DAY 25

Song: "Miss Invisible"
Artist: Marie Digby
Album: Unfold (2008)

Even though she was originally known for posting an acoustic version of Rihanna's "Umbrella" on YouTube (video below), my favorite song from singer/songwriter Marie Digby is "Miss Invisible" from her debut album.

Fun fact about this song: it actually helped get her career started, as she wrote it for a vocal competition (that she went on to win) which had a grand prize that included the services of a music producer and money to help pay for recording time and performances. Since her debut album she's released several others and has never really made much of a splash on any charts or anything, but I've always found something soothing (and a little sad) about her voice, especially on this song.

I actually discovered this song during one of my past jobs where my company shared office space with a music attorney. I saw a poster of her album cover on the wall and told him I really liked her cover of "Umbrella," which was the only song I had heard at the time. He told me to check out her album, and I wasn't disappointed, especially by this song!
