Free Music Review: the best Natalie album
Hit: 5 Stars
I think "Ophelia" is the best Natalie Merchant album; I love every song on it, in particular "Ophelia", "Life is sweet", "Kind & generous", "Break your heart", "King of may", "Thick as thieves", and every song is a jewel by itself; I strongly love this album; I think Natalie never surpassed it with her other albums; I saw her in concert in Milan, years ago, and she is an excellent performer.
Ophelia Poster
Miss Natalie needs to lighten up. Ophelia's a pretty heavy record, in terms of both the thick, string-heavy production and in terms of her protracted, pretentious songs. Merchant has a beautiful voice but she bogs it down with weighty themes that walk around in flashy clothes without going anywhere. She's even got, gulp, Tibetan lyric translations on "Effigy." It's telling that the best track here is the simplest--a lovely reading of an 1887 parlour hymn, "When They Ring The Golden Bells." Its genteel acoustic backdrop perfectly sets off Merchant's voice--and its the only time she sings with a passion that doesn't feel pretended. Guests include Daniel Lanois and The Innocence Mission. --Michael RubyAlternative Rock Music CDs
