drbirdsong Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I don't use the genre space. If something shows up in there I delete it. I like what I like. I actually started putting the month and year in there so I could arrange things chronologically. For instance if something came out this month I would list it: 03/12.

I have a lot of respect for her as she has (so far) stuck to her roots. It would be very easy for her to sex it up, hire some producers and make a bag of money doing a crossover/pop/dance thing.
