Cannot Buy My Soul The Songs of Kev Carmody

After converting his ’59 Lincoln continental into an electric car, Neil Young was so excited to share the green love, he created an album inspired by it, Fork in the Road.

But not everyone was excited to hear “Cough Up The Buck” and “Fuel Line,” as one commenter on a website examining the lyrics to one of his songs said, “No one wants him to retire, but we really need to quit pretending that the lyrics don’t suck.”

Vegan singer and songwriter Missy Higgins recognizes how spreading the seemingly enthusiastic eco friendly love isn’t for every musical artist, so she stays away from it.

“I’ve tried, but I can’t figure out a way to do it without sounding cliché. Some people protest through their music, and some have to do it through other means. Midnight Oil does it pretty well [through their music]. They’re big environmentalists.”

Missy Higgins Fronts New PETA Anti-Fur Ad With Best Friend Izzy

We admit we’re in love with Missy Higgins. But what’s not to love about her?

A vegan with a beautiful voice and equally talented song writing skills, she’s no stranger to animal issues either. Remember when she got cuddly with the piggy?

Now she’s cozying up with Izzy the dog, and both want to convey a serious message about animals and the fur industry.

“If you wouldn’t wear your dog, please don’t wear any fur,” reads the ad.

“The only difference between your “best friend” and animals killed for their fur is how we treat them. All animals suffer and feel pain. Please don’t wear any fur or fur trim.”

Missy Higgins is an Australian born singer and songwriter who’s been inching her way into America’s CD players with her album The Sound of White and more recently, On A Clear Night.

She is a vegan, who agreed to cuddle with a pig because she loves animals so much. The last time we remember a singer holding a pig for the camera it was Tori Amos nursing one and…well, never mind.

Anyway, living in Los Angeles is great for Missy because she has the world of vegan food eateries in her backyard, include Real Food Daily. We checked out the menu: Better With Cheddar Nachos-melted cashew cheddar cheese with tofu sour cream, Tempeh Reuben, and Salisbury Seitan to name a few items.

It’s safe to say that this woman’s got both a great voice and great taste.
