Comment on Discovery :: Cannelle by Eric Lower

Eric Lower — Sun, 18 Jul 2021 00:14:10 +0000

Very diverse and talented multi-disciplinary artist. I discovered her work on instagram last year while she was doing a Tori Amos Challenge (performing one cover live each day for a full month) and the regularity of her work, her talent for playing the guitar or piano, her voice and her charming self when she is seen live immediately made me want for more.

In addition to all those great traits, Cannelle is highly regarded and respected on the instagram community and she keeps working hard to write, record and compose music for the Skylark Bell books and podcasts!

A great fan of Cannelle

I’d never heard that version! And I had absolutely no idea that “There’s Always Something There …” was a remix. She has a unique voice. Thanks for introducing me to Sandie Shaw!

Matthew Sweet’s ‘Girlfriend’ album is one of my all-time favorite albums! I still listen to it regularly and it never gets old. Love, love, love his music!!!

Yes. Great song.

Comment on Discovery: Dominique Pruitt by Mars

Mars — Sat, 13 Oct 2012 04:04:31 +0000

This is a fantastic song and a brilliant video! The colors are vibrant (not just her hair!) and the shots are well composed. And I agree, it does have a rather retro feel to it. Great stuff!

Love Jeanette & miss her & CB, wish they would come around in NY!

Comment on Spotlight on Rebakah Jordan by Jeanne M.

Jeanne M. — Wed, 18 Jul 2012 14:45:50 +0000

Glad to see how far Rebekiah Johnson (now Jordan) has come. ‘Ruby Jean and Joe’ was an eye-opening movie, and her singing voice is that much better, good for her.

OK now I’m more curious than ever! 🙂

Comment on Album Review: Estuaries by Amber Lee and the Anomalies by jack

jack — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 04:41:37 +0000

I have to disagree. I think this artist has a long way to go before they reach a point where they should be recording an album. Musically, the songs are melodic, though hardly memorable.

The true crime is in the lyrics: they are obvious and banal and in some cases unintentionally laughable. There are no compelling stories or character studies here, only labored exposition and bad rhyme.

I tried taking a look at your website in my blackberry and the layout does not seem to be correct. Might want to check it out on WAP as well as it seems most cell phone layouts are not working with your site.

Comment on Album Review: Stratospherical by Black Fortress of Opium by Ajda the TQ

Ajda the TQ — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 02:25:32 +0000

Thanks Anna!!! Just one note, though, Brian Viglione did not play drums on “Afyonkarahisar Battle Cry.” Joe Turner played drums on the track.

Comment on Album Review: The Adventures of Jodelle by Jodelle by sarah

sarah — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 01:59:38 +0000

“Once In A Blue Moon” is clearly the best song on this album.

I like Zooey so I might give this a shot anyway.

Comment on Album Review: Petits Chansons Méchantes by Claudine Muno and the Lunaboots by Nick

Nick — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 00:14:54 +0000

Agreed, it is a fantastic album, kooky and melancholy. Dans la lune and The Sky Is Not That Far are both sublime. Surprised she is not better known.

Cool.

Comment on New Sarah Slean video by Amy

In reply to Cameron. Not sure which one I'l like best. But I really like the snippets I have heard online of all of it. I'm excited to hear it!

Comment on New Sarah Slean video by Cameron

Cameron — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 20:26:16 +0000

I have. Any idea what album will speak to you more? I’m thinking Sea based on that genre and the more grand style of songs, but I like what I have heard of ‘Land’.

Amy — Thu, 21 Jul 2011 18:21:06 +0000

In reply to SPEEDbit. So true! I have loved stuff that others found hideous and vice versa. With all this controversy I want to hear it now and see which one I agree with :)

Comment on Album Review: Snakes In The Grass by Sparrow and the Workshop by SPEEDbit

SPEEDbit — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 12:05:46 +0000

We loved the album. We all have different musical tastes and a different way of hearing things. That’s what makes music so interesting!!

John — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 19:57:56 +0000

lazy and rather sloppy crit-investigate this group and you’ll find integrity and sincerity–their music is difficult to categorize and often reduces critics to grasping for an easy out. Kate Bush/Grace Slick/P J Harvey ….nope– Amy Lee and the Cranberries-‘fraid not.

Comment on Album Review: Snakes In The Grass by Sparrow and the Workshop by Brian Boru

Brian Boru — Sun, 19 Jun 2011 20:03:18 +0000

Horribly written review.
This music is too good for you as weakling writer.
It is all just too complex for you.
They are a very good band and you need re-training.

Comment on Album Review: The Silent Awakening by Tina Malia by Catherine Todd

Catherine Todd — Fri, 20 May 2011 21:47:48 +0000

Couldn’t have said it better myself. “Floored” is the word. Trying to find a list of all the instruments used, particularly the harpischord / zither sound on “In Sunlight.” Chills all over my body. Gorgeous.
