You Must Watch This: Róisín Murphy Street Performance.
This is endlessly brilliant.
Róisín Murphy gave a street performance this weekend outside St. Paul's church in London's Covent Garden. She performed totally acoustic versions of "You Know Me Better" and "Overpowered."
So brave. So amazing. So Róisín. Continue to surprise me, Róisín. I'm loving it.
(A big thanks to the Róisín Murphy fan blog for the heads up.)

She's amazing! "Overpowered" is a work of brilliance. When is she going to conquer America??

I'm kinda hoping she doesn't conquer America. I like being in on this little secret that the rest of the public doesn't know about. Stay that way Róisín - but maybe just tour the States a bit. :)

FUCK!!!.... I love her! It's about time America took notice! The new album is stunning!

Agree. As a gay man who grew up an Irish Catholic, now a praticing doctor: her prescience/depth is stunning.
"We are animal, one unbroken chain"
"Alien feelings...we must accept".
I understand these (as Roisin is Irish too) as expressions of the end-point of trains of thought where one tries to understand the sense/nonsense of one's place in the world.
Brilliant.
