I’ll try to see hope that is right in front of me.

So, you know how it is. You're clicking through Google image when suddenly you see a photograph of a lovely young woman.


"Who is that lovely young woman?" you ask yourself. So you investigate and you find out her name is Adrina Thorpe, and she is a musician. Well, now you're intrigued. You want to know more, hear more.

So you go to her web site, where you learn she is clearly trying to turn your head by posing in your favorite color.

And you listen to a few of her songs and whadaya know--they're quite beautiful. But they're only clips and you want to hear full songs so you head to YouTube (via video Google). Sure enough:

This song is called "Sorry."



(Her MySpace page, BTW, lists her influences as including sarah mclachlan, tori amos, jewel, coldplay, palo alto, loreena mckennitt, avril lavigne, alanis morissette, norah jones, sixpence none the richer, dido, and natalie merchant.)

And this is "Round The Bend,' with a short introduction by Thorpe explaining what sparked the song.



Since you like to support musicians by presenting them to your vast blogreading audience, you write up a post.

Finally, you also discover on that her second album is coming up. And you think to yourself, if only you knew someone who still occasionally writes music reviews for an online magazine.

Suddenly it dawns on you...
