Call me goofy.... But I liked Sixpence None the Richer...

[WCGreen]

They just had a nice Hippie pop etherial way about them even though I know they were Christian in orientation....

I also Loved Natalie Imbruglia's Torn....

Which I feel is one of the best pop songs that has come out in the last ten years....

Notice I said POP!!!!

[bridgit]

1. i do too, i like that girl's hair, it looks like a little stack of hay...

like their music too, they need to do more of it :-)

[WCGreen]

2. I forgot about the girls hair....

But she has such a cute look about her....

I just want to cuddle her...

In a non sexual way, like a niece or something....

[mvd]

3. I'm a fan, too

And I love Leigh Nash's solo CD. The only thing religious in Leigh's solo CD is the mention of heaven and angels. Those references are everywhere in music!

I also love "Torn," and some of Natalie's other work. While Left of the Middle is a bit uneven, I own it, and White Lilies Island is better.

Nothing wrong with some pop IMO. :hi:

[Bella Pisces]

22. I like their covers of "There She Goes" and "Don't Dream It's Over".

And speaking of Natalie Imbruglia, what did you think of the album she released last year, mvd?

Thanks.......

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Ah, yes!

Again, I've heard it on the radio....just didn't know it was this group!

Thanks for the links, my dear bridgit!

:hug:

[mvd]

12. Oh yes, "Kiss Me!"

Still one of their best.

[bridgit]

17. i think so too...

:-)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. My dear bridgit!

Thanks!

I had heard this one......just didn't remember who it was......

Very nice........:pals:

[driver8]

8. I liked the girl singer, too...and her cute little "lisp". n/t

[idgiehkt]

10. Natalie Imbruglia ROCKS!!!

I want to have her baby!

"Kiss Me" is my favorite song.

Of All Time.

Better?

[progmom]

11. ...

:o

[WCGreen]

13. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.....

Sorry you have bad memories....

But mine are good...

So that is why I wanted to share....

[idgiehkt]

15. just kidding

really

but that Torn song annoyed the crap out of me. Then my girlfriend at the time (not the suicide girl, another one, bought me the CD for my birthday, lol. For some reason I am laughing hysterically now at the thought of that. Don't take me personally, I'm just reminiscing. Nostalgia.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear idgiehkt.........

I'm sorry this thread is so painful for you......

There is no way the OP could have known that, however......

Perhaps a better way to handle your grief and loss would be just to use the "hide thread" feature?

Just sayin'.........:hug:

[idgiehkt]

16. Love you Peggy

but that was just a joke. Here I'll fix it.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

18. Sixpence None The Richer were good

I liked their songs, even if they had a bit too much airplay for my liking -yes, hearing them being played on the radio 6 times a day can get slightly tiring. But I liked and I still like their music

Natalie Imbruglia's Torn is an average song for me I guess -I neither liked it nor disliked it. I'll quite happily listen to it if it were on the radio but I wouldn't go out of the way to play it or find a copy of it. Another one that got massive overplay on commercial radio

[mvd]

20. Hi, sd1981!

Good to see you. Airplay doesn't usually affect my liking of a song. If I like the song, as I do with "Kiss Me" and "Torn," I could hear it over and over. A few songs do get tired though, like "Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani. That song got annoying after repeated listens.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

23. Hi MVD

Good to see you again :hi:

I do agree with you that I'm less likely to get tired of a song being played repetitively if I enjoy the song. I guess my main issue is that I feel that commercial radio here sometimes plays the song repetitively at the exclusion of other equally good musical hit which suffer because they don't get enough airplay

Nevertheless I will still enjoy listening to "Kiss Me" because I like the song

Natalie Imbruglia is Australian and I have a feeling that "Torn" was (and still is) played much more frequently here than in the US. I think that is perhaps what has increased my ambivalence toward the song

[Kickin_Donkey]

19. I'm not too high on "Kiss Me," but "Breathe Your Name" ...

is a top-notch song. I could listen to that all day.

[SacredCow]

21. Yeah, they had a vibe about them...

I also liked Frente.

[last_texas_dem]

24. Me, too

At least, based on the handful of singles I know by them. I wasn't that big on "Kiss Me" (mostly due to how much it got overplayed) but I actually think their cover of "There She Goes" bettered the original :hide: and their take on "Don't Dream It's Over" was pretty good as well.

And, oh yeah, I never get sick of "Torn", though, even after countless spins on the radio. Plus, that video where Ms. Imbruglia half-dances, half-flails around along to it while lipsyncing I always found entertaining.

[NMMNG]

25. They were nice in a cutesy sort of way

Though too much of them would send you into sugar-shock.

[WCGreen]

26. I wholeheartedly agree......

[peekaloo]

27. Did they know what the lyrics to 'There She Goes' was really about?

;-)
