Billie Davis-I want you to be my baby

love the carnaby street stage set. to paraphrase godard - all you need is a girl a mircophone and a handclap. christopher james smith has pushed this billie davis on me. she's a little wooden for my taste but no bad. i saw eleanor friedberger of the fiery furnaces sing in los angeles and she is the real deal. i like them alot even if tropical icy land is sort of a rip off of never marry a railroad man by the late great shocking blue. rest in peace mariska veres - now that was a frontwoman!
