Avril Lavigne sings Oh Holy Night.

Enrico Caruso's performance is the ultimate, the standard of Oh Holy Night. Leontyne Price's recording of Oh Holy Night  is the technical master work, near  perfection.

Avril Lavigne's performance of Oh Holy Night is daring, authentic, moving. Accolades to Avril Lavigne for creative risk taking with her performances.

popular music is a lagging indicator to most of us

Unless one is an artist and attuned to psychic forces just coming into existence popular music is a lagging indicator to most of us. We get our Robert Johnson via Eric Clapton and our Blind Faith via Delaney and Bonnie. Mozart we discover from a television commercial jingle. Yet music speaks to what is currently about to happen.

Put your ear to the ground. What's about to happen and how does it sound before it comes into existence? Someone hears what's happening; is it you?
