I left work yesterday and crawled over to my friend Ethan's apartment in the West Village. Baaarely. By the time he placed a call to the bistro around the corner for some delivery, I had already kicked off my shoes, changed into one of his T-shirts, and was sprawled over his couch sleeping like a log. Ethan takes good care of me, and always tends to give more than he takes. Wish more people were like that. Anyhoo, maybe it's all this rainy weather or the fact that I'm working outrageously hard these days but I was nodding off like a shameless heroin addict last night. Boy did that nap feel good.

Which brings me to my next point: I need interns. If you're interested in interning for me at Universal Music Group in A&R, please email me at [email protected].

Sooo I'm still sort of tired (which is why I'm keeping this post so short) but I'm in a great mood so it all balances out at the end of the day. Here are some of my latest favorites playing on my speakers this morning -- all delicate vocals, perfect for a grey day like today:

Camille - "La Jeune Fille Aux Cheveux Blancs"
Lily Allen - "Little Things"

thanks

i love camille! completely underappreciated album, le fil. light years more sensuous than nouvelle vague.
great pick!

Love these songs, haven't heard Little Things before and that Camille song is pretty damn amazing.

Posted by: wade | May 16, 2006 at 03:40 PM

thanks

Thank you for the Lily Allen song, lovely girl, lovely tune. The Camille I had, but she is amazing!
Posted by: scott | May 16, 2006 at 07:08 PM
Really beautiful songs, really. Both songs feel like there's a common thread. Can't get enough of Camille. Wonder why this album never quite broke like it did in the UK, as Nouvelle Vague did so well here.
Thank you Sunny, yet another great selection of tunes!
Posted by: Ted | May 16, 2006 at 07:20 PM
Hey Scott, sure thing! Really lovely for sure and both Camille and Lily have very distinctive styles but like Ted mentions, there's a strong French inflection to these songs... which is the common thread that I think you're picking up on.
Enjoy! x

what shocks me is that you're a genuinely nice person. go figure.
Posted by: Anonogirl | May 16, 2006 at 07:40 PM
Sure sure, nice is nice but I just caught a glimpse of you tonight and your hair cut is cute as a picture. Without being too crude you are totally the kind of gal guys would need a kleenex and lotion for. And that's a compliment.

Hold up a minute... you're an A&R person with a blog that illegally (from the labels' POV) music?
Are the labels changing? Or have you hidden this little fact from them? (I pray it's the former.)
