Slanted and CYHSY

I got two CDs from the Library today, Slanted and Enchanted, and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. It's been a pretty mixed bag, though. The Pavement CD is really good, my favorite song being Conduit For Sale. I wuvs teh spoken word. I haven't listened to all of it yet, but I like what I hear so far. On the other hand, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah is... well... a disappointment, to say the least. I was really expecting a lot out of it, and I thought the actual music was good, but I just could not get over the singer's voice. I don't know what it is about it, but it drives me insane! Just like that Diane Rehm. Usually I can tune anybody out, (a very handy skill at times), but not Rehm. I really wish I could appreciate CYHSY, but I just can't ignore Alec. (I think that's his name). I don't want to be mean or anything, but gahh.
