I don’t like women singers, really. Linda Ronstadt
, I like, and Stevie Nicks
, and Tracy Ullman
. So what are the odds
that my two favorite female singers both played one-episode bit parts on
Frasier?
Sara Melson I checked out after watching
the rerun with her appearance as Carrie, the men’s store clerk.
Last night I saw the Zooey Deschanel
episode where she plays a childhood friend of Roz. Like a lot of people, I liked
Zooey in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
and Elf
and Failure to Launch. There’s
just something about her, you know.
A year or so ago I was surprised to come across videos of hers on YouTube. Her singing was delightful, soulful and, well, perky. You know, one of those perky soul singers. I listened to her Hawaiian version of I Should Have Known Better and knew I had to have more.
A quick search on Amazon revealed not only
an album of her songs, but an album of her songs for only $5. I immediately
downloaded Volume One
and listened to it nonstop for days. Then I downloaded Volume Two
, still just $5, and liked it even better.
Then there was a Christmas
album, too.
If you’ve not heard She & Him, head over to YouTube and give it a listen. Let me know what you
think.
