   @nexthoudini edit: . . . to determine what good music sounds like.
   Williams has more music and stark raw sack in one power chord than the BF flamers combined could muster in an entire performance.

   @nexthoudini Did you see the CMT “Crossroads” w/Lucinda & Elvis (Costello) from 2001? It was one of the first of that show. Still going strong 9 yrs later.

    Anger, spite, fire – come enjoy all these things from a superb singer.
    The way she curls her lip and belts out that gravelly snarl – so good.

    I could see ol’ John Lennon himself putting this song on one of his albums.

    Have you ever listened to a Lucinda William’s CD? She’s an excellent musician with 3 Grammys under her belt so far and was named “America’s best songwriter” by Time magazine in 2002. The song is simplistic and a little repetitive, but it has a nice bluesy, gritty riff to it and makes for a good rock song. Williams doesn’t have the best voice I’ve ever heard and would never make it on American Idol, but it works for her.

    @onefodderunit I can see how high-class you are by your spelling of “gay”. And Ben Folds is always hilarious. There’s something to be said about tongue-in-cheek comedy in lyrics; all the best songwriters have senses of humor. Part of the reason why Lucinda Williams doesn’t fall into that category. And, uh, I forgot to mention the supremely talented Tim Minchin. But it’s not that I don’t like this; it’s that this is bad music. Untalented drivel. Repetitive pap I don’t see how anyone could like.

    Ben Folds? How ghey. No wonder you don’t appreciate this.

    @onefodderunit Yeah, because you can tell from a comment what music I was reared on. To tell you the truth, my favorite musician is Elvis Costello, for the great voice and lyrics. Out of today’s music, I like Ben Folds, the Old 97s, and a lot of folk. But go ahead, assume my musical rearing simply because I point out how horrid a song “Joy” is, how utterly joyless, repetitive, and awful the music and lyrics are, and how the singing’s nothing to write home about either.

    When reared on Black Eyed Peas, you’re not expected to appreciate a performance like this one.

    Why would anyone ever record the song “Joy”? It’s the worst abomination of a song ever created, with the worst lyrics ever to match.

    This was part of her previous band. Doug Pettibone on guitar had been with her since “World Without Tears.
