Very special guestpost: Dan on his friend Carly Blackman, aka Carly Sings:
Carly is one of my favorite people that I'm lucky to have befriended. What puts her music apart from others are the delicate intricacies she places in her lyrics. With an in depth knowledge of literature, culture, & a tactile sense of the world, her songs come out dreamy and introspective with a touch of longing. Her voice can be compared to Jane Birkin, but her melodies are richer and have a modern touch to them. Would her songs sound better in French? I don't know. Sung in English, rather than being a typical chanteuse, I enjoy the French ambiance that surrounds her songs.

Oh! Please repost "You Are Traveling" by Carly. I love that song so much. It makes me think of my darling girlfriend.
