Song of the Day: 'I Need Love' by Sam Phillips

Slowly learning more about the "Baby, I Can't Please You" singer. 

Music Box: Sam Phillips

Hard-core fans will cringe when I admit this, but I only discovered Sam Phillips a few months ago when this song called "Baby, I Can't Please You" was playing at my local drugstore every time I went in to buy something. I was instantly mesmerized -- it was as if John Lennon and Paul McCartney had mixed their sperm together and inseminated Rickie Lee Jones and out came this brilliantly talented singer/songwriter. It turned out the song was 14 years old (from 1994's unfortunately titled "Martinis & Bikinis"), so I've certainly got a lot of catching up to do (it seems Sam also used to record as Leslie Phillips for a Christian label before turning more mainstream). But trust me, one listen (video above) and you'll be as hooked as I was. (Her brand new album is "Don't Do Anything" and can be purchased here.)
