Introducing... Alicia Witt!

The actress character that I wanted to punch in the face during Two Weeks Notice (not because she did a bad job but because she was moving in on my Sandra Bullock and trying to take her place) is actually a singer/songwriter.  Who knew?  Apparently I've been behind the times because Alicia Witt released her first self-titled EP a year ago - oops.  I guess that also means critics didn't take lightly to her music.

That's really unfortunate because I've heard her song "Anyway" and it's actually quite beautiful.  Nothing out of the ordinary, no crazy costumes or music videos, but just an honestly written song.  And of course, I'm a severe sucker for the piano driven tune.  I recall a day that Minnie Driver released an album - which actually had critics quite surprised by her talent - and playing that album for various friends.  I wouldn't tell them who it was until they had a good listen to a few of her songs.  When I did reveal the actress' name, they were in shock.  Sometimes, an actress/actor can actually cross both horizons (or vise versa).  For those who can, I applaud them.  For those who can't (ie. Madonna, Scott Baio, Hilary Duff, Jamie Foxx) stop it.  Please.  Stick to what you're good at.

Thank you Alicia for sharing your songs with us!
