Bic Runga's new website would be pretty cool if it idn't need Flash 8 or something- it actually has about eight or so songs on there to listen to that are good-quality. If you're a fan you should check them out.

Also, according to her discography, these are the only tracks by her that I don't have and have never heard:
Somewhere in the Night, Winning Arrow LP. (I might buy this one, since I probably could find it. Or I could hang on till the limited edition version of Birds comes out, because it might be on there... man I hope it comes out soon! The BC limited edition came out the next year...)
Something Good (Submariner mix) from the Something Good LP- okay, I've obviously heard the song, but I'd like to hear this version...
All Fall Down, Suddenly Strange LP- the chances of my finding this are slim, I think.
Interstellar Over Drive Mix, from the Roll Into One LP- Roll Into One is a funny song for a single.... I've never heard this but I'd love it. Sounds like it's another remix of Drive but hey, I can't get enough...
I Don't Mean It- Sway LP. I dunno what this one would be about. :P

Okay, how can I say this? I would really, really love copies of these. If any of you have them and could yousendit.com them to me, I could swap it with you for pretty much anything else in her collection. I love Bic's work and I buy her albums, but these are all minor tracks off singles and I can't get them any other way... oh, flist, if you have any idea where I might go...

Bic Runga: Birds

This is just a preliminary reviewish thinky thing, so don’t take it too seriously, okey dokey? And a quick recommendation: like so much of Bic’s opus, this albums is best listened to in silence and turned up quite loud, so you can hear everything, at least for the first hearing or so. Um, this will contain spoilers for Birds, if you, you know, believe in spoilers for music. I know I prefer to listen to an album firsthand before reading reviews and things so… Anyway, first I’ll blether for a bit about the album as a whole, and then I’ll go through it track by track and say something about each of them. Okay? Okay.

Disclaimer: All the lyrics quoted here from Birds come directly from my own hearing, as there’s no lyric resource around; if you’re hearing it differently do mention it. Lyrics quoted from Beautiful Collision and Drive come from www.bicrunga.com. All the lyrics quoted herein are the property of Bic Runga: go out and buy the CD, it’s really worth it. I LOVE it.

here goes! )
