Free Music Review: continuing Simply Red...
Hit: 5 Stars
The last Simply Red album I purchased was Stars. DirecTV offered this album as a concert. I recorded it and have been watching it ever since. Don't know what bothered anyone else, but this is the best album ever that I have heard from them. His voice and the backups are excellent!! I continue to listen to my recording and hope more will!! There is not a song that I do not like on this album.Free Music Review: home to hall & oates
Hit: 5 Stars
I don't care for what I read about Mick Hucknall, but in "Home", there is a song, SUNRISE--the best part of the album. I've purchased this album only because of this song(from Hall & Oates, soulful background track)With his words and voice added along with a beautiful girl in the background, he cannot miss with this song, NOT the album. Not a Bob Dylan fan either, but when I receive it, will try the other songs as well. the 5 STARS are for SUNRISE!!!Free Music Review: Still worth the Sunrise
Hit: 3 Stars
There are not too many good ones on this one.. BUT. BUT BUT BUT-
You NEED SUNRISE. Just like De La Soul sampled 'I can't go for that' -Hall & Oats - with much success-- so does Red on Sunrise. Such a great song. It is so amazing.
Red also covers Bob Dylan on this one and it is really good.
With the exception of 'Pocket Book'--Like all Simply Red albums-- I am totaly blown away by one or two songs. Antother one or two are pretty good-- one or two are very ok, and the rest are kinda tired (like old red himself).
Free Music Review: Giving It 3 Stars For Track 3...
Hit: 3 Stars
I am giving this album 3 stars because I only like track 3 on this album "Sunrise".
My friends mom told me that she heard this new song at the time by Hall and Oates and she said it sounded like they made an updated version "I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)" which is one of my all time fave songs. She said it was really good but could not find a single for it. I just happened to be watching VH1 and caught a new video by Simply Red called "Sunrise" after watching the video I realized that it sounded a lot like the Hall and Oates song... I was thinking this is good...has a good beat to it...and the singing is incredible on this song...so I decided to go out and buy the album... my friends mom listened to it and she was like yeah this is the song! So she went out and bought the album...but I was a bit disappointed with it.
The first track "Home" wasn't a good placement for an opener because it's not strong and upbeat and doesn't draw you into the album ...but it is beautifully sung and I like the piano in it.
"Sunrise" and "Money In My Pocket" don't even fit on this album. These 2 would fit better with maybe "Love And The Russian Winter" after the track "Ain't That A Lot Of Love".
The rest of the album lacks anything unique...way too mellow for my taste.
So again 3 out of 5 stars.
Free Music Review: Somewhat Weak
Hit: 3 Stars
Ok, I gave it a 3 and it hurt to do it. I love Mick Hucknall, and I was so excited when this CD was released because like all Red fans, I had been hoping for something new. I love the title track and Sunrise is special, but much of the rest is just not up to the incredible standards set in the past. I want more original tunes from this guy. The clever insite shown in his lyrics from past outings just wasn't there. I could never give a Red album less than a 3, but I was let down.
