seventeen

the music post that come with too many videos. so now it will be simmered and boiled off to a singular video per post or at least thats what i claim now.


macy gray.
the black afro woman who sang the one hit wonder "i try".
even though she looks like a black man in drag.
i know there a million other black singers who are tons better vocally better than her. but she has the effect on me of what the jonas brothes have on tween kids now.
i listened to her songs way too many times when i was knee tall. now the effect still remains after three albums even when the afro is gone. so to all the critics i know she cant sing to the standards of normal. there is something in the imperfection. but if you do share the love try betty lavette. i bow down to blue eyed soul or simply black music it just expresses so much more and may actually mean something more than words and tunes.

she actually has tons of songs mush more polished than this. but i think this would represent her in the moment.



she covers creep by radiohead.
