Aargh...I'm running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Haven't been able to read more of Case Histories. Went to a yoga class this morning (we have to do a beginners' class, plus a 2 or a 2/3, which means intermediate or intermediate/advanced) each week.
I stopped at B&N on the way back and got Madonna's new CD, Kate Bush's new CD (first since '93 -yay!) and the first season of The Nanny, which is kind of a guilty pleasure over here. D used to watch it (reruns, of course) and I was like, "How can you stand her voice?" Then it grew on me.
We're listening to Madge's CD first since D is a Madonna fan, but not a Kate Bush fan. On Madonna's CD, the first song is good, then the others all kind of sound alike until you hit #10. Then 10, 11 and 12 are weird, fun and interesting. I'm predicting that the in-between songs will grow on me.

Let me know how it turns out..I planned on writing about Madge and her videe on my blog later. :)
Poppy - I have to listen to it some more. It doesn't have as much personality as Madonna's - it's a little subdued. But if you like Kate, you should definitely get it. It's very piano-y and relaxing. It's a LOT of music to digest...2 whole CDs and one of the songs is supposedly 42 minutes long (according to the little review thingy they have at Barnes & Noble, as part of the listening machine).
Lost - It's growing on me already. After the first listen, 1 and 10-12 were the standout tracks...now the ones in between are catching my attention too.
The other cool thing about her is that she's a cancer survivor. That's definite thumbs up in my book. It takes a strong person to beat cancer.
