Apr 9, 2017Melody has a very smooth and beautiful voice, making it very easy to listen to and watch time just effortlessly pass by. It would be nice to have a faster, more powerful song built into the album to give it a sort of climax; but I am more of a rock fan and something a rock fan would say.

JamesA.Jul 23, 2009Being allergic to smooth jazz singers and the like I was pleasantly surprised that this album was not that. I read somewhere that she was influenced in part by Caetano Veloso - I'm glad that it comes across.

markr.Jun 22, 2009Just close your eyes and listen to the lyrics and melody's sweet vocals. If you love Jazz vocals this is a nice album to add to the collection, better yet catch her live you wont regret it.

A model of crisp economy and deep craft, Gardot's singular vision spans bossa nova ("Les Etoile"), blues ('Who Will Comfort Me'), noir ('Your Heart Is as Black as Night'), art song ('The Rain'), and a fistful of romantic ballads that are at once timeless and thrillingly original.

Gardot's wistful, breathy voice belies her youth and the unobtrusive competence of this album effortlessly belies the difficulties she has striven to overcome.

This followup to her successful Worrisome Heart is mostly wistful, sometimes strings-accompanied originals.
