Life is sooooo long when you're 16

"I wholly apologize for my title Kristeen but It's true isn't it?.. I have owned "Kill The Father" and "London Cry" for about 3 weeks and I swear I cannot stop listening to both discs. I really should be writing a review for "London cry" because in my humble opinion, it really is the better buy if you just want to get one. "Kill The Father" is a CD you should own though. You definitely will be missing out on an incredibly good song (it's a numbered limited edition as well). Hell, Morrissey said it was the best song he has heard in 50 years! Here's his review:
"Kristeen's single is 'Kill the Father' and is the best song I've heard for 50 years. I especially love the line "strangle Bowie with/his neckerchief" which, you must agree, is quite an idea. Kristeen is from St Louis - which, I am told, is another way of saying Mars [although I really shouldn't say this in view of the fact that we play St Louis in November.] Kristeen is a dramatic woman - monumental vocal gifts, unwalkable heels, hypnotic way with the keyboard, and underneath it all she is still 16 (and a half.) I watch her set every night and I am dazed. I was thrilled by audience reactions to Kristeen - especially in Iceland and Italy where their intakes of breath could be heard as Kristeen ripped into the high notes. She is an artist who adapts the world to her own needs, which I appreciate." - Morrissey
That says it all doesn't it? Don't forget to buy "London Cry." < (also a numbered limited edition)

Kristeen Young's a genius!

"I've only heard Life's Not Short It's Sooo Long (this song's title is written incorrectly in amazon's track list) and it's amazing! Can't wait to listen to The Orphans album! Kristeen absolutely rocks!"
