Bjork!! :: giggles :: Erm, okay, just had to get that out.

Nobody I know likes her. I like her, even though I've only heard one of her songs. Will find CDs later, 'cause I thought her songs were really, really good.

Has anyone here mentioned Alanis Morisette pre-"Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie"? And has anyone heard of Switchblade Kittens? Gotta love their song "All Cheerleaders Die". They're awesome (they've got one guy in their group, but they're still considered a girl group), and they absolutely ROCK.

And I agree that Bonnie Raitt plays slide greatly. All bow before Bonnie, for she is the Queen...

"Has anyone here mentioned Alanis Morisette pre-"Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie"?"

Does your daughter know that Alanis had two pop albums released prior to her breakthrough rock/alternative Jagged Little Pill? DANCE/POP albums! Alanis (1991) and Now Is The Time (1992) sold about 300,000 copies between them, but were only available in the USA as imports. She won the 1992 Most Promising New Artist Juno. When Jagged Little Pill was released her previous pop incarnation became a national inside joke. Download "Too Hot" or "Feel Your Love" (both from her first album) for a good chuckle, or buy either CD used off ebay if you feel rich. Both are out of print and will never be re-released.
