absolutely! probably the very reason why i like Sophie B. Hawkins is because i was driving one very early morning along a winding road in northern luzon (philippines), and her voice came through the radio, so clear and plaintive that it seems to serve as the soundtrack for the beautiful mountainside scenery. her song was "as i lay me down" and i will always associate it with that particular windy morning when no one else was about and dawn was just making its presence felt. same with Frente!'s "bizarre love triangle". angela hart's rickie lee jones- like voice sounds so fragile but quite electrifying especially since i listened to that song one morning, too, when i was packing my bags and leaving town. that slow, long ride, i keep hitting the "repeat" in the cd player of the car. now, whenever i hear frente!'s BLT, i always remember mornings when people are still asleep and when the early risers are already going about their business. joseph (loves the very early mornings when all's fresh and pure)
