The best part of the end of the year is that people's who job it is to tell me what to like, produce "best of" lists, condensing a year's worth of professional criticism, ignored by yours truly, into handy concise lists that I do not ignore.

This woman, KT Tunstall was actually part of a radiophonic list, on the CBC interviewed as part of a best of 2007 etc.. I started searching for her music based on her adorable Scottish burr and because she had a lot of nice things to say about hitting 30 and finding your path a little later in life.

Anyways the point being that I can't decide whether to worship her in the older sister kind of way, or in the I'm drooling at her boots and the adorable geeky "excitement" in covering the Jackson 5, and the striped teeshirt and the way she says "merci beaucoup" at the end of this live set. And yes her album is great, and you should go buy it.

Sigh....Those boots.
