blogging in daylight hours, this is a new and different experience for katie dazzle! this is going to be a quickie - i just wanted to tell you about this lovely new self-titled debut album from christina courtin. the colour of it makes me wish i was on a beach in mexico. i'm not.
speaking of foreign countries though, i'm cheap segue-ing you into visiting here. c.c is a cute little new yorker girl and she sings even cuter songs with a couple of crackingly raw and electric turns in some of the later songs on the album. check out 'laconia' for example, she's positively growling at the end of the song, i've never heard someone sound so desperate yet tuneful at the same time.
so a la my crap wordplay attempt above, 'foreign country' is my fave pick on the album, and i think you should listen to it immediately. with adorably twee lyrics like "if i was a foreign country would you vacation up in my big city?" and swinging guitars backing c.c up, it's a lovely love song for lovers.
and this girl can perform! i did some world wide web stalking and found the following live version of 'foreign country' - nuts! in the best sense of the word. over and out party people x
