Free Music Review: I love this new CD from Shawn Colvin
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a very good new album from Shawn Colvin. Fill Me Up and So Good To See You are two very good songs about the need for warmth and friendship in lonely times. Shawn sounds great vocally, and she plays the guitar so effortlessly. The Bird is another standout track here. This is a beautiful song about the need to get away from the stress of daily life and to reflect on what is important. The title track is about how a person can feel so trapped and frustrated in life that death seems like the only option. This song is very powerful. Tuff Kid is another excellent song about survival and overcoming obstacles in life. The violin playing gives this song a very upbeat quality. Shawn covers a Bee Gee classic entitled Words on this album. Her rendition of this song is very romantic. Let It Slide is an excellent song. It is about how no relationship is smooth and perfect. Summer Dress is a bittersweet song about saying good bye to a friend. I'm Gone is a highlight track with a nice blues sound. This is an excellent CD from Shawn Colvin filled with moving songs.Free Music Review: Colvin To The Core
Hit: 5 Stars
The posted Amazon editor review pretty much hits the mark in regard to Shawn Colvin's new CD "These Four Walls." It's been a long wait since "Whole New You" but this CD was worth the wait. Colvin remains an astute storyteller and her melodies and vocal delivery again shine (lyrics like "We never lived, we just survived" from "Summer Dress" show how she can hit you emotionally with simple words - - which is, to me, the hallmark of a really good songwriter). Every song here is strong with "Summer Dress" and "Venetian Blue" being standouts. If you enjoy "A Few Small Repairs" and "Whole New You" you will love this CD. John Leventhal again provides great production and musical prowess - - let's hope they always work together. Heart's Nancy Wilson recently said in an interview that she is "Colvin to the core." Listen to "These Four Walls" and you'll be to!Free Music Review: Shawn Colvin returns to form with a brilliant new album
Hit: 5 Stars
Five years was worth the wait. Shawn Colvin returns to form after the uneven "Whole New You." The reason, amazing songwriting. "Summer Dresses" is the highlight among a great collection of songs. The lyrics are subtle and moving--she doesn't strain to write poetically. The production is also more restrained than it was on her last effort, never overpowering the heartfelt, personal, and evocative vocal performance.
