I've always found it hard to imagine what Naomi solaces music would sound like but I just got reminded that Ilse de Lange and the common linnets exist. From now on that's what her music sounds like

My ESC top 250 (#150-141), featuring a multi-functional dress, a meditation on the Western view on the East, and someone who endorses himself as a "great singer"

The way you confuse me, I treasure the taste

The way that you love with that smile on your face

.......

There's a piece of my heart that you own, and it may be broken...

Broken but home

Broken but home...
