Reuters - It has been nearly 2-1/2 years since
Vanessa Carlton launched one of the most enduring songs of the
millennium with the enchanting "A Thousand Miles." A lot has
changed since then, with the proliferation of today's
ubiquitous girl grunge, a la Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson and
even Hilary Duff. So "White Houses" is all the more welcome of
a return because, thankfully, it bears the do-it-my-way
signature of a singer/ songwriter who relies on piano; a
meandering, storytelling lyrical style; and deceptively sweet
vocals that underlie an intellectual bent. Carlton wrote the
song with her main squeeze, Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins,
who also handled production duties. The result is a highly
original composition that makes you really want to listen and
understand -- and then sing along. From the upcoming
"Harmonium," due Oct. 19.
