How do you pronounce Lisa Loeb's last name?

[Brian Hoskins]

I've always been a bit of a fan of Lisa Loeb. Not to the point where I've gone mad about her or anything, but I've got 8 of her albums so I do like her.

In all the time I've been listening to her music, I've always wondered how her last name is pronounced.

Anyone wanna give it a go?

I'm surprised she has 8 albums. The only radio hit she had over here in the US as far as I can remember was "Stay".

Thanks for that. Yeah, Stay (I missed you) was her biggest chart hit, and is the track most people associate her with. I really liked that track, hence how I became interested in her. I've got 8 albums but one of those is a greatest hits which doesn't really count I suppose. So 7 albums really. She's stayed in the background pretty much, but I like her!

Yes, I've heard it on the radio, had no idea who it was though.

If you win who wants to be a millionaire based upon your new-found music knowledge, I'm sure you won't hesitate to share the fortune with me.

Most likely though, this information will join an unrelenting list of "useless information" in your brain. In that case, sorry about that!
