It Ended Bad, But I Loved Where We Started

I went to Lou’s Records this weekend and finally used a credit that had been burning a whole in my pocket. I picked up Fiona Apple’s Extraordinary Machine.
After giving it a good listen, I have to say that this is a solid album. Fiona’s voice seems stronger than ever. She seems comfortable and confident. Sometimes, I could swear I was listening to a singer from the 20’s or the 30’s. I just love this album.
There’s a pretty nice interview in Nylon magazine this month with Fiona Apple, who just turned 28. The interviewer said, that she found Fiona to be silly, funny, intelligent, and not at all crazy. Fiona does have a penchant for running her mouth. She’s gotten a lot of flack for her waify look in the “Criminal” video and for her acceptance speech at the MTV Music Awards. She looks healthy now.
She’s playing at House of Blues San Diego on November 28th. That should be pretty sweet, if you’re into that kind of thing.

My God, she’s gorgeous. i suppose i will check out this new album. i admit i boycotted her for the aforementioned reasons, but i STILL listen to her first album, rediscovered it actually. so i think i’m ready to see what she’s been up to…
That picture doesn’t do her justice. Go to her webpage, this woman gives Angelina Jolie a run for her money.
I was pretty bummed when Jorge told me that the show was sold out. I’m gonna try to win some tix on eBay.

Have you watched that new show Invasion? The daughter on that show, Alexis Dziena, looks like Fiona.
