I've Been Thinking - Handsome Boy Modeling School feat. Cat Power



Intriguing little number this one. Cat Power has a wonderful voice, but as her own material tends towards the dark and downbeat it's good to hear it in an altogether smoother, more seductive setting. "White People", the album this is taken from, is a odd duck. A curate's egg of a record, but there a few tracks, like this one which are quite special. It also has a collaboration with Jamie Cullum, which is astonishingly good. It's not that good, but by the jazz midget's usual standards it's quite something.
