Free Music Review: If you have an Overdose d'Amore,call a doctor immediately!
Hit: 2 Stars
The concept of an Italian blues singer sounds intriguing. Why not? Genre-blending and crossover are incredibly popular, especially in world music. One can enjoy a spicy mix of Algerian rai and Jamaican reggae with Cheb Mami and Ziggy Marley's "Madanite", and cringe when listening to the blend of Afropop/Latin rock/classical crossover with Angelique Kidjo, Josh Groban and Carlos Santana's "Pearls."
Zucchero's "Overdose d'Amore" is sappy enough to warrant a doctor's prescription. One would need a shot of insulin to get one's sugar levels regularized. "Diamante", the opening track,is archetypal easy listening,perfect for the dentist's office. "Va Pensiero" has Zucchero sounding like a moaning, bad Italian John Denver. The third song sounds like an ode to gnocchi (it is about herbs and spices. Would you like Parmesan with that?) In "Cosi Celeste",the talented Cheb Mami is relegated to the sidelines as Zucchero's groaning "She's my baby" is his attempt to be a blues man. "Muoio para te" is bombastic, and Sting is swept into it. Finally, there are "Blue" and "Miserere",overblown,bombastic songs composed by U2's front man, Bono. "Blue" is a pseudo-blues song&is a waste of Sheryl Crow's talents. She is better off singing her own songs. "Miserere" IS misery,as the title says,in its odd combination of the Latin Mass and Italian blues.
If you have an Overdose d'Amore, take a few aspirins, drink plenty of water and hot tea, and call the doctor in the morning.
