The 5 O’Clock Shadow – Nov. 1st

The​ ​original​ ​artist​ ​is​ ​a​ ​gifted​ ​songwriter​ ​with​ ​a​ ​strong,​ ​distinctive​ ​(perhaps gravelly?)​ ​voice.​ ​She​ ​is​ ​known​ ​for​ ​her​ ​deeply​ ​personal​ ​lyrics.

The​ ​cover​ ​artist​ ​is​ ​an​ ​R&B​ ​songstress​ ​who​ ​began​ ​recording​ ​at​ ​age​ ​16, achieving​ ​intermittent​ ​successes​ ​but​ ​it​ ​wasn’t​ ​until​ ​she​ ​“raised​ ​some​ ​hell”​ ​in 2005​ ​that​ ​she​ ​reached​ ​a​ ​wider​ ​audience.

The​ ​song​ ​is​ ​not​ ​particularly​ ​happy​ ​but​ ​the​ ​title​ ​is.
