...but it's really good!
total 60's/70's pop, ala bacharach&warwick, with a little southern twang thrown in. total pedigree of a production: watson twins do back up vox; jimmy haskell does string arrangements; buncha other vets. it's great pop, but does, in places, get a little m.o.r. but hey, that's to be expected.
FCC CLEAN.
RIYL: warwick, bacharach, spector, et al.
MR. ESQ. SEZ: MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOV (THAT'S HALF A 'W'.)
PLAY THESE TRACKS: 1, 2, 3, 5.
*1. BEST TRACK: dionne warwick&bacharach soundalike. perfect pop perfection. brills kill in laurel canyon.
*2. BEST TRACK II: sweet and twangy. 60's country pop. lush bacharach orchestration.
*3. piano -I like piano! cloying and tiny tune.
4. countryish, neko case.
*5. back to brills. slow-mid. it's epic, baby!
6. sounds like norah jones.
7. haunty country guitar. becomes most m.o.r. track so far...
8. oh shit!: it's sheryl crow!
9. haunty gits. very sultry.
10. cheesy, cheesy, cheesy.
11. nice, slow-mid, brilly.
