Does anybody else love The Roches?
I love their songwriting and harmonies so much.

1. I love the Indigo Girls song they sing on, Airplane.
Their voices sound like a steel guitar the way they just slide up the scale.

3. If you like that, you'd probably like a lot more of the Indigo Girls.
They are in my humble opinion awesome.

You don't have to convince me! B-)

They write great songs, play guitars and sing beautifully.

That's almost a lost art. :)

7. Have you ever heard Jill Sobule?
http://www.jillsobule.com/showandtell.html

She's my favorite. You can hear some songs at that link.
Jill's amazing in concert she comes out with this little Vagabond guitar and just plays the hell out of it and sings like an angel. And in addition she can't stand Bush.

5. "We are Terre and Maggie and Suzzy...
Terre and Maggie and Suzzy Roche,
We don't give out our ages or phone numbers (ages or phone numbers)
Now a trio we are, born on the fourth of September..."

6. La Vie C'est La Vie
La Vie C'est La Vie

On summer afternoons I sit
Quiescent by you in the park,
And idly watch the sunbeams gild
And tint the ash tree's bark.

Or else I watch the squirrels frisk
And chaffer in the grassy lane;
And all the while I mark your voice
Breaking with love and pain.

I know a woman who would give
Her chance of heaven to take my place;
To see the love-light in your eyes,
The love-glow on your face!

And there's a man whose lightest word
Can set my chilly blood afire;
Fulfillment of his least behest
Defines my life's desire.

But he will none of me.
Nor I Of you.
Nor you of her.
'Tis said the world is full of jests like these.

--- I wish that I were dead.
