Broken Doll & Odds & Ends

Broken Doll & Odds & Ends is the second studio album by singer-songwriter Anna Nalick, released on June 5, 2011.[4] The original version of "Shine" was released three years earlier on her EP Shine, although it has been re-worked for this album.[5] It was intended to be the lead for her initially planned second album, but the plans fell through after a dispute with her label.[6] After Nalick separated from her label, she got married and took a two year break from the music industry. In 2010, Nalick announced her return to the music business on her Facebook page. She formed her own independent label, Nyctograph, and released Broken Doll & Odds & Ends.[7] The title track of the album, "Broken Doll", was developed after she found her old Barbie dolls discarded and broken. The song develops this as a theme of once feeling special, but then being left behind. The song was written early in the process, when Nalick was still under contract with Sony Music. One of the themes the album explores is the discomfort Nalick felt at being asked to be somebody different than herself.[8] Initially, the album was intended to be an acoustic album, but Nalick's friends who performed on the album had talent with many instruments, so that she gave them the opportunity to explore a variety of sounds to put on the album, so that various instruments like the sitar, the mandocello, and the glockenspiel ended up on the album.[9]

gollark: I have it *open*, it's quite long.
gollark: I don't think, in many cases, you could just swap out a file for a TCP stream or datagram not-stream and expect all the code dealing with it in an application to work fine.
gollark: Applications have to handle them differently, and the kernel does too.
gollark: There's a significant difference between "send datagram" and "push to a stream" and, i don't know, "wait for an inbound TCP connection".
gollark: Still, though, I don't think having all this stuff as read/writeable "files" when the semantics are different is good.
