Album Description

Limited Edition UK-only pressing of the 2006 album from Emma Bunton (AKA Baby Spice) features three bonus tracks: 'Something Tells Me (Something's Gonna Happen', 'Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps' and Por Favour'. Life In Mono is Emma's most honest album to date, an intimate reflection of Emma's life and loves that reveal more than she was ever expecting. Musically it sounds like a rich pop album even at first listen, with rich orchestral backing, gorgeous harmonies and the sort of chorus' Burt Bacharach could be proud of. It moves from the stunningly tender 'All I Need To Know' to cheeky jazz of 'Undressing You' and the luscious Carpenters style of 'I'm Not Crying Over Yesterday's' . Above all it captures Emma's thoroughly modern take on elegant 60's Pop. Universal.

Album Details

The Third Solo Album from the Former "Baby Spice" Girl and the UK'S Pop Sweetheart. For a Limited Time this Edition Comes with Three Bonus Tracks : "Something Tells Me (Something's Gonna Happen) ", "Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps" and "Por Favour '.

5 out of 5 stars WOW. This album is FAB baby........2007-06-30

I left this review for a few days so I could give it few listenings.
Free Me was a really great album, which I did not buy until March this year.
When I first listen to it I was blown away, I just did not expect this from Emma.
Now over to Life In Mono, First listening to It did not seem as good as Free Me.
But its a grower Emma has a sweet singing voice, which is pleasant to listen to. All the songs are good, still having the 60s bossa nova sound to most of them. Best tracks are. Life In Mono, Mischievous, He Loves Me Not, I Wasn't Looking, Take Me To Another Town, I'm Not Crying Over Yesterdays, All That You'll Be, and Something Tells Me.
All in all this is a solid album, and is as good as Free Me if not better.
well done Emma for a third fantastic album, and the best so far.
Rating Six stars, yes it really is that good.

5 out of 5 stars Another great release... destined to be ignored in the US.......2007-06-20

Emma has given us another really great 60's influenced pop album. Out of all the Spice Girls, who would have imagined that the one called "Baby Spice" would end up with the most accomplished pop career? She chose substance over commercialism and really hit a home run with pop fans. Why hasn't she been asked to sing the next 007 theme song? Or alteast be a Bond girl in the next film?
All 3 releases have been laid back, and thoroughly enjoyable. I'm happily looking forward to more of the same.

4 out of 5 stars Great follow up!!!.......2007-05-12

Former Spice Girl, Emma Bunton's new album Life in Mono is a great step forward. It follows the same vein as her last album and I would highly recommend it if you loved her first.

4 out of 5 stars Almost a Pop Masterpiece.......2007-04-26

Its really ironic that the most 'untalented' of the Spice Girls bunch would consistently provide us with such good material into the 2000s. Her last album "Free Me" was a classic that still finds plays on my Ipod.

1. If you love 1960s 'girl-group' melodies, you will love this.
2. If you like film-noir, and the soundtracks to the James Bond and Austin Powers series, you will love this.
3. If you like very poppy verse-chorus-verse, you will love this
4. If you're into Bossa Nova, Brazilian beach pop, and a little bit of reggae, you will adore this.

At its best, this sounds like a lost soundtrack to some 1960s French masterpiece by Truffaut. Very "Umbrellas of Cherbourg" but with a lot more zest and pep. You really have to get it and find out what I'm talking about.

The only downside is that the opening track is the weakest here, so many people may be put off. Do get this and discover a fabulous artist you may have neglected until now just because of her "Spice Girls" tag.

To sum up, Emma is a million times more accomplished and a real artist when compared to the remaining Spice Girls. This one album is better than all the others' solo releases combined. Seriously.

4 out of 5 stars The Next Chapter.......2007-03-28

Life In Mono continues in the same vein as Free Me... sort of.

