<< It's nice to hear a joni song frequently on the radio, even if it's not her. >> I've just got back from seeing Two Weeks Notice, which was the only film I could get in to see at my local cinema. Not bad at all; I was waiting for the film to start asking "why have I wasted my money on such a piece of fluff?" (the same thought that must go through people's minds when they buy a Christina Aguillera record) - but actually I quite enjoyed it. That Hugh Grant will come to be recognised as a consummate light comedy actor and a master of split-second-perfect comic timing. Anyway, so, yes, Counting Crows covering BYT: I was pleasantly surprised, I must say, especially given that I've never liked them and had a particular distaste for Adam Duritz's voice (too whiny and self-pitying for my liking). I think they do a pretty good job making such a familiar song sound contemporary; it's certainly far better than the Janet Jackson and Amy Grant renditions. Shame the rest of the soundtrack was so predictable - great as they are, do we *really* need to hear I Feel Good or Respect again?? Nice to see a little cameo from Norah Jones, though.
