iTunes Review
Vanessa Carlton has dispatched her many helpers, writing most of the songs herself and accompanying herself on piano. The musical expanse of “I Don’t Want To Be a Bride,” co-written with Ari Ingber and Steve Osbourne, is a moment when Carlton comes near pure pop but even there it’s tempered with a level of personal introspection more in tune with herself than the pop world. The subliminal and ethereal push of “Hear the Bells” is so evocative and effective that one wishes it were twice as long. “Dear California,” the album’s other co-write with Ingber, is a driving acoustic-guitar composition where Carlton comes close to Liz Phair’s compact early pop. “Tall Tales for Spring” has the angular rhythms of Fiona Apple and Tori Amos, but with a sweetness unique to Carlton. “Get Good” is a striking ballad, highlighted by a wonderfully double-tracked vocal. “In the End” settles things with another beautifully ethereal piece. The Deluxe Edition of the album offers greater insights, featuring three live tracks that, while “acoustic,” are still ornately arranged, and three videos that allow the listener to see what Carlton has been up to.
Customer Reviews
Worth the wait
I've been a fan of Vanessa Carlton for about 3 years now. After hearing several live performances of some songs on this album before it came out, I knew it was going to be some of her best work yet. Sure enough: it is. The lyrics are a masterpiece as always, capturing love in its most raw form (which is far from easy to achieve), weaving beautiful metaphors into each song, and displaying themes of many kinds. The dreamy sort of sound and the children's choir add that touch that tipped this album off the edge; they are the perfect new addition. Even if you aren't a fan of her work, only know her for A Thousand Miles, or for any other reason: grab this album anyway. Trust me, it's worth it. These songs are relateable and clever, not exactly something you come across everyday. I believe anyone can enjoy this gem.
Awesome
She's so inspiring
A work of art from a true artist
This album is beautiful. I was a bit nervous that I wasn't going to like it since this sound is so different from what I usually listen to (and the type of music Vanessa usually makes), but I was pleasantly surprised (and that's an understatement). This is a truly magnificent album, it's very artistic and aesthetic, but make no mistake - there are definitely glimmers of Vanessa's pop background hovering just behind the ethereal, analog production. I strongly recommend this album to Vanessa fans new and old. "Dear California" and "Get Good" are particularly brilliant, and "I Don't Want to Be a Bride" and "Fairweather Friend" also shine. All in all, this is a fantastic album, and I hope it gets the recognition - both from critics and the public - that it deserves.
