Something you may have missed
M'learned colleague Sir Ian of Youngsford has written a piece about the artists who were shamefully ignored by you - yes, YOU, the record-buying public - in 2011.
It's a cracking read, and it had me dashing off to YouTube to check out a young Liverpudlian singer called Marsha Ambrosius (try saying that in a Sean Connery voice). She's signed to Clive Davis' label J Records, has been nominated for two Grammys and sounds like the musical lovechild of Mary J Blige and Stevie Wonder - IE very good indeed.
While you're listening to the following songs, all luscious melody and soothing strings, remember how many times you were subjected to Price Tag in 2011, then write a sternly-worded letter to everyone in the music industry.
Marsha Ambrosius - Far Away
