Jill Sobule: Singer, Actress, Crossword Addict
NPR Weekend Edition - Sunday, January 9, 2005 · Since her 1995 breakthrough hit "I Kissed a Girl," singer-songwriter Jill Sobule has been charming fans with her smart and witty pop music. She donned acting shoes to play a street musician in Eric Schaffer's film Mind the Gap. And with the release of her latest CD, the critically acclaimed Underdog Victorious, Sobule fulfilled yet another desire: she became a clue in a crossword puzzle.
A self-proclaimed crossword addict, Sobule enlisted the help of Weekend Edition puzzle master Will Shortz to create a full-fledged puzzle on the inside cover of her CD.
On Jill:
Now you may ask yourself, why would Mrs. JQP sent him something about Jill Soblue. There in dear reader lays the story. A few years ago, Jill was on tour with a personal friend and role model of mine, the late Mr. Warren Zevon. It was during that time that I made her acquaintance. One thing I (we) found is that dear sweet Jill can and does do more than kiss girls. In a nut shell we made out with her… oh, that magic moment so long ago, those wild times of youth. Sweet sweet Jill…
A fan; I remain,
JQP USCG (Ret.)
