Vanessa is #6 on Slant Magazine's Top Albums of 2004!
Slant Magazine Link (http://www.slantmagazine.com/music/features/2004yearinmusic.asp) from Vanessa Carlton.com (http://www.vanessacarlton.com/index2.htm) (excpet I had to make it of instead of their "on" :wink: )

It should have been hard for Vanessa Carlton to trump her first single "A Thousand Miles," but "White Houses," the lead single from the singer's sophomore effort Harmonium, is the kind of song that truly cements a career. Amidst a driving beat, piano recital keys, and lush strings, the song tells the story of five girls living together in what is presumably a dance school dormitory or summer camp. The girls play spin the bottle, make out with boys, tell secrets, betray each other, and then reluctantly move on with their lives. The song is poignant, bloody, fleeting, and beautiful, much like adolescence, while the simple but elegant video allows Carlton to showcase her years of professional dance training.

It's a good thing that magazines appreciate White Houses and know its beauty. Blender, Slant Magazine, whats next?

Is there a way to buy Magazines from the internet... I always wanted Magazines that talks about Vanessa, Amy Lee, Nelly Furtado, Natalie Imbruglia or Dido... Where can I buy magazines by net...?
Oh, it's nice to know it all

I'm late replying but, I think It's really interesting on what it said about White Houses. Glad lots of people are enjoying this single as much as A Thousand Miles
