June 9, 2014 Music Monday: Ingrid Michaelson
A few weeks ago I picked up the album Lights Out by Ingrid Michaelson. I’d heard her song Girls Chase Boys on the radio a few times and liked her voice and the style of the song. If I’m understanding the song’s message correctly, it’s saying, “Hey, people break up all the time and the […]
