   The lushness and quirky uniqueness of Raes voice caught my attention upon my very first listen of "Put your record on". Unfortunately the goosebumps which populated my arms after this one listen, as they do every time I think I've made a new musical "discovery" for myself, were nowhere to be seen upon my initial listening of Corinne's full length. While it's few high points deliver some memorable (and infectiously hum-able) melodies, the majority of this album seems tailor made for the docile and inattentive ears of Gap shoppers and bank queuers everwhere.

   VH1, please stop recommending music; your scale of awesomeness is way off mark. Let's see, Maroon 5, Jason Mraz, Black Eyed Peas, Jamie Cullum, James Blunt, Daniel Powter, and the Fray. With the exception of KT Tunstall, you have proven to not have a good ear for music. Corinne Bailey Rae...I've heard this stuff before. I didn't like it then, and my opinion has only grown harsher for the "poet who can sing". Unoriginal arrangements, hackneyed lyrics, and a voice that's merely pretty. This, of course, translates into revenue for Capitol, and it helps the industry who wants to keep everyone's expectations low so that they can market more artists like her. Here's a tip...get Neko Case's "Fox Confessor Brings The Flood". Or Beth Orton's "Comfort of Strangers". Both have better arrangements, better lyrics, and better songs than "Corinne Bailey Rae", and therefore, are better albums. I trust VH1 with "Flavor of Love", and not much else. What happened...to the human race?… Expand
