Caterpillar

Reseña de álbum

Though it's simply touted as the international version of Soundtrack '96-'06, which was a collection of Elisa's favorites (plus a few new songs), Caterpillar actually has a fairly different track listing from its predecessor, swapping out some of the Italian singer's (who often sings in English) older hits for newer singles. There is some overlap: the song "Stay" and what was her duet with Ligabue previously, "Gli Ostacoli del Cuore," now just with featuring Elisa, both show up here, as do cuts like "Broken," "Luce (Tramonti a Nord Est)," and "Heaven Out of Hell," but the rest of the compilation (which is significantly shorter than Soundtrack — 13 tracks to 17 — and lacks the handwritten lyrics and notes that were included in the Italian issue) is filled up with songs like "Electricity," "Rock Your Soul," and a cover of the Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses." All of which means that Caterpillar is less retrospective (hence the title change) than introduction, something to entertain Elisa's audience outside Italy who may have run across one of her songs, and probably not for longtime fans.
