It's not "Waiting", but worth a listen........2006-06-07

Ok, I love Maren. Love love love. She's in my top ten artists, and has some songs that are just sheer brilliance.

Waiting has got to be one of my favourite albums. It's just amazing from track to track. Not Today, I wish I could say the same.

It seems that she's drifting more to the pop/rock spectrum, rather than the same pop/folk thing she had going on.

Maren can do much better, but this album is still better than more than half the stuff that is on the charts at the moment. Worth a listen, people who haven't heard Waiting will especially like it..

Disappointed.......2005-04-25

I absolutely loved Maren's first album, Waiting - almost every song of it. The combination of gentle acoustics and the occasional energetic semi-rocker (e.g. "Perfect"), with meaningful and creative lyrics all through, made it one of my favorites, and it still is. So for the longest time I was waiting for her second release really expectantly, and was really excited when it was here.

Unfortunately, it doesn't at all match her first album. For one thing, there are only 6 tracks! I know she's been busy getting married and all since her first CD, but you'd think this one would at least be a full LP. However, the music itself doesn't match the first by a long shot, either. It's not so much the style or the tunes or instrumentals, they're great. It does have a more rock-like sound, and it's one that I like. I do miss the softer songs from the first one - like Waiting, All I Want is You, Beautiful, and others.

And that gets into my main point - the lyrics and the content. Especially songs like "Not Today" and "Say Goodbye" - they're the kind of "Miss Independent" stuff that there wasn't any of on the first album, and that I don't particularly enjoy. Her first album was full of youthful hope and excitement and romance and personal trials, and the lyrics were so easy to relate to. But the ones on here sound more like a lot of the other artists and songs out there in the mainstream - a lot more like regular pop music.

The best song is probably "Where Are You Now" - it definitely comes the closest to the material on her first CD, in terms of the raw emotion and the struggle at making sense of people, relationships and the world, and trying to find meaning. Very non-superficial, and something I wish there was a lot more of here.

I still gave this 3 stars, because it certainly still is better than most CDs out there, it's very well-produced, and Maren is one talented singer and songwriter. But I hope we don't have to wait very long for the next full album from her, and I think it'll be fine if she keeps the production but tries to get the feel of it back in some ways to "Waiting."

THE UNAUTHORISED BIOGRAPHY OF SHERYL CROW.......2003-06-29

If you are wondering about how Sheryl Crow came into the music buisness and what her influences on her music where this is the CD for you. It lasts about an hour and talks about how and where she grew up. It explained how she had trouble herself getting into the music business at such a late age but others where able to persuade her into it and join up with A&M studios. Then it goes into detail about her first couple of records Tuesday Night Music Club, and the trials and tribulations of putting that together and how that group broke up. Then she was able to become more independentant with later and later records and become what she is today. The recording content is done by a British company, so there are bits and pieces of interviews but not much. There is a Booklet that comes along with it but it is hard to follow along with but the information is there so I gave it 4 stars.