While there are a few tracks with that same sun-drenched bossa nova sound (Mischevious, He Loves Me Not), this is not Free Me II, but the next chapter of Emma's journey. The album opens with a lovely ballad, "All I Need To Know"- gutsy move! Next, the title track is a cover of a song by the group Mono. Where the original was like a dark music box tune, here it's been reworked like a James Bond theme (Anyone else think Ms. Bunton should REALLY do a Bond theme?).

The standouts are "I Wasn't Looking (When I Found Love)" and "Take Me To Another Town", both with catchy melodies and lush cinematic orchestrations. On "Undressing You", and especially the bonus track "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps", Emma shows she can convincingly go from sweetie to seductress in a heartbeat.

As wonderful as Free Me was, Life In Mono is a more mature affair. This is music for grown-ups, for lounging around on lazy Sundays or sultry late nights. Once again, Emma has proved her talent. She has found music that suites her voice perfectly, and she delivers it with sensuality and class- a rarity in today's popular music.

It remains to be seen if this album will be released stateside as Free Me was, and if it will be sucessfully pitched to the American market, which might too easily mistake it for "Easy Listening", which it most certainly is not. Let's keep our fingers crossed. We need more music like this.

5 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Life CD by Lara Fabian.......2007-01-10

I have been enjoying listening to Lara Fabian's CD because she has a wonderful voice and all the songs are good on this CD. I would recommend this CD to anyone.

2 out of 5 stars a waste of a true talent..........2006-09-19

Lara Fabian has demonstrated on CD's such as "9" that her voice is unrivaled, and that she has an artist's ability to convey sadness, joy, beauty and pain through her music. She has a rare and intuitive way of making the listener feel as if she has lived every word of every song she has written. When she is at her best, there is simply no one else in her class.

You would never know it, however, from listening to this CD. This is a pop/rock album produced by Sony to appeal to young American fans. The up-tempo pop melodies, accompanied by synthesizers and drum machines drown out her voice and prevent Lara from expressing herself. The delicate beauty, honesty and intimacy that so typifies the other albums that Lara has recorded is missing here.

If you are used to listening to the likes of Jessica Simpson, Christina Aguilera, Hillary Duff, and Britney Spears, then you will no doubt be impressed with this album, as it is certainly a cut above the music that most teenagers enjoy. If you are looking for something more than that, then don't waste your money on this CD.

Buy "Nue" or "9", and allow Lara to cast her spell on you, as she did on me.

5 out of 5 stars THE REVIEW !.......2006-08-30

After listening to this album for more than a 100 times, I think the review worth trusting. So here's the song-by-song review after a general description.

General Description :
Remember this Lara Fabian rule that works on everyone : the voice of Lara Fabian is so much convincing that you will always forget she writes lyrics and composes music ! Her vocal talent is THE key, but also her spirit. This album is pretty different musically from her english debut : it is more acoustic and closer to country-like music.

No big deal : A real good opening, the song is warm and it supports all the wisedome in its lyrics : "Think Im losing the fight, to make sens of it all". The singing gets more powerful as the song reaches its end.

I am : "Take these empty hands, this is all I am." The song is yet more pwerful than the first. The singing is very natural and true. Acoustic guitars are again the dominating instruments.

The last Goodbye : WOW ! I just love how the violon solo takes the first seconds to introduce acoustic guitar with keyboard synth. A very fresh song ! Very catchy and will leave something in ur mind. Dont be mad at it if it keeps on playin in your head all day.

I guessed I loved you (less than I should) : OMG ! A true gem. The 3.30 minutes song is devided in exact 2 parts. The first part is played on piano so soft with header lengend-like voice, so tenderly. She s telling her beloved "Im SORRY, and I want you back", more Im sorry. The starts the second part, orchestral and immensly unbeleivably powerful and stunning, with more "I WANT YOU BACK". I can tell you, if he heard her, he d be right back.

Conquered : Well it's time for some upbeat :) Very nice and lovely. The singing is so sweet and correct ! The song is so "light" abd cheers up.

