Free Music Notes for Inside Out
Free Music Review: Not at all what I expected!
Hit: 5 Stars
When I first heard Emmy Rossum was making an album, I really expected the final product to be the earnest work of a baby Brightman: a few show tunes, a couple of classical pieces done in Celtic Women style, the ubiquitous "O Mio Babbino Caro," etc. I was unimpressed by her performance in Phantom-- her voice was too reedy and immature for her to be believable as an operatic diva.
However, when I saw her album on iTunes, I took the time to preview it, and I was so very pleasantly surprised.
On "Inside Out" Rossum doesn't fall victim to the "I have some high notes, so I must use them" syndrome or bombastic pretentiousness that would have slotted her firmly in the Popera genre. Instead of following in the footsteps of Brightman and Groban, she's crafted a very soothing mix of Imogene Heap's layering effects and Kate Bush's wailing vocals, and it all comes out sounding quite a bit how I'd imagine an Annie Lennox album to sound, if Annie Lennox took several Valium and hit the record button. The lyrics, though at times a bit too melodramatic and repetitive, are simple and honest, and all of the songs touch on universal themes that any listener can sympathize with.
The best part of this album, though, are Rossum's vocals, which are smooth and mature, light years beyond her strained chirping in Phantom. She has crafted her voice into a dark, breathy, legitimate Adult Contemporary sound. This album is above and beyond the bubble gum tracks other singers her age are producing, and it is definitely worth listening to.
Inside Out Poster
Emmy Rossum, the actress best known for her acting roles in `Phantom Of The Opera,' `Mystic River,' and `The Day After Tomorrow,' has her diversity validated with her release of debut album, Inside Out, Despite her being known primary as an actress, music has always played a major role in Emmy Rossum's life.When she was seven years old, she was singing with the Metropolitan Opera, and by the time she was a teenager, she had auditioned, and won, the part of Christine in the film version of `Phantom of the Opera,' for which she received a Golden Globe nomination. Rossum recorded her new music with producer Stuart Brawley, with whom she co-wrote all of the songs, and it represents a showcase for her remarkable vocal range. "I feel a real emotional connection to these songs," she says. "It's a real expression of my innermost thoughts and feelings, hence the title Inside Out." "It's about finding a respite from all the craziness," says the performer about the song. "I wanted to create a kind of music that would allow me to use my voice as an instrument. I tried to discover the boundary of the human voice.
