Not really the point.. but why a sad state of affairs? She is trying to independently mix, package, promote and sell her music without the financial backing of a major label. Some people believe in her as an artist enough to invest in the project. What's your problem with that?
Back to the point though.. I was interested in hearing this when I heard about their collaboration awhile back, thanks for posting ElephantMan! It's a pretty song, it was nice to hear. |

I also think Pledge is an amazing thing, so that little artists can make a record without depending on a record label. There's lots of super talented artists out there that don't fit a record label cos they're not glamourous enough or don't fit in the box, and then Pledge is a nice alternative... I see many artists that are dropped from their record labels doing it... for instance, Rachael Yamagata did it... she's the most talented artist in the world but still her label dropped her cos she doesn't sell...
don't see a problem with fans paying in advance what they're gonna get later

She's also presenting the record live in Dublin in September, that was in the news a while ago...

it's an ok song. the chorus is a bit repetitive, though. I can't help but think about Shirley's part:

what that in turn does however is it puts the whole emphasis of the artist to be a clever marketer - not simply performing her art.................so those that rise to the top are not again necessarily artists that are getting rewarded for their true art but those that have figured out a way to cleverly market themselves while sure it gives some the opportunity to not ahve to suck up to the man or the system it still is an odd manifestation of where the business exists today..........something that for me simply smells bad |
