She's always been an annoying fucking whore if that's what you're asking

>>126799596 (OP)
she is forgotten

>>126799596 (OP)
She was the classic sellout, hopped on the alt-rock bandwagon after afalse start with a Paula Abdul copycat act that failed to take off

>>126799596 (OP)
Wait for Sabrina Carpenter to give this same interview in 2054.

>>126799596 (OP)
>I ask about living in Trump’s America, and she says (with a touch of sarcasm) that she was looking forward to this part of the conversation. “The gift of travelling the planet is I get glimpses of how the international community perceive America,” she says. She has a way of summing up how Canadians respond to rudeness. They are, “Nice, nice, nice. Then piss us off on the wrong day and we explode.” Is this prime minister Mark Carney’s way of doing business with Trump? She laughs. “It becomes a hard no. We try to be amenable, but then it’s a very hard no. Unequivocal. So that’s kind of our thing, culturally. We came by it honestly.”

Good for her for giving an evasive answer to that question. I guess the interviewer was expecting some kind of "fug Orange Hitler" reply and she didn't give him one.

Sheryl Crow was exactly the same way.

Crow's first album that was quickly served. Tacky, overproduced late 80s/early 90s music:

Crow's second album, Tuesday Night Music Club. A cool, rock-tinged country/pop album. All I Wanna Do is a classic:

Alanis Morissette's first album, also tacky late 80s/early 90s music:

Alanis Morissette's second album. A cool, grunge-inspired, Glen Ballard-produced effort:

Good on them for dodging those turd bullets and being remanufactured into successful acts.

and ditto Tori Amos's debut album

>>126801569
what's wrong with that? and sheryl proved that kind of music was her passion after self-producing tuesday night's music's follow-up, easily one of the best albums ever by a female singer-songwriter

>>126801701
Crow faced some backlash after Tuesday... She fucked one of the guys from the group (called Tuesday Music Club) that helped her produce TNMC, Kevin Gilbert, who co-wrote a lot of tracks for Crow in that album. She kicked the bucket with Gilbert after the album release, tension & disputes within the Tuesday group grew, Gilbert then ack'd himself shortly after (police says it was accidental). Crow wanted clean up her "slept her way to the top" image and prove she could produce an album herself. The result is this.

C'Mon, C'Mon [A&M, 2002]
No dolt, she figures it's in her best interest to sound like one--as well as an insider outsider like Gush and Bore, whose horrible lessons in playing it safe she takes to heart. "We got rockstars in the Whitehouse/All our popstars look like porn," she whines on the first track, which the "hit" tops by claiming, "I don't have diddly squat," while dissing her "friend the communist" (who I bet isn't, and I also bet doesn't deserve the putdown). And those are the good songs. Soon here come Don Henley, Stevie Nicks, turns of phrase like "Lay it like it plays [a little dumb, but OK]/Play it like it lays [wha?]" and "With broken wings we'll learn to fly" and (am I missing some irony here?) "Life is what happens when you're making plans." Over this I'd take not the White House (where she'd go in a second if invited politely) but certainly porn (which I note without prejudice she is). C+

>>126800720
All of her projects have been aping other womens shit and she got a lot more commercial success than the alt girls she aped but then fell off almost immediately, a lot of people knee jerk thought she was great when jagged little pill came out and were then left confused with her subsequent releases

>>126801957
I guess Jewel was close to a one-and-done act as well.

>You must wait 120 seconds to post

Joni Mitchell made her first record in 1964, not many people know that one though.

>>126802043
and David Bowie's first was in '65 as Davey Jones

>>126802043
Joni released shit before song to a seagull?

>>126802051
>>126802043
but in most cases they weren't very good yet and nobody would argue that Bowie's first four years as a recording artist are in the same league as Young Americans or Low.

>>126800908
it's kind of like Peggy Lee and all the other 50s singers mentioned here. their early records as band canaries are not their best work or a good showcase of what they were capable of as mature singers later on.

>>126802063
It was a demo she cut but it was never actually released.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YOus2_u9sg

>>126802043
>>126802090
ok well '65 whatever

Simon & Garfunkel's first record as Tom & Jerry in 1957 which also had a super-creepy title.

>>126802090
hmm already sounds like the Joni we all know on here and you could just as easily think this was from Clouds. she had a sound worked out very early on it seems.

>>126802073
Billie Holiday is first heard on record with Benny Goodman in 1935's "Riffin' The Scotch" but they didn't even credit her, it just says "With Vocal Chorus."

>Willie Nelson's first record in 1957
>early Metallica No Life 'Till Leather demo
>first Everly Brothers record with Columbia in 1956
>some early demos of Jerry Garcia from 61-65
>Billy Joel fronting a psych rock band in 1969
>also before that Joel playing keybs on "Remember (Walking In The Sand)" when he was just 15
>CCR when they were the Gollywogs
>Dio fronting a doo-wop group in the late 50s
>Daryl Dragon of Captain & Tennille playing in a psych rock band in 1969
>early Dolly Parton from the mid-60s
>all four ABBA members had solo careers in Sweden before the group was formed

First time Randy Newman is heard on record was in 1962 when he was 17.

>>126801569
that first album is more R&B than how her sound later evolved. also maybe it's good she quit doing a baby voice after this thing.

>>126799596 (OP)
this is every gen-x alt chick

>>126802735

>>126801416
Right down to the politics where she manages to remain noncommittal because politics are for losers and who cares right?

>>126802771
>Right down to the politics where she manages to remain noncommittal because politics are for losers and who cares right?
That's just the money talking

>>126802771
that's right. we used to say back then that nobody likes being preached to and you best keep your beliefs to yourself.

>>126801898
and proved herself again with "globe sessions"
>>126802001
jewel had a decent run and at least lasted into the early 2000s, the 90s really did have an endless amount of singer-songwriter girls

>>126802816
They massively overdid it and signed way too many of these chicks so there were not enough resources to promote all of them and most became one hit or one album wonders.
