Sarcastic, sardonic, plush musical layering. Also the directness Tom spoke about. Roman hit on something I've never consciously noticed about Lisa, but explains one of the reasons I like her so much. Her vocal phrasing is unusual and very expressive. It's sometimes standard, sometimes not. (Now that I think about it, all of my absolute favorite musical artists don't use standard phrasing or only use it occasionally.) Thanks, Roman, for pointing that out!

I'm not seller, but sold about 10 CDs by Lisa (mostly moved by desire to share with people her music, as well as to grab few $$$ to buy her rare CDs;) - best way to sold her music - is to give it listen for free for 1-2 weeks - 100% people buying few more albums after that:)!
