The Sea Customer Reviews:
Stunning and soothing
At the first listen, I felt oddly let down...But then I started to read the lyrics...and now I'm addicted. I have listened to this album almost everyday for the past few weeks. Beautiful, haunting, varied, and substantial. A must-listen.
Talented songstress belts them out
The new album from Corinne Bailey Rae is filled with the kind of evocative longing that only someone who has lost a beloved one can deliver. Her songs are at once sad and happy, if that is possible, and the entire CD is filled with listenable tracks. I love it!
Jus didn't like it.
Found it to be boring and typical...sounded like an album full of "unreleased rarites." Although I empathize wit her loss, I hope she doesn't continue on the path of mourning for her next project. I don't mind it being "dark", but the are many albums/songs with even darker subject matter (take Clapton's "Tears In Heaven" for example) that are classic.
You can hear the sadness
This CD was produced after the death of her husband. You can hear the sadness and longing in her voice. This was a healing process for the artist. It is a beautiful CD in the fact that the emotions are real and on the surface.
SOOOO disappointed!
Man! I waited and waited for her to release a new CD, and I have to say I completely agree with what the other 1 and 2 star raters have said. Where is the sparkle??? I also have the issue with being unable to understand her words often and the volume changes. I can barely hear her voice at times....like there was a big production problem. When I play one of these songs after one off her 1st CD, it's like someone is muffling the sound. I'm so glad I didn't buy this but listened to a copy from our local library first. Let's hope third time is a charm with her next CD.
