I was considering checking her out, but the more I listened to I'm Wide Awake Its Morning the more I realized how terrible of a vocalist she was so I never bothered.

This.

...and that says alot because Conor Oberst can't carry a tune to save his life, and he totally pisses on her voice.

I've heard a few songs from Brand New Dance and Stumble Into Grace, nothing jumps out as extraordinary to me so, yea.. not a fan.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.