Review my kisses : She s recorded that song for her debut album, much before Leann Rimes. But never made it to the final tracklisting. Now she's recording it again, more acoustic and easy. 5 minutes od full-time tenderness. Very acoustic and the spirit is there. Remember this song : it will be one of your favorites.

Unbreakable : Wise lyrics, taken from her hard experience with the french press (Who?) who were enough vulgar in critisizing her work (The kind who watch the best concert "but the skirt she wore was aweful, so her voice must be as well"). A little upbeat. "Take another look behind these eyes, it would take right around my heart. I feel, You should know, that Im not unbreakable".

Wonderful life : A sad song, in that phase where you are really sad but you're hoding on to your faith and hopeful. It's a remake. Very beatiful singing.

Intoxicated : She s written its music on her own, I dont beleive it. The first time i heard it, I got sothing from the song. But now I can tell you I wish this song would be half an hour long ! The Power of the voice of Miss Fabian ! Unbeleivable but true. How come she never loses her voice ? Well she simply sings right ! I'd say my favorite song... probably.

I've cried enough : The song starts with Storms effects. It's about faith. the songs ends at minute 3. Then there are 2 minutes with bass guitar and vocals rather than words. Very nice gift and version.

Silence : a 3-minutes song, upbeat. I muchly prefer teh french version. But it s very fresh and I must admit, it totally fits into the album.

Walk away : What a ballad ! It competes with all the best songs. The singing is perfect and sweet. Anyway, it s Walter Afanasief who's written it ! And the guy is good ! The song is so close to perfection. Sung with only an acoustic guitar, with one of the most brillant guitarists in the world "Jean-Felix Lalane".

Finally, from the spirit of this album I recommend the following three albums :

Verspertine - Bjork (experimental has never been so wise)
Lara Fabian - Lara Fabian (remember this name, her songs CANNOT be performed BUT by herself)
Boys for Pele - Tori Amos (Rage + coldes pianos give such a wonderful way to throw away ur inside fires)


1 out of 5 stars Warning: Sony Copy Protected Disc.......2006-07-29

I haven't even listened to this disc yet. Why not? Because it's got that "triangles in circles" copy protection logo on it. And it's from Sony.

So, this disc has a logo on the front that says "SACEM SDRM". I don't _think_ that's the same copy protection that installed a root kit on computers earlier this year. But I'm not sure.

So my stance now is that no CD with that logo on it goes into my computer or stays in my collection. It's sad. I like this artist. But no CDs with this technology on it can be permitted to stay in my house, on the off chance that one of the kids will put it in a computer some day and forget to hold down the shift button. If that happens: Voila, the security of your computer is badly compromised, all in the name of keeping you from doing what you want with music you bought.

Don't let music publishers do that to you. Refuse to buy CDs that are copy protected. I just ordered this from Amazon, it just arrived, and it has this technology on it. I consider it intentionally defective goods. If I could give it zero stars, I would.

Keep in mind this is not a commentary on the quality of the music on this disc. I love Lara's voice and her music. But I'll have to pass on this disc.

5 out of 5 stars This CD is more sophisticated, plenty of emotions!!.......2006-07-04

At first I read the review 'WHERE'S THE EMOTION and wondered the same but the I litsened a few more times, this CD has plenty of her REAL emotions there, also they are more mature and not obvious like the first album. It shows that she grew a lot inside and she doesn't release CD just for the money or commercial. That's why there was a long gap between the 1st and 2nd enlish CD. I have to say she reveals more emotion when she sang in french or italian, (she's half belgique and half sicilian after all). These songs are not ballads that she imagine, these are feelings that are related to her heart and she didn't need the vocal gymnastics to express it....

I first heard the song Unborn Heart on the radio the day I heard my second child's heart beat for the first time! It was so touching! It was great to hear from the fathers perspective!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2000-05-18

A great treat! Dan includes history and inspirations for each song.

5 out of 5 stars More new stuff, please!.......2000-05-12

This great collection just proves that Dan Hill is not only one of Canada's great songwriters (for those of you who hadn't heard of him before: he sort of disovered Celine Dion and later penned her classic "Seduces Me") but also a wonderful singer with a truly recognizable voice.

