Ahh, Lisa Hannigan.
My second favorite song she did with Damien Rice has got to be 9 crimes ...

But my favorite is definitely Unplayed Piano ...

Finally, I must mention Lauren Pritchard and her tune that closed the film, The Cake Eaters, a song which was written by Duncan Sheik and Steve Sater.

Patsy Cline
Some current female singers have very nice voices but Cline had a very authentic, 'lived in' soul in her voice

She's another one of those perfect artists that makes me wonder what else she could have accomplished if she'd lived a lot longer
