04/22/2003 Entry: "Liz Phair"

'Bout time

Liz Phair has three songs from her upcoming album up on her web site. Very pop-rock, even slicker than whitechocolatespaceegg, which means she'll probably lose whatever she had left of her original alternative fan base. But what do alternative fans know? After only two listens, "Extraordinary" is continually buzzing through my head, and "Rock Me" is as straightforwardly lustful as she's ever been. And if you think the first single, "Why Can't I?" is too soft, try listening to the lyrics: "Here we go, we're at the beginning/We haven't fucked yet but my head is spinning." I'll withhold final judgment until I hear the album, but I think Phair has achieved something miraculous--she's become the pop-rock equivalent of Madonna: sexy, intelligent, free-wheeling, and artistically ambitious with the chops to back it up. And if she ever gets a hold of a mass audience, she could be even more important.
