Free Music Review: "Keep it comin', baby, can you dig it?"
Hit: 5 Stars
From the airy, ethereal opening of the "Intro", to the frenetically chirping keyboards of the title track, to the melancholy fade out of "My Best Friend", this is a thoroughly enjoyable record. (This record will forever be linked in my mind to the summer of 2006, when I discovered, and continued to play, the heck out of it.) Her sampling of Madonna's "Everybody" on "The Greatest Hit" is genius, and Annie's take genuinely adds something special to the original as she makes it her own. Other favorites on this record include "No Easy Love", and "Heartbeat", the perfect song to listen to right before you leave the house on a Friday night to meet up with your friends to go dancing. I can't wait for the next album (which I read somewhere should be coming out by the end of 2007... I'm sure will be worth the wait).
Anniemal Poster
Annie's Norwegian blend of spiky pop and electro has quickly made her one of the most hotly tipped new artists across the globe. Already embraced as a musical force to be reckoned with, she is being championed be the likes of Mylo, DFA, LCD Soundsystem, Rob Da Bank and Scissor Sisters.Norwegian singer/songwriter Annie (Anne Lilia Berge Strand) makes her full-length debut with what must surely be the year's sunniest album. Not since the days of The Tom Tom Club, Bananarama, and "Lucky Star"-era Madonna, has dance-pop been this fun, this bouncy, this unabashedly optimistic (1999 single "Greatest Hit" even samples the latter's "Everybody"). So don't say you haven't been warned: Anniemal is a pretension-free zone. With its "Oh no, oh no / You've got it all wrong / You think you're chocolate / But you're chewing gum" refrain, 2004's insanely addictive single "Chewing Gum" is the jewel in this sparkling crown. The R2D2-like bloops and bleeps and Annie's sweet "ah-ah-ahs" and "la-la-las" just make it shine all the brighter. Hippie-disco extravaganza "Come Together," which tops the seven-minute mark, is another standout, while the sentimental "My Best Friend" is, arguably, the only clunker on one of 2005's most notable releases. --Kathleen C.
