[...] Pladeselskabsinteressen udeblev ikke, men et færdigindspillet debutalbum blev i sidste øjeblik skrottet i 1992. Godt det samme, for Crow følte sig hjemløs i den rolle som endnu en danseglad poptøs, som pladeselskabet havde tiltænkt hende. I stedet brød hun igennem året efter med singlerne ’Leaving Las Vegas’ og ’Soak Up The Sun’ (YouTube-link) fra det Grammy-vindende ’Tuesday Music Club’, som tidligt fremstod som en nyklassiker i grænselandet mellem country og poprock, hvor Fleetwood Mac møder bluegrass. Deluxeudgaven fra 2009 bekræftede det indtryk. [...]

What I love about Crow is that (almost) all of her songs tell stories – they’re not just repeated lyrics over and over. Each song has these small vivid scenes that she sets up, SUTS included. C’mon, C’mon is one of my least favorite albums of hers, but SUTS is not a bad song, and not stupid in the least if you listen to the lyrics. Contrast this song with “Weather Channel,” the last song on that CD, in which she sings about being in deep depression, and you’ll find Crow’s true intentions. One opens the CD in a very light-hearted, happy tone, the second closes the CD with Crow singing about having to fake it, feeling like two completely different people.

That would explain why he's so full of shit. She only lets him use one piece of toilet paper at a time.

You didn't mention Joni Mitchell who, even with a voice that sounds like rough grit sandpaper on gravel, still produces good material. Or Aimee Mann. Or Alison Krauss. No, that would take the wind out of your defense of Crow because it couldn't couple some sexist insinuation with it.

If you like Crow, so be it. But your broad brush with which to paint all her detractors as wrong because she's a woman and that's why we don't like her music, and she's not playing down to her audience in order to have one, betrays the content of a good portion of her catalog.

Actually, my best work is on the next episode of the Popdose Podcast, where I pretty much spend an hour making fun of Jason Hare's mom. Check back for it on Friday morning. I think you'll enjoy it.

Then I guess we don't need to hear from you after this post, since this is YOUR best work, clearly.
