oh, diana

I went to a Steve Bell concert on Saturday night--to read James K's excellent thoughts on that, visit http://theplacelite.blogspot.com/2006/04/steve-bell-et-al.html. I couldn't agree more, James, so I won't bother regurgetating what you said.
Also playing with Steve was a young woman named Diana Pops. I liked her songs, and her cd was only ten bucks, so I bought it. Having listened to it for three days, I now feel well enough informed to comment. WARNING: If you are looking for cookie-cutter lyrics from a cookie-cutter girl, you won't like this cd. If you are looking for the next "Christian Pop" sensation, complete with shallow observations on "the Christian life" that have nothing to do with real life, Diana Pops isn't for you. If you like three chord songs that all sound the same, you'll have to look elsewhere. However, if you're looking for lyrics that actually make you stop and think, if you're looking for an original sound produced by a killer voice , if you're looking for real reflections on faith and life, you'd better visit http://www.signpostmusic.com/pops/pops.htm and listen to some clips. And then buy the cd, and continue buying her cds until the day you die.
