Having never really listened to anything she has done I watched a live performence a couple of weeks ago and I was blown away at how good she is, can anyone reccomend any albums or songs for me to check out?

She's pretty eclectic in her music man.

I would recommend her first album "Dry" to start off with although it's quite raw and gritty but thats what I prefer.Her most recent album "Uh Huh Her" is awesome and a return to form as the album before that, "Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea" is much cleaner and commercial although that garnered her attention for a possible Mercury prize.

Honestly man you can't go wrong with any of her music.

Ok thanks man

fireflyry · May 27, 2006, 08:50 PM

No probs man.

Check out "Who the fuck?" and "The Letter" off the new album "Uh Huh Her" (should be an easy Limewire misson).If you dig those two tracks you'll love every album pretty much.

NO NO NO! Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea - is the start!

Depends.

How long have you been into her?Most fans agree that while Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea is a great album it differs hugely from most of her other albums.

"Dry" and "Uh Huh Her" are not only better imo but are a better example of her songwriting style.

i been into her for 2 years, i have all her albums (from cheap sale) but i know very well only:

To Bring You My Love
Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea
Uh Huh Her

they are all diffrent but i prefer Stories... just cause of the sound record and yes myabe this is the most comercial record but i dont mind that, i love it.
About Uh Huh Her, i loved record so much but gone off it within a month, felt like i been listening to it for like a year, hmm wierd, still love it though. To Bring You My Love is classic!

fireflyry · May 27, 2006, 10:15 PM

It's all good really.

KingCrimson · May 27, 2006, 11:15 PM

raynor · May 28, 2006, 11:22 AM

'stories from the city, stories from the sea' is my favourite.

DeftonesATF27 · May 29, 2006, 10:37 AM

Please anybody in this thread pick up "To Bring You My Love" beautiful ass record, deserves all the respect in the world. Check it out. This woman is the best, amazing voice, beautiful words, style, charishma, provocative, sexy, shes better then bjork, fiona and all them, shes better then dudes, take my word.

dress is a cool song

Chrisbo · May 29, 2006, 05:05 PM

"Stories From The City..." does differ from most of her work, but to me it is flawless! And having Thom Yorke on the album was a good move I reckon, he does enrich it more! "To Bring You My Love" is as ATF says beautiful! "Is This Desire" is an awesome album as well, with tracks like 'A Perfect Day Elise', 'The Garden' and 'The River', fucking great album, pick that one up if you dont have it now! I also got to see her live back in 2003 and yeah, her voice certainly does blow me away, both on record and in the flesh!

Mazzy · May 30, 2006, 01:25 AM

Dry. I'd start with Dry.

I think you should get Stories last. It's a beautiful record but get it last. She has a new dvd out and it sucks like no tomorrow. she's an amazing live performer and this dvd does nothing to accentuate that.
