The nicotine-stained voice on her 1993 debut, <i>Exile in Guyville</i>, is as insensitive and self-centered as that of any frat boy, while self-explanatory songs such as "F*ck and Run" and the unladylike lust of "Flower" were hardly the mixed signals or catty whispering the media had come to expect from its charming young ladies. <i>Whitechocolatespaceegg</i> (1998) found Phair writing the best songs of her career. More contemplative and less vitriolic than its predecessors, that album is an excellent display of Lo-Fi brilliance, boasting economical guitar playing, weathered yet charming singing and lyrics, and intriguing arrangements. Helped along by the hit single "Why Can't I?," Phair's 2003 re-invention as a slick rock/pop idol for the teenage set (and their parents) simultaneously confused the press and intrigued the public. For <i>Somebody's Miracle</i> (2005), Liz Phair collaborated with Sheryl Crow producer John Shanks. - Kelly BaumanAdult Alternativeen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:10:44 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.38140&rws=%2Fliz-phair%2Fmusic-videos.rss Though a consummate songwriter, Liz Phair is best known for her pre-Lilith feminist leanings.
