Free Music Notes for Blood Red Cherry
Free Music Review: Terribly Overlooked
Hit: 5 Stars
Jann's 2000 album BLOOD RED CHERRY is significantly more upbeat and accessible than 1997's introspective and somewhat dark album HAPPY?. Not to say its a bad thing but it's good to see all sides of the artist, and Jann has many dimensions. There are a few changes in her music, this one relies more on textured beats and musical arrangements in that type of order, and it creates a really pleasant sound that works well with her voice. The album is still as personal as ever though, and unfortunately this album is often overlooked in the shadow of LIVING UNDER JUNE, this one wasn't very well received by the public, which is a shame. If anything, its just as good as LIVING UNDER JUNE. My favorite track is the emotional song "Another Human Being" which has some really thought provoking lyrics, which make you think about yourself as a person in relation to everyone else in the world. "Janeen" is a fun song about a woman that Jann can't stand, really tongue in cheek song. "I Only Wanted Sex" is as brutally honest as they come, a quirky song where Jann conveys that she was only in the relationship for selfish needs of sex, not for love. "Waiting In Canada" is a nice album opener, about the beauty of Canada and what lies within its boundaries. "Sleepless" is a very catchy and poignant song about the world around us, and how we need each other in our lives. The songs have this universal appeal, and its just quality start to finish. Other highlights include "Never Give Up On Me", "Sorry For Myself", "Into The Sun", "Piece of It All", and many more. Overall it might not be Jann's most popular album, but artistically I think it is her best.
Blood Red Cherry Poster
Fourth album for Canadian, adult alternative artist, her follow up to the 1998 release, 'Happy?'. 2000 release. Standard jewel case.Three years after her last album, Happy?, the double-platinum-selling Jann Arden returns with her most rhythmic record, and also her most emotionally naked. In collaborating with her longtime guitar player Russell Broom, Arden sets her dreamy excursions of love and lust to a stronger pulse, working with drum loops to drive her fiercely erotic and romantic fantasies. It's these songs that carry the album, not the occasional oddity like "Janeen," a warning about a sociopathic lover, or "Another Human Being," a treatise on the horrors of African famine and disease, or even "I Only Wanted Sex," which inadvertently offers the point of view of the guy from Arden's biggest hit, "Insensitive." What's particularly involving about the writing is Arden's us-against-the-world vignettes of deep intimacy ("Sleepless") and her frequent expression of primal needs in alternately adult and infantile fashion ("Cherry Popsicle"). If, as in the stunningly beautiful "In Your Keeping," it's hard to know if she's addressing a parent, a lover, or God, in the end it doesn't matter: This is provocative stuff, fit with wings to take you almost anywhere you want to go. Isn't that what the best music always does? --Alanna Nash
