Free Music Notes for Girls and Boys
Free Music Review: Pleasant Surprise!
Hit: 4 Stars
I took a gamble and bought this album knowing just one song, a gamble which hasn't typically paid off for me. Lo and behold, a pleasant surprise. The album has a breezy sound and provides a nice little pleasant escape from the hectic road trip into work. I definitely plan to continue following this artist's work. Take a chance. It's well worth it.Free Music Review: Next Big Thing!
Hit: 5 Stars
I've seen Ingrid live and she is just as incredible as this CD in person. Her music is organic and is really something to believe in. She is the next big thing, I can't wait to hear her new music to come!Free Music Review: Ingrid Michaelson, "Girls and Boys"
Hit: 4 Stars
Ingrid Michaelson's "Girls and Boys" is just what the doctor ordered for the intelligent-intimate-and-colorful-music deprived.
The Indie-pop newcomer's sophomore album has a revitalizing effect.
Surely not by accident, Michaelson's complex style is masked as simple and soft by the songstress' delicate vocals, alternative guitar strumming, pretty piano playing and trouble-free beats.
Delving into the album's beauty and falling in love with Michaelson's voice is easy from first listen. The best part of this album is Michaelson's ability to say so much with so few words.
Just over two minutes in length, "The Way I Am" is perhaps the best song on this 12-track jewel. Its soothing quality will leave you purring:
"I'd buy you Rogaine if you start losing all your hair/Sew on patches to all you tear/Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise/And you take me the way I am."
"Masochist" is another great among greats. Undoubtedly personal, the song tells of letting yourself fall in love with a person even though it is clear the relationship is not destined to succeed:
"She says you're a masochist for falling for me/So roll up your sleeves/And I think that I like her/Cuz she tells me things I don't want to hear/Medicinal tongue in my ear/... When will it start? My broken part?"
Putting down your guard and giving in to your softer side is the story behind "Overboard":
"I could write my name by the age of three/And I don't need anyone cut my meat for me/I'm a big girl now/See my big girl shoes/It'll take more than just a breeze to make me/Fall over, fall over, fall overboard."
"Girls and Boys" is sure to stay on repeat for days on end.
Free Music Review: Love the Music - if only I could hear it
Hit: 1 Stars
The CD I received is damaged. It skips every two seconds and you can't hear a full voice flow. Very disappointed!Free Music Review: It's good to isten to it......
Hit: 4 Stars
If you've heard her on Old Navy ads, chances are you might be seeing this geeky girl who takes control of her voice and never goes way off on it. The tracks are pretty cool, and the music is somewhat a bit tired, but nonethless, it makes good for a great CD!
