IN PRAISE OF SHARLEEN SPITERI

As frontwoman of the band Texas, Sharleen Spiteri has given me some of my favorite musical memories of the last 20 years. How do I love thee, Sharleen? Let me count the ways -- or rather, the reasons: 1) "I Don't Want A Lover," 2) "Fade Away," 3) White On Blonde, 4) The Hush, 5) "Carnival Girl," 6) Red Book, 7) "Stop I Don't Love You Anymore." But most of all, there's the video below, in which Sharleen describes her close encounter with Paris Hilton.
