Free Music Notes for The Bird & The Bee
Free Music Review: Fun, good music
Hit: 4 Stars
I like! It's a unique sound, and very artistically put together. The vocals really are beautiful. The harmonies are edgy, and the instrumentals are exceptionally well done.Free Music Review: Lovely
Hit: 5 Stars
Beautiful soprano, dreamy vocals, witty lyrics and an ambient electronica feel. Sort of lounge music with an edge. Part of what I like about it is that it's a little bit hard to describe. Free Music Review: Pretty, but...
Hit: 4 Stars
I'm really enjoying this CD, but wondering how one "lie[s] prostate on the ground" (Because). Oops. A bit of a Freudian slip there?
I'm also wondering why the explicitness is necessary. As far as I can tell, the album gets this label because of some curse words, none of which I think add value to the songs.
Free Music Review: Wow! There is some decent music in the new millenium!
Hit: 5 Stars
As I grew up in the 60's, I must say up front that I am spoiled rotten... Some of the songs released from 1966 through 1969 defined an era and shaped a generation. I own about 500 Cd's, most from 1964 to 1980. In the new millennium, I've had a difficult time relating to the music and lyrics dominating the airwaves and media. As a musician, I haven't found tunes I would want to learn and play until...
I discovered the Bird and Bee at work. Reebok International has a music mode system, one of them entitled "Metro Blend". One morning I heard this mind blowing song mixing exotic, haunting music with kooky exceptional lyrics. The song was "Lalala". I ran into the office to see who the band was that performed the song. That evening, I ordered their Cd on Amazon, and I haven't stopped listening to it since. Every song is a gem. Inara and Greg have a way of taking their tunes right to the edge without going over the line into schmaltz or boredom. The Bird and Bee combine Pop, Rock, Techno and Jazz into most of their songs as well as quirky, unforgettable lyrics. I recommend their album highly. You won't be sorry, I promise you.

Hit: 5 Stars
Inara George has an effortless, luxurious and sweet voice, one of the best I've heard in years (and I'm a tough critic when it comes to women singers). Greg Kurstin is a genius composer and multi-instrumentalist, who took his love for Brazilian instrumentation and adapted it cleverly to contemporary pop with a retro twist. I can't say enough about their eponymous release (standout tracks: F-cking Boyfriend, La La La, My Fair Lady, Again & Again) and two recently released EPs (One Too Many Hearts & Please Clap Your Hands). The lyrics are very accessible, not too cerebral, but meaningful just the same. I'm in love with everything they put their hands on/voices to.
