Just popped Nerina Pallot into my CD drive. Yat was 'pimping' to me weeks back about her. On the same league as Rachel Yamagata, Nerina sings her own kind of music, mostly acoustics. For those who don't know any of these artistes, just think of a subtler version of Natalie Imbruglia.

Let me sleep in peace today,
let me dream of the heavens above.
When the only shade I see is gray,
I want the shade called love.

So let me sleep well tonight,
let me sleep long.
Because I need the light,
to shed on all that is wrong.
