Most of you are probably sick of this song already, but her unique way of playing it when she first came out raised a lot of eyebrows and probably got her more sales and airplay.
Cool stuff.

I'd never heard it before guess I live under a rock). Very cool.

Never heard it either because I don't listen to the radio.

Kind of cool...but Jaco Pastorius did something very similar back in 1979...with no samplers (I think it was delays, not sure how exactly he did it with 1979 technology), and on a bass.

Granted, Jaco was probably out of his mind at the time so it's an aquired taste in terms of actual music...but I think it's cool.

Well, various people have done variations on this: Robert Fripp's "Frippertronics" made from a pair of open-reel tape decks with a single loop of tape running between, Todd Rundgren's tour for the album "A Wizard, A True Star", going back to the father of multi-track Les Paul's "Les Paulverizer".

KT is not even the first woman to do this...Ursula Dudziak was doing solo vocal performances with electronics many years ago.

The important point is that KT wrote a really good album and discovered - or re-discovered - a very inexpensive way to tour and get a lot of attention. During one period last year we saw three female singer-songwriters touring in this manner KT, Feist and Imogene Heap in one two month period.
