Jeff Hanson - Jeff Hanson

Pandora is certainly the most interesting Internet radio station I’ve come across; the songs it plays for you depend on your opinions of the last songs it’s played for you. It still can’t really pinpoint your tastes, since you can only tell the site if you liked the song or you didn’t. No in-between answers (outside of not answering), and no answers like “the guitar bits sucked, but the singing was good.” So when it played Jeff Hanson, a fellow described on last.fm as “Elliott Smith if he came back as a 16-year old girl,” I can’t help but wonder if the site played him for me because of his decidedly feminine voice, or because of his music. I would hope it’s both. Anyway, if you can wrap your mind around his voice, then you should have no problems enjoying this.

    Do you find it ironic that his last name is shared with a band from the 90’s wherein its members were guys who kept getting confused for girls?

    Also, your diligent posting is making us other folks look bad.

    It might make you look bad in blogging terms, but it makes you look much better in social life terms.

    I just queued up lily frost and this guy. For a bit, I thought I was listening to lily frost. You have managed to somehow understate how much this guy sounds like a girl. May be a bit too mellow for me today, but who knows! Seems interesting.
