Are you serious? Marianne is one of the great female artists of our time...
Marianne delves into all different styles. Her post "Broken English" stuff is pretty poor (from 1980 - 1999) But the last 3 albums Marianne has released rivals anything she has released, ever:
1999's "Vagabond Ways" was her return to form. The title track is one of my favourite Marianne songs ever. And there is a song called "Reincarnation of A Flower Child" which was written by Roger Waters of Pink Floyd is just the ****ing best. I swear.
2002's "Kissin' Time" is produced by Beck, Blur, Pulp, Billy Corgan, and Dave Stewart - its a different style for Marianne - not really rock - but is arguably the greatest record she ever released.
2005's "Before the Poison" is the last album she released, and this is a return to a more rock style. It is produced by Nick Cave and PJ Harvey, and if you have heard anything by those artists, Marianne's stuff on this album is pretty similar. "Mystery of Love" is my favourite Marianne track ever.
I can send you a few tracks to check out if you wish
