These songs have nothing in common apart from the fact that they can both apparently be found on recent Starbucks compilation CDs and that they are both sung by beautiful ladies with beautiful voices. And they're also both on the sparser, slower side. Okay, so maybe they have more in common than I thought. So here they are:


A very bare, lo-fi rendition of this song which I might not find extremely remarkable if not for Zooey's vocals - holy shit, people, she sounds beyond amazing here. This has to easily be her most impressive vocal performance; she sounds so strong and sultry and just... awesome. It makes my spine all tingly. And really makes me want some new She & Him material, like, right this very moment.



More new Neko! The title track from her upcoming album, this is pretty much the complete opposite of "People Got a Lotta Nerve" (which can be found here if you didn't catch it when I first mentioned it). It is very simple and slow and hauntingly beautiful. And it is similar to the aforementioned in one way: they both grow on me more with each listen. I love the sad yet slightly whimsical na-na-nas and the little toy piano (I think that's what it is) parts throughout; the lyrics are quite nice as well. And of course, Neko always sounds fantastic - I could listen to this woman sing the phone book and love every second of it.
