Review of "Twilight Girl" by Michael Pendragon:
"This is the best... I've seen of yours to date... it's got a really nice look and great sound. The song has a definite mood to it: a sustained quiet sadness, a sense of loss. Bluesy, but in a reflective, mellow way. I'm having a little (okay, a lot of) difficulty following the narrative, but I get the impression that it's supposed to be abstract. I'm thinking that Twilight Girl is the memory of a lover who died, possibly in a car or plane crash, but that's just the feeling I get from the song. You've got a terrific voice -- in too many of the live performance videos, it's often hard to hear you over the music, but in this one your voice and the music maintain the perfect balance. There are times when your voice gives the impression that you could sing quite smoothly if you wanted to -- or, that you once sang quite smoothly, but ruined your voice from too many cigarettes (legal and otherwise) and drinks. Either way, the end result has a very distinctive sound and a strong personality..."
