Free Music Notes for Volume One
Free Music Review: Bubblegum
Hit: 1 Stars
Wow - I thought we were through with bubblegum music a long time ago. Also, production value sounds low. And to think this effort was written up in Rolling Stone Magazine. Guess they could not fill up enough MUSIC print space with their political agenda print this month.Free Music Review: I loved this CD
Hit: 5 Stars
I just got my CD of Zooey Deschanel's SHE & HIM yesterday and I personally love it!, If your a Zooey Deschanel fan and you love her voice then I recommend buying it. Free Music Review: A little disappointed.
Hit: 3 Stars
I gotta say, when I first heard that my favorite actress was making a cd (after Elf, I was dying to hear her sing more) with the singer of "Here Comes the Sun Again", I was incredibly excited. I told everyone about it.
And after listening to it, I'm a little disappointed.
Don't get me wrong. Zooey has an incredibly beautiful voice, when she stays in her range. Her low notes are breath-taking! But the high notes are a little harder to listen to.
And I would've liked to hear more from M. Ward.
But all in all, it's a fun album. And if you're like me and loved Zooey singing "Baby It's Cold Outside", then chances are you'll like at least a few songs on this cd.
Free Music Review: Zooey sings well, but not to her potential.
Hit: 3 Stars
I've been looking forward to this release since Elf. And there are some great youtubes of her singing ([...] is the best sound).
By no means is this music bad or poor. The songs on this CD are cute and have nice sound & harmony, but are not what I expected. The songs are short - the whole CD is only 36 minutes. If you are looking for singing as in the link above, this is not your album. If you like Colbie Caillat, this is similar.
One nice thing is how the music itself is rather subdued throughout the album which allows Zooey's voice to stand out.
I don't know M Ward, but I agree with the other comments - he's not heard very much. Of course, if he were, I'd be griping about him interfering with Zooey's vocals. I bought this because of Zooey and I'm already awaiting her next album.
Free Music Review: Not too bad.
Hit: 3 Stars
I'm a newer fan of Zooey, and was glad to find out about this album. I'll admit its probably not going to win any awards, or go platinum, but for a first CD, its not too bad. The type of music isn't really mainstream, so only those who have a taste for it will really appreciate it. Its pretty much Zooey, so her fans will like it more than M. Wards. She does seem to be singing in a higher range than you would expect, but mostly she seems to pull it off well. Perhaps there will be a second volume that better utilizes Zooey's unique sound. Overall, Not a terrible buy, but I would just buy the songs you like, and leave the rest.
