Ryan Bresee (host)
Yup! That's how I listened to it when considering it for my ballot.

Hi Ryan! After hearing "the Returner", I spent a few minutes searching my iTunes and googling, because I'm pretty sure I've heard the tune in the movie soundtrack of The Triplets Of Belleville. Couldn't find what I was looking for, but there's an eerie similarity. Any provenance of the Allison Russell song available?

Ryan Bresee (host)
Bruce, I did a quick search and don't see anything.

Benoît
Cold Specks: is her voice more metallic (sharp), and less smokey than years ago?

Controversial comment ahead. Artist doesn't want to give music to jurors? Delete. NEXT!

I'm trying to figure that out, B. I think that's part of it. It sounds a little weaker and strained. I hear that more often with singers in their senior years though. She is still young.

Ryan Bresee (host)
tic, that was how I removed them from my list. It's tough to settle on a final ballot, so sometimes things like this help.
