Juiced

Since I'm on Friday Magic Madness mode, I'm recalling the singers that I used to hear a lot during my grade school and high school days, and no longer hear today. One of them is Juice Newton, who has this nice, hoarse, country-ish voice. If you just listen to her sing, you'd imagine her as someone like Dolly Parton. But if you see her, she's a bit more like Carly Simon meets Janis Joplin.

And one of her most famous - and campy - songs, "Angel of the Morning." The title alone reeks of cheese.
