Great musical talent
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I love her version of Mad World a ton. The rest of the songs are just okay, she does this crazy sounding vibrato thing that is really unnecessary and distracts from the song. I was kinda disappointed cause I think she is really talented and I heard her sing Gotta Get thru this with Daniel Beddingfield on the show Fame Academy and it was awesome.
i just love this album, lost mine and was over the moon to find it here on ebay, she has a amazing voice ..
When Alex won fame Academy I didnt take much notice of her or her singing. But I bought the CD (and the follow up album) a few weeks back and I love it. theres not one track that I skip over, which for me is a triumph. Alex has covered songs such as Here Comes The Rain,Yellow and Imagine and has put her own twist and mark on them all with her distinctive voice and feeling. There are some superb new tracks too, Cry, Not youre average kind of girl and Over conscious being 3 brilliant ones - well worth a listen to the lyrics. All in all en excellent album, virtually played constantly since I bought it and ive got a second copy for the car too! A1 Alex, come nack and do some more. The seconf album, Honesty is also a great album - with more new tracks than covers - as good if not better.
Alex has really made a style for herself in this album. Some of her own work sounds like the work of an artist that has been round the block a few times, not that of a newcomer. She is one of the few singers I know that can cover a song and make it her own. Alex maintains a completely individual sound that is recognizable. I imagine she could stay the distance if she can belive in herself. Part of her charm for me is her distinct lack of realization of just how good she is. Probably the least likely artist to turn diva!
