Re: “Letter from Lila”

I think you're on to something there unanonymous. Foulcalt said it better but who and how does make a difference. Who woulda thunk?

Re: “Letter from Lila”

Well blah blah, at least you chose a name that suites you. That’s just the sort of ad hominem blather that people hate about open and anonymous posts. Without degrading this forum further, and hopefully not fueling a flame war, I have to help you along with a couple of points.

Artistically you are entitled to your opinion but in terms of musical technicality Lila has got some skills (tunings, time signatures, cords, and precision). Personally, I think it is her lyrics that really shine (which is maybe what you meant by storyteller).

I am pretty sure most people would just stop reading after someone posts something as pat (and rude) about feminism being "so 90’s"n Tell your mother you think so. Seriously.

(I would not classify her music as feminist unless you are of the opinion that anything women do besides housework is feminist. Women’s issues are not what she typically writes or sings about)

The last bit, besides being mean, was so obviously clueless I am forced to post. I guess the irony was lost on you, and I didn’t even think it was all that subtle. Let me help you out with it: Woman who obviously has a brain happens to also be attractive. She writes, sings, and talks about all that –the good, bad, and weird. Her poster has a semi-hot though completely posed shot. I thought it was hilarious, but I’m afraid the joke is on you.

What’s with the hate Humboldt? I wish Lila utmost successes.
