Free Music Review: Emotional and heart-felt album
Hit: 5 Stars
Idina Menzel is one of the most talented artists in the industry these days and her new album 'I Stand' is an amazing showcase of her experience and skills.
I Stand - 4/5 - Idina's voice really shines in this song and shows how much range and control she has. However, I'm not into the whole 'anthem' vibe of the song (one of 2 songs on the album that teeters dangerously towards the cheesy side).
Better To Have Loved - 5/5 - One of the best songs on the album. The emotions in Idina are clearly on display in this song and the chorus is amazing (except I'm not a fan of the beginning where it sounds like creepy background singers have overtaken the song, but that's only 5 seconds).
Brave - 5/5 - At this point, I've listened to the song so many times that I'm almost sick of it. However, I still remember how beautiful I thought the song was when I first heard it, which of course led to me listening to it constantly. Idina's voice is truly stunning at the beginning of the song. Some people think the lyrics are cheesy, but I think they carry a lot of truth and emotion that many people can relate to.
Gorgeous - 4/5- The most upbeat and 'pop' song on the album. It's got a very catchy beat but I'm not such a big fan of the lyrics (again, teetering towards cheesy).
Where Do I Begin - 3.5/5 - Probably the weakest song on the album, which is actually saying a lot, considering its still a very good song. I always cringe at the beginning, but the chorus carries the most meaning and emotion. A nice song on its own, but as others have said, it's overshadowed by other much more powerful songs.
Don't Let Me Down - 4/5 - I love the beginning where only the piano is playing, but the massive shift in mood to the chorus really brings the song off-track. Both parts are great, but they would have worked better separately.
I Feel Everything - 4/5 - The emotion in this song is incredible. I love the piano in the song, very cleverly used. I also love how Idina sounds like a naive little girl when she says 'Like a prima ballerina, I will tip toe, tip toe around you constantly' and then suddenly changes to this strong, amazing voice at the chorus.
Forever - 4.5/5 - This song really grew on me after awhile. It kind of has a dark tone to it, which I'm a big fan of (the songs get darker as you progress more into the album). One little things that irks me: Idina's pronunciation is kind of weird in this song, almost as if she were singing in a drunk state(I swear I thought she was saying `Forever came Edmund' until the 10th time I played it).
My Own Worst Enemy - 5/5 - A really dark and moody song, just the way I like it. I love the chorus, as it really gets the emotions stirring inside of you. The ending is amazing. Idina's voice always sounds amazing, but when she's harmonizing, it's especially incredible.
Perfume and Promises - 5/5 - By far, the best song on the album. The melody is incredible. It has a beautiful, serene quality to it that swoops and then soars. Idina's voice is simply stunning. Like the melody, her voice is very serene and dream-like. Even though Idina didn't write the song, the lyrics are still very powerful. If you listen to only one song on this album, it should definitely be this one!

Amazon.comAlready a star on Broadway, the charismatic Idina Menzel ("Rent," "Wicked") is ready to star on album. To make that happen, she has enlisted the man responsible for launching, or continuing the phenomenal careers of other recent major female artists. Glen Ballard, best known for Alanis Morissette?s 16-times-platinum Jagged Little Pill and who has worked with Shakira, Christina Aguilera, Annie Lennox and Celine Dion, produced and co-wrote all but one of the songs on I Stand with Menzel.