His tunes are very romantic, intense and personal - to say the least - but they really shine if you're affected by this sort of music.

A brilliant collection that leaves you wanting for more of Dan Hill whose recent releases have been very rare, unfortunately - even though this new collection does include the odd as yet unreleased track.

5 out of 5 stars Great Compilation!.......2000-03-27

This is the ultimate collection of Dan Hill, very nice compilation of his greatest hits, I will recommand any fan to buy this CD.

      This is one of Neil's and Crazy Horses best works. Rates right up there with Live Rust and Freedom!

      4 out of 5 stars Most just don't get it........2004-11-02

      OK, this isn't one of Neil's masterpieces, but it's a pretty good effort. Those who say it's weak, or lacks emotion just don't get it. This cd is packed with emotion, it's just more subtle than his casual fans expect. One listen to "Prisoners of Rock-n-Roll" should confirm his state of mind. Of course, most of the schleps who want "Hey Hey, My My" on every cd won't like this one. This cd is pure Neil.

      1 out of 5 stars One so-so song, so one star.........2002-02-11

      This record is by far Neil Young and crazy Horses' worst. No need to own this at all, not even for completeists. "inca Queen" is the only half-decent song here, and it's overproduced. Avoid this CD!

      4 out of 5 stars Not his best but it's not terrible............2001-05-30

      Ok, I'll admit it. I actually like most of Neil's 80s stuff. Dunno what that says about me! Life isn't like a normal crazy horse record because the loud guitars aren't always present. However, the tunes are good which is what matters. The reason I took a star off was the 80s production where the drums sound totally flat and synthesisers are in most of the tracks. Sometimes this can be good but not always. Mideast Vacation is a good track and Around The World has the kind of savage guitars next seen on 'Don't Cry' off Freedom. Inca Queen is a bit slow but still quite cool. The rest of the tracks go along without really making a fuss. It does sound as though the album is there because one was needed. However, if you ignore the fact that this is Neil Young and put it next to other 80s records, it does come out looking good. It's just that we're used to something a bit more immediate from Neil. As another reviewer said, if you are a fan, you'll get this sooner or later, and I don't think that you'll totally regret it.

      4 out of 5 stars life.......2000-03-16

      I'm new to Niel Young I've basicly only heard Harvest and this title "Life" and all i can say is Wow! I've read some of the other reviews of Mr. Young's work and if the reviewers only rate this as so-so I can"t wait to experiance the rest of Mr. Youngs work.

      5 out of 5 stars Smooth New-Romantic with loads of atmosphere.......2007-01-16

      In 1980 at the height of the New Wave explosion Japan managed to secure themselves a unique foothold on the music scene. After the very interesting Metallic Reggae stylings of `Obscure Alternatives' they came out with this all ultra-smooth outing. With the beautifully played Synths of `Richard Barbieri' who acknowledged his Eno-influences and the fabulously assured & powerful bass playing of `Mick Carn', the music beyond what most bands were able to accomplish in this genre. With big nods to Roxy Music, Brian Eno & David Bowie and the distinctive vocal stylings of David Sylvian they garnered themselves a big following in the U.K. although aside from `Ghosts' from their following album they never really hit the charts in a big way. This album has a very unique sound and was pretty advanced for the time - 1980. It's fabulously well produced and starts off with the super bouncy `Quiet Life' track which has great synth playing accompanied by the catchiest chorus line on the album. After this though the mood pretty much mellows out and everything is either mid-tempo (In Vogue) or slow (All Tomorrow's Parties). However this played to their strengths in creating atmospheric soundscapes. All in all a very unique album and a good reason why some albums need to be listened to as a whole rather than distilled into some of the numerous greatest hits packages `Japan' has out there right now which lose the feeling their individual albums had. For fans of New Wave/New-Romantic or just good Electronic Music from the early 80's.
