I Don't



Cat Power - I Don't Blame You

I felt like there were too many recent posts about synth-pop and electronic arrangements, so... I bring you 2003's You Are Free. I know most, but not all, of her albums front-to-back and I'm confident that this is the best. "I Don't Blame You" is a simple piano-only arrangement, with exposed vocals and a beautiful refrain. Like many of Cat Power's best songs, the raw power of her voice conveys more feeling than most artists can achieve in an entire album.

  1. Confident, eh?
    I can't completely disagree but it's hard to pick a favorite album by Cat Power. Girl has got some vocals!
