The Case Continues – Ute Lemper
Paper Bag – Fiona Apple
Missed – PJ Harvey

and then there’s heartbreaks like this…

I feel like my age is showing. I don’t know who most of those artists are…. but the Angus & Julia song came out in 2007. That’s kinda recent. I think. lol.

Check our William Fitzsimmons The Sparrow and the Crow (2009). He is a therapist who went into the music business and did a chronical of his divorce on the above album. Although parts are repetitive, some of the duets between the two people on a few songs are amazing. Joshua Radin also has some really good heartbreak material.
