Under The RadarAny fans of Jewel turned off by her recent pop conversion should find some solace, and even some better tunes, in Leona Naess. [#5, p.114]
-
Less immediately ear-grabbing than the previous disc, this self-titled record nonetheless sinks in deeply after a mere handful of plays.
-
Often beautifully sung, always pretty, the album still seems troubled beyond heartbreak.
-
Her confidence blossomed this time around and vocally, she's never sounded so good.
-
Naess is quite comfortable doling out one melodic ditty after another.
-
Naess, abetted by her prettily winsome voice, seems ever perched on a razor's edge of heartbreak and hope -- not an easy trick, but for the most part she pulls it off.

BlenderThese songs are pleasant, stripped-down and also a little limp. [Oct 2003, p.124]
-
Sure, it takes some time to sink in, but once it gets a hold of your heart, it won't let go.
-
Unlike Leona Naess the musician, Leona Naess the album is nearly forgettable, such is the perfection of its production and cardboard cut-out lyrical and musical themes.
