    Please keep uploading more videos or the whole show online... We don't get "The Daily Show" in India and I'm kinda addicted to it. It's like my daily get away. Hope you consider my request!

    love everything, her voice, the melody, and lyrics. To each his own I guess. To all the naysayers...there's plenty of wealthy country western singers that whine and lament their hard lives, dressing like cowboys and never sat on a horse. They're well loved by lots, to me they all sound the same.

    Her new album is easily the best album that I have heard this year in any genre. The reviews have been from good to great. If you are only into today's lousy pop music do not bother. That is not what she is about.

    I've seen Hurray for the Riff Raff three times in Birmingham, AL. They are always great live with an Americana feel. She has a very unique and beautiful voice. Somehow though, it never comes through on the television appearances. This was an odd choice for such a platform. Her chief song writing partner left the band after their previous album, so she may be going in a different direction.

      Theodore wow yeah. I once spent my last $300 to bail her trainhopping band out of jail. Met her in a squat when she was 16, she is not at least monetarily privileged. She has worked hard her entire life. ♥️

      @@bernsky Boricua from the Bronx but talks white and looks white so she's confused as white but she's as Latina as Freida... and the Bronx is usually described as the poorest city in USA mainland, well corrected for cost of living since you can have everything you could ever want in New York but you just cant afford it and you're stacked like sardines high above mean streets. Puerto Ricans are the poorest US Citizens due to colonial status and receive less aid and compensation for their struggles than even your blackest and whitest Mississippians or Michiganders in Detroit. And she ran away with nothing to run away to potentially nothing but an ill fated death or drunken folly away from life in prison. Idk that may not be the most odds but that's alot of them.

      I think she and her band are just starting out. a may be wrong; I've never heard of them before. but often young artists imitate the style of artists they look up to and get good at that first before taking that sound in their own direction. don't know you well enough to say for sure, but being a bit more positive might help.
