Remember her one hit with “Sleeping Satellite”. Great song and different than what was on the radio at the time. Her album, Great Expectations, was not was I was expecting. The songs were all over the place in terms of style. What are your thoughts?
I don't know the album, but I loved this when it was released; don't think I'd heard it since.
It reminds me of my brother - he's a 'tard (genuinely) - and he thought she was singing about the *seats* still being dry, rather than the *seas*.

I always think of this in a cluster of three with Des'ree "You Gotta Be" and Dionne Farris' "I Know."

I was just listening to this yesterday, after 15 years of not hearing it. Weird to see it brought up here.

Wasn't it used a lot as background music for different things? It has an ethereal sound to me.

Steeltown is the best song on that record. The only reason I even know it is because my roommate gave me the CD during our first year in college. The CD is long gone, and that's the only song that survives in my music library from her.
It's a great song, everyone should check it out.
