Still, Imbruglia will probably never be mistaken for a singer-songwriter. Although she's credited with co-writing most of Left's songs, the album was born with a battery of producers in attendance, including Nigel Godrich of Radiohead, and former Cure bassist Phil Thornalley. Nor will Imbruglia score points for originality. Most of the album's songs sound as if they had been ripped right out of Morissette's songbook. A few do hit the pop bull's-eye. Intuition and Torn start off sweetly and gather into cloudbursts of righteous rage, touching on jealousy, infatuation...
Like Rebekah, Billie Myers has wide-ranging musical tastes. "I listen to many things," says Myers. "I love Deana Carter. Alana Davis. Radiohead." Her album is filled with moderately paced, big-hearted rock. Myers has a strong, sure sense of melody, and most of her songs make a strong impression even after just the first hearing.

Several newcomers, most notably Williams (who did Mary J. Blige's lush clip Everything), Paul Hunter (Erykah Badu, Sean "Puffy" Combs), Jonathan Glazer (Radiohead, Jamiroquai) and Floria Sigismondi (Marilyn Manson, Tricky), have risen to the challenge. As a result, the directors themselves are becoming MTV stars. Williams and Hunter have almost become brand names; each has a colorful, highly recognizable style, and hip-hop stars--and even some alternative bands--are rushing to work with them. All four of these directors are up for multiple awards at next week's MTV Music Video Awards, and all four are starting...
