Never again would be soon enough for me.

Never heard this artist before but cool tune.

Hey Suzen - Never mind the nattering nabobs of negativism (strangely abundant on RP !?!) Who knows what compels a person to announce to the world that they don't like something.

The only ones that matter are the comments that are funny or positive.

Anyway - This is a great tune! I went to look for it on download on your website - but it linked me to ITunes. Would rather buy directly from you so you get the whole dollar and not just the few cents. I'll check back another time... Thanks!

Suzen, next time remember to tune your guitar before recording. Thanks.

This is one of the worst sequences of miserable, droning songs I've ever heard. I wonder why musicians make the effort,and use their talents, to record dross like this. ecch!

Bloody hell — here's another one comin' round: "Song to the Siren" from Mortal Coil. A perfect segue to this song ... which is not a compliment.

Very nice. I did think of Mazzy Star initially, with a touch of Kristin Hersh & Lucinda Williams. Just went and downloaded this from iTunes.

is this really from 1964?

Jup, sounds like Hope Sandoval has been hitting the Four Roses and passed out in a Kentucky truckstop.

I do like her voice as well and the guitar sound is very clear and deep. It seems like a lot of producers can get complacent with sound production for acoustic guitars; that doesn't sound to be the case here. What the hell do I know? Anyhow, nice song.

Stylishly out of tune. Yay!

Reminds me a of the singer from Lone Justice. Nice.

Far better than 90% of the female solo artists out there.

Posted 15 years ago by jedley [ Reply ]

I really like this, very soulful somewhat reminds me of Bonny Rait in the vocals.

Posted 15 years ago by kylemichael [ Reply ]

Love the little rrrrraunchy tone that drips into the vocals every now & then - roughens it and gives a nice counterpoint to the guitar.

And yeah, I can get the Mazzy Star reference.

and ... what a great segue into This Mortal Coil. Bliss.

I love this song and it was a great treat to hear Suzen outside of SecondLife where I first became familiar with her music. I hope that happens more often!

This sounds better and better the more I hear it. What he said

Posted 15 years ago by peter_james_bond [ Reply ]

Sultry, haunting, dreamy... I'm hearing a stripped down Hope Sandoval/Mazzy Star... and that's not a bad thing. Very, very nice.

Please come to Seattle!

Coucou Suzen,

I heard your music and love it too much.
I fall in love with "Scrath".
You have a marvellous voice timbre and the guitar's comping is very soft !!
We can easily imagine brush drums and double bass behind.

Marvellous Work !!

Excuse my poor English I currently speak French.

Reminiscent of Mazzy Star.

It's great fun to have the artist herself on the song comment page! I'm enjoying your music, Suzen!

Posted 15 years ago by Otomi [ Reply ]

Very nice. I really like this. I will have to look into more stuff from this artist. Another jem I never would have heard, if not for RP.

The most flattering thing is, when others want to cover one of my songs. So far I have been approached by 4 musicians that want to cover it, and the last friend that asked, sent me a link to my YouTube Video of it, which I had forgotten about.
This is the Early version of it, back when I wrote it in 2007.
Thanks again for the feedback :)
