I dunno, man, I guess she's alright.
I have...uh...Kala. It's pretty good for what it is. Paper Planes is a cool song anyways, I can't remember much about the rest of the album.
I guess I haven't really listened to it.

I'll admit I kinda like some of her stuff, although my interest has ebbed. Kala has a few memorable tracks, particularly the first one that cribs the shit out of The Modern Lovers's song Roadrunner.

speaking of modern lovers, kim and i are off to see jonathan richman in october..
bizarre he's coming to town. even stranger that byrne is coming to town..

i guess she is kinda cute...can't dance worth a shit, which some apparently like, and she is singlehandedly bringing day-glo back into our lives.

but didn't she hint at leaving the music industry to pursue a career in fashion/art?
