2:59 minutes in the water

brooke fraser - something in the water
this is possibly the best 2:59 i've heard in a while.

brooke fraser is a new zealand pop/folk artist, who's most famous song would be lifeline (i distinctly remember this song being played on home & away). she has been getting a lot of radio airplay over this song and i managed to catch a radio interview with brooke while i was driving.

she said how she had become very addicted to twitter during the writing and recording process of her new album, flags. instead of being m.i.a. for 2 years while recording (which generally happens to every commercial artist), she felt like twitter had allowed her fans to join her on a journey as she wrote each song. unlike before, she is not marketing a foreign product, but she is promoting an album with songs that people felt like they owned. i thought it was a very interesting perspective on twitter.
