Brand New Sting Review ofBrand New Day [ECD] - Stingby

Advantages: Interesting departure from usual format Disadvantages: none
...Brand New day is a bit of a departure for Sting as he experiments with a whole host of different styles and buzzing harmonies. Jazz, rock, tribal and even western tunes al blended with a unique style that makes this album a winner.
I was particularly surprised and please to find that he has used Katherine Tickell on Northumbrian pipes and fiddle and a number of new unknown artistes on the ensemble of vocal styles.
The title track ‘Brand New Day’ wasn’t the track that sold the album, I think it was ‘Desert Rose’ which comes through with vocals that sound a mixture of ethnic and tribal but work to tremendous effect and have you bouncing along with the rhythm.
There is something for everyone on this album, Sting fans will take to it immediately....

Advantages: Every song is different! Disadvantages: Some songs are much longer than others.
...I was first introduced to Weird Al's songs through the collection that my dad had lent me, quite some time ago. The songs were actually really different from what I had heard in the past, and really entertaining.
The actual contents of the CD range from titles like The Weird Al Show Theme to Your Horoscope For Today, and literally each and every song is completely unique and absolutely wonderful to hear.
The cover booklet is also really neat, which you'll get to see if you get the CD. It's got a picture of Al running around a track with these giant scissors.
These songs really add to my collection of songs on my computer, and of the nearly 5000 songs I have on there, these have got to be one of my favorites. I would definitely recommend this CD to fans of Weird Al's music....

Advantages: Excellent stress relief Disadvantages: Too high for most people to sing along to properly!
...Having heard a few of his songs in the recent past (Tired of Being Alone - covered by Texas and Let's Stay Together - featured in the magnificent Pulp Fiction) and the inclusion of a few tasty snippets in a few episodes of Ally McBeale, I was propelled into buying this fab CD.
It has a blend of upbeat, dancy numbers and some toe-tapping ballads, but there's a part in most of the songs on this album that I just have to close my eyes to! And I don't consider myself to be an avid fan. This is my only Al Green album, but I definitely wouldn't rule out buying another!...
