if it comes to new artists in music. If I like something I hear I buy it, but that's it. I never check their bios out or anything.

Heidi told me, and I was really surprised. ;)

24. I listened to it the other night. Loved it.
Sounds "old school" country, but without a ton of twang.
