Free Music Notes for White Lilies Island
Free Music Review: Not what I expected...but that's not a bad thing
Hit: 5 Stars
I downloaded these tracks long before I bought the CD. Why did I actually buy it? When music hits me as strongly as these songs did, I want to show my support for the art. I was a huge fan of Left of the Middle and although White Lilies Island goes in a different direction, it's not a bad one. Her music is more mellow then that of most other female rockers but she still manages to put enough energy into certain tracks to keep your attention through the entire album.
1. That Day: Not a song I really expected from her. The music itself seems to be kind of chaotic at first and it takes some getting used to. Although I've learned to appriciate it more, I have to be in a certain mood to actually enjoy this song. The lyrics are moving though, when you can actually understand them. 7.5
2. Beauty on the Fire: Now this is a song I got into. It has lyrics you would have expected to see on LotM but the music is much easier to listen to. You can easily picture her in your mind, singing this in the studio with a half smile on her face. It's beautiful, plain and simple. 10/10.
3. Satellite: This was the first song I heard from the album and the one I probably enjoy the least. Personally I prefer a more secretive and insightful sounding Natalie. If your favorite songs from LotM were Torn, Intuition, and Wishing I Was There, then you'll probably enjoy it. It's a feel-good playful song and works well for what it is. 7/10
4. Do You Love: This one is just haunting. The way she drags out some of the words really sucks you in although I can see how it could get irritating after a time. The chorus is what eventually got to me about this one but then again, I love songs that make me think by asking more questions then what they actually end up answering. 8.5/10
5. Wrong Impression: Well...I guess she had to sing something that could be embraced by the public. I like it more than Satellite but not nearly as much as the other jewels on this album. 7.5/10
6. Goodbye: It's melencholy but with a title like Goodbye, can you really expect a happy upbeat tune? I do like the vocals although the ultra-slow tempo makes this song hard to sit through if you're not in a quiet mood. 8/10
7. Everything Goes: You can hear her smiling through this one, you can tell that out of all the songs on the album, this one probably had some significance to her life. The chorus adds a new layer to the song that is a nice change from the verses. 9/10.
8. Hurricane: Repetative, almost to a fault. Note the almost though, Natalie's vocals are the only thing that keep the phrases from getting boring. 9/10
9. Sunlight: I'll agree with everyone else on here who said she should have released this one. The song is another one of my favorites that really could only be pulled off by Natalie. It's a faster piece (not to the extreme of That Day but it really is faster than most of this album). 9.5/10
10. Talk In Tongues: This one is all about the lyrics. If you're not into songs that seem to more emphasise on what's being said, rather than how it's being said then you'll skip over. I just happen to love this one because I think it really brings out her vocal talents. 9/10.
11. Butterflies: This is my favorite song off her album...and my favorite song of hers overall. The contradictions in this song set it apart from most everything else on my playlist. I've got well over 2000 songs on my master playlist and on the list of top played, this song is at number 3. The descriptions are vivid but the language use is unsurpassed. 10/10 and if I could rate it higher, I would.
12. Come September: It's the perfect wrap up, sweet and thoughtful and a perfect reflection of everything you love about Natalie. 9.5/10
If you're looking for something as angry as LotM or as poppy as Wrong Impression may indicate, you're in for a shocker. This album is one that actually needs to be listened to, not played in the background while you're concentrating on something else. If you don't actually sit down and listen to it, you'll miss everything it has to offer.
