Khaela makes me smile. Really, that's what it comes down to. I was expecting cool dance moves and heart-hugging vocals. But I didn't expect her to be an expert storyteller or a performance artist. She not only talked about where the songs came from and why she wrote them, but she actually started to deconstruct what makes a song, how creativity works from the inside out! And as always, I appreciate her lyrics, her storytelling within the song. And it's the simple lines of hers that make her music so relatable. Like the line: "If something in the deli isle makes you cry, of course I'd put my arm around you and I'd walk you outside, through the sliding doors - why would I mind?" that end bit the "why would I mind?" adds so much more to the story, it shows a certain depth that I can't quite put my finger on, but it's there.
Anyway, she was real and hilarious and so. damn. adorable. I wish I could upload this one clip I have of her singing "Babay" because when her voice hits the top note, it's so pure and exact, it's just gorgeous.
But lets settle for a passionate khaela photo:

Okay, I'm done about The Blow. I promise. For a while, anyway. :)
