Review by Amy Lotsberg Producer of Collected Sounds
I have gone back and forth on my feelings about this record for the several months I’ve had it in my rotation. First listen I thought: Nice smooth sounds. Not really my thing personally, but she’s good. I went from that, to hearing a cheeseball factor in there (on The Voice…however, I listened again today and it’s fine. Go figure.)
Then I liked it again and she reminded me of Sade. So I guess what I can take from this is that it’s not all that consistent. Or maybe I am not.
Fly Away is pleasant and makes me think of nighttime in the city. I like this one more every time I hear it. It’s a good solid song with lovely vocals.
In Love With You is very nice. It’s so soothing. Couple times now this has caught my ear. This is another favorite. Very sexy. *Rawrrr*.
While the R & B genre isn’t my top choice, I like it sometimes if it’s done well, and I do like this for the most part. If you like the genre, check it out.
