The gene pool could use a little Chlorine.

Why won't my computer read my David Gray CD? I really want to hear it right now, but my media player won't read it. Counting Crows, burned on the same type of disc, works just fine; Jason Mraz is great. But not David Gray. What the hell is that about? Ahhh, that David Gray. I was so upset when I found out he was married. A man's voice (not to mention his lyrical abilities) is one of the greatest pleasures in the world. Adam Duritz on 'August and Everything After', man oh man, there's so much raw emotion there, all you have to do is lie on the floor with your eyes closed and the fan running full blast and just...listen. David Gray's voice, though, is all dark mystery, quietly contained depression and sensuality all at once. It's perfect. A perfect Friday night: just me and Guiness and 'White Ladder'.
