Shawn is much better live and solo than with the production (that made her more popular and famous) but when you see just her, the raw talent is overwhelming. I followed her in the 1980s Boston folk scene; when I lived in Santa Cruz in 1995, I told my musician friends "You have to go to this show" and they thought I was crazy liking this pop singer...until they saw the show. They were all converts, she is a phenomenon live.

Never heard this tune 'til I heard a live version on wxrt here in Chicago; thought it was her, but wasn't certain, until I found this............just flawless and she is a superstar, more than the current crop of glittery dancing songstresses. I dare Rhianna, Taylor Swift, Aguilera, Lady GaGa, or their contemporaries, to write a song this good.

I once had to explain "Avalanche" to my sister. It IS about being in love, but WITH THE WRONG PERSON.

This is the first song of her's I ever heard. I loved it then bought the album for my sister and family (new). Her colicky son loved it. It was the only thing that soothed him. I was the favorite aunt, for awhile.

The first dozen or so times I heard this song I thought it was about being in love with a rare person. Now I realize it is about Self-discovery. First heard it on "Austin City Limits", probably 10 years ago. Anyone know to get a copy of that? Featured Lyle Lovett, Allison Krauss, others.
