And I wasn't too keen on yet another pop version of The Water is Wide. But despite layered vocals, ethereal feel and piano she manages to avoid Enya-terrain. All in all I was surprised that she actually brings something new to these songs (at least for me). Admittedly, the layered vocal style can be a bit much so that a song like Pontchartrain which has her singing the verses with just one voice (the layered vocals are all her own) is a bit of a revelation. Because undeniably she does have a beautiful voice. Anyway before I'm starting to bore you - does anybody know the album? I'd like to hear some (expert ;-)) opinions. How do you like her approach to these songs? |
