Also, I used to subscribe to Details magazine, and they'd send out compilation CDs all the time... pretty sure both Supernova and Better than Nothing were on one of them.

And i listen to these new women....Tone Lo or Sia or whoever.....Phair influenced SO MANY artists, male and female who started being aware of pop songs in a different form. I miss 93/94 so much.
