The latest LP is consistently brilliant throughout and how she didn't win the Mercury prize is a tragedy. She's one of the few artists of today that I think will stand the test of time, she just keeps getting better with every LP released.

We were glass house girls In our plastic wigs and pearls In a crazy house From within and from without You could see right through See the things that people do There's no place to hide When you're lit from the inside Overblown People like us From broken homes Never throw stones Leave us alone We were glass house girls Full of joie de vivre and verve Built a house of glass Out of fragments from the blast When it's all revealed Must be seen to be believed Little raincoat sister Weren't allowed to dream Made a new reality People who live in glass houses No Every glass house girl Keeps a secret from the world What d'you think you see A naive transparency? On a stage of glass How long can the play last? (You see) every glass house child Has a trouble inside Overblown Little pieces of a broken dream Scattered in a million different places People who live in glass (houses) People who live in glass (houses) No (No) Overblown What d'you think you see A naive transparency? On a stage of glass How long can the play last?
