I'm restless. I can't help it!

There are like...5 interesting stories on Mysterious MysteriesUnexplained Mysteries, and I can't focus one any of them.

Also, Amazon, where the HELL is my Invader Zim. I knew it wouldn't get here BY Christmas but I didn't think that meant they weren't sending it UNTIL Christmas.

And the song Isobel by Dido makes me cry. Why does it seem like there aren't a lot of the folksy funky female singers anymore like there were in the 90's-ish. Kate Nash is awesome but like...Most of them who attempt that style fall...painfully flat. There use to be Dido, Jewel, Sarah McLaughlin (I think I just butchered that name...), Tori Amos and a few more that were kinda one hit wonders but still had some pretty good decent hits. I know some of them still make music but...nothing that dominates the radio like they use to.

Maybe my radio's just changes.

I guess there's Jason Mraz. He's trying to fill the void of folksy funky women music all on his own.

Mysterious Mysteries of Strange Mystery!

As far as the folksy singers, I've noticed it too. There aren't a lot that get radio play, anyway. A lot of them still make music, but it doesn't get widespread play. Have you ever listened to Vienna Teng? Her stuff fits nicely into the folk/pop/rock genre, though gets little to no radio exposure.

Though, there's always Jason Mraz. XD

I'll for sure check her out. I'm always looking for new music.

Keep your eyes or ears rather on a singer named Rachel Schain. She's still up and coming, but she's on MySpace and Facebook! Tori Amos is one of her biggest influences.
