Boys Don't Cry by Rumer LP Sweepstakes
According to the press:
“We seem to be, in England, capable of bringing these singers out like Adele, Duffy, and Amy Winehouse and Now Rumer. People with extraordinary voices. They don’t come along that often and then you get one that comes along like Rumer’s. Just extraordinary, a beautiful voice. She’s going to be a huge star.” – Sir Elton John"It is so nice to have a singer just sing a song without the frills and the diva tricks. Rumer really delivers the goods." – Burt Bacharach
"Rumer is wonderful, a real gutsy singer." – Carly Simon
"Rumer (born Sarah Joyce) has one of those timeless, jazz-soul voices--like Norah Jones, Amy Winehouse, and Adele--that makes you stop and pay attention." – Vanity Fair
“We have a feeling she is about to break out into a league of her own very soon.” – Nylon
“A singer sure to become a stateside star later this year.” – New York Daily News
“The most exciting new talent of the moment.” – The Observer
“Stunning… the world really does need her songs.” – The Telegraph
“The hype is justified – this new singer is the real deal.” – The Sunday Times
“She’s more than a new discovery…the best act we’ve heard in ages.” – The Guardian
“Clearly well on her way to stardom… Rumer is stunning.” – The Independent
The best new voice of the year – MOJO Magazine

I'd like to win one. I'm not familiar with her music, but she looks cute.
...let's go!
I am open to some new vinyl.
Rumer is terrific. She has a wonderful voice. One of my new favorite singers.
Rumer has it...
Always game to listen to something new
Thank you!
New music, great!
Thanks!

Pick me
Looks like an Astrud Gilberto LP cover, and that's not a bad thing...
Good luck to me ;)
Would love to hear this....
I'll cry if i dont win!!!!
Free music is always a great deal.
Thanks - I love Burt B.'s quote.
Thank You
Let's hear it Sarah!

JD
Count me in guys, thanks!
I want it.
Count me in.
Thanks.
Ok
I always enjoy listening to a great singer and hope I am a winner. I shy away from Karaoke clubs as I don't want to listen to people who can't sing!
I have this on CD but need the vinyl to really hear her properly. She sounds a lot like a fusion of Karen Carpenter and Dusty Springfield - wonderful!!!!
New Voices
I really like this singer, but only have CDs of her two albums. Vinyl would be nice.
Love it.
Hot Tunes and a Voice!
Mr Pajamas
Thanks Again!
I might win!
I'm in!
Michael, on a different topic, has anyone complained that they are unable to enter text in the Comment box? I have only been able to post this message through a tricky workaround whereby
1) I pretype this message and copy the text
2) I enter the topic and click Preview
3) I have about 1 second window in which the Comment box is open, and then it turns grey and I cannot write in the box
4) In that 1 second window I have to try to paste the copied text and click Save
I’m using Windows Explorer 10, so my browser is current. I love this site, but this bug definitely precludes my participation. Thoughts from your webmaster?
This lp sounds like a winner hope I am too thanks

Of Rumer's album.

...that I was going to win this LP. Normally I don't pay attention to rumors, but I kinda like this one.
Yes, please!
I'd love one.
Not familiar with her music, so I'd love to give the LP a whirl.
Always so nice to hear a new beautiful and soulful voice!
I have been aware of Rumer for several months now. Went crazy for her right off the bat. ... her other release is just as great tho a hint more mellow but it has some cool old covers. I would LOVE to have the Lp of this oooh yeah !
Based on your review, I think I would really enjoy this.
Could be interesting. I'll give it a few listens if you send me one.
I'm always in the mood for new vinyl!
I want one!

Hey!
Well, I can't say no to that. Would love to have a copy , hope I'll win this one.
That I might win some Rumer vinyl, but not by Fleetwood Mac!

What a voice! I'll take one.
And I want her record.

No reason for you chaps to enter, as I have already won.
Maybe this time I will win.
Here's my entry. Probably won't win even with the better odds, but what the heck. Dice roll please.
I'd like to win her record.. if she's getting all those rave reviews, I'm in.. and Thanks for the opportunity.. (not meaning to sound sexist in any way, but she's a living doll!.. love those bangs
Yes Please!
Thanks--
I'm in.
Yes Please!
Would love to hear it!
I wonder if Mikey still gets high and rocks out upon occasion...
(I wouldn't insinuate you would toke up in your listening room... 'OCD on the lp' I'm sure...)
I went to you tube for a taste, and she's wonderful...
Thanks
Would love to hear it, I've heard good things about her, but have yet to hear her music.
I wanna hear it
I have a copy, but would be happy to pass along
I'm in, Mikey!
Impetus for some hardware resurrection; could be a good thing. #ducking
This got me to sign up. Haven't heard the young lady but she sounds right up my alley.
I'll cry if I don't win.
Sure, put my name in the hat.
My daughter was just telling me I don't listen to enough music by women.
Rumer has it...Seriously though, I've heard a few of her impressive performances. It's not just that rumor has it, it's Rumer who has it going on!
I'll win eventually.
Hope this is a winner!
