Nikka Costa April 25, 2002

One of my favorite female artists...her voice is just so powerful. And this is my favorite song by her, followed by another! I was torn between posting this one, or the live one (which was equally fantastic). This one won out because the crowd in the live one kind of spoiled it. I don't know why she didn't play the guitar here though...hhhmm?

Yes, she does Ben. I love it when a woman (in particular) belts it out like that...gives me shivers. Believe it or not, I heard about her through Britney Spears several years ago...she'd noted her as one of her favorites and I thought I'd check her out. Glad I did.

(FTR...please check out the post under this one...I posted two in a row but the other one's a heck of a lot of fun and I don't want you to miss out. Cheers, Deb)

That was terrific Deb. I hadn't heard of her before. I may have heard some of her songs maybe, but don't remember. Maybe she wasn't playing guitar because she was concentrating on recording her vocals? I dunno. Does she usually play while she sings? I would love to hear more. Thanks :)

btw, she looks like she would be a fun person to know eh?

She does has a powerful voice and you have to love a finger-snapper!

Mel...I agree - she was probably just focusing on her vocals which is why she was guitarless. I just know that when I've seen her live stuff she plays too. She does look like she'd be fun to know..I liked the little giggle at the end.

Finger snappers and hand clappers are all good by me Barb.

Nice voice.
Barb bet me too it! Like the handclap, I love the finger snap! But only in the musical setting.
