Album Name:Savage Garden
Artist:Savage Garden
Rating:
Comments:An EXCELLENT album. Every song is single worthy! SG puts a classic 80's touch to their pop music, creating a unique, one of a kind style. Some good examples of this style are: To the Moon and Back, I Want You, Tears of Pearls, Carry On Dancing and Santa Monica(My fave).
Album Name:Left of the Middle
Artist:Natalie Imbruglia
Rating:
Comments:Cool! That one word sums up Natalie's album. This album has a very up-beat, classic pop sound. This is one CD that won't make you fall asleep. She has excellent song transitions that keep you listening and wanting more.Some songs are: Torn, Wish I Was There, Impressed Don't You Think,and my faves Pigeons and Crumbs and Don't You Think
Album Name:Duncan Sheik
Artist:Duncan Sheik
Rating:
Comments:AMAZING!! At first I doubted wether this CD would be good, but after listening to it I'm hooked. Duncan mixes the timeless sound of the string orchestra with "pop/alternative". You have to appreciate the orchestra to like it though. Like Duncan said, his sound is the "alternative to alternative". His songs are very in-depth and positive! This album grabs you. Some of these suprisingly excellent songs are:Reasons for Living, Days Go By(my fave), Home, The End Of Outside and In The Absense Of Sun(another fave).
Album Name:Surfacing
Artist:Sarah McLachlan
Rating:
Comments:Sarah's smooth, urban sound is enlaced within her thought-provoking and meaningful lyrics. Even her occasional "up-beat" songs, like Black and White are excellent. This is another one of those addictive CD's. Some excellent examples of her urban sound are:Building a Mystery, Adia, Angel and Last Dance.
Album Name:Pieces Of You
Artist:Jewel
Rating:
Comments:Jewel's soft, sensitive sound blends well with her harmonic melodies. This album is definetly well done. Some songs are: Who Will Save Your Soul, Foolish games, Adrian(my fave)You Were Meant For Me and Morning song
Album Name:Marcy Playground
Artist:Marcey Playground
Rating:
Comments:A good album at the right time. The continuosly mellow beats can make you fall asleep, but the lyrics are very intriguing. Some good songs are: Poppies, Sex and Candy, Sherry Fraser, Opium and One More Suicide

*Note: Saint Joe on the School Bus may be offensive to some individuals due to it's mention of homosexuality and prostitution.
