I actually always only knew two of her songs ("Sunny came home" and "Wichita skyline") from the "Lilith Fair" DVD I got (A DVD featuring artists like Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Sheryl Crow...). Then I recently started to watch the tv show "Susan" whenever I couldn´t fall asleep because it´s being aired in the middle of the night and I was totally hooked by the main theme. Just LOVED it. I soon found out that it is called "Nothin on me" and performed by Shawn Colvin as well. Last week, when I was in Berlin to visit Caro and Daniel, I found one of Shawn´s CDs in a record store for nice price. It´s her 1996 album "A few small repairs" that also features the three songs I just mentioned. Now I have to say that it probably was a good idea to buy that CD because I totally love it! "Get out of this house" would have to be another of my favorite songs now. But I am most happy about the fact that I got "Nothing on me" now. Its slightly different from the tv show version. Well, of course it is the WHOLE song but it also sounds slightly different. I just LOVE it! Does anyone else know Shawn Calvin? I am only starting to get more info about her music and stuff and came across her website: www.shawncolvin.com/I just saw that she´s got a whole lot of other albums...seems like there still is a lot I need to listen to. source of picture: www.spokane7.com/editions/story.asp?ID=20584

I have always thought highly of Shawn Colvin's talent since the days of "Sunny Came Home," (which received lots of radio airplay) and the Lilith Fair concerts but, unfortunately, I am not familiar with most of her work. More recently, she did a very pretty ballad for the film Runaway Bride called "Never Saw Blue Like That." Good stuff!

I really enjoy her music, still, after all these years. She also sang in one episode of "the L word".
