Free Music Notes for Beautiful Collision
Free Music Review: One of the best albums ever
Hit: 5 Stars
I first heard Bic Runga when I got the live album with Tim Finn and Dave Dobbyn. That inspired me to pick up Drive and this album, Beautiful Collision, and am I glad I did. I enjoyed both albums although I like the live versions of songs from "Drive" better as that album sounds a bit over-produced to me.
Happily, Beautiful Collision is a different story. Lush, gentle, yet catchy and sometimes surprising (the best use of a banjo and harmonica I've heard in a long while in a couple of songs, though this is not a country-music album), the production is perfect. Bic Runga has one of the most appealing voices I've ever heard - delicate and pure without being cutesy or syrupy, with a wide range. Her vocal technique is quietly self-assured, without resorting to the trickery and posturing of too many female singers out there these days. She reminds me a bit of Natalie Imbruglia as far as bell-like qualities go, but I think she's better. Her lyrics, mostly about love, are fresh and thoughtful - no cliches here. I just never get tired of listening to it, no matter how often I play it.
Buy this album. You'll be glad you did. Bic Runga could teach many of the female singers out there a thing or two.
