Pieces - Juicy Lucy

Advantages: If you love ballads and relaxed it's one
Disadvantages: Can't think of any

...would chose as a Bond theme, which gives Lucie a range of her vocal talent. "Last Man Standing" is a piece of pop / soul, while "Forget me not" is a gentle, piano ballad. After the stillness of the proceeding song, the up-tempo soft rock of the delightful title track provides a welcome contrast, before a wonderful orchestra and solo cello introduction leads into the soaring ballad "Nothing Else Matters". "Without You" is an again pop / soul, but possibly a memory of Judie Tzuke, with some lovely solo guitar from Kearns. Lucie's sister Mia assists with the backing vocals throughout, and is featured on this track.

Advantages: Beautiful songs, beautiful voice, brilliant debut album
Disadvantages: A little samey towards the end!

...Lucie Silvas was dropped by her record label a few years ago and they hadn't even let her release anything... BIG MISTAKE! From out of nowhere with the smash 'What You're Made Of' Lucie serenely arrived onto the music scene with a stunning voice song and album... heres why you should get her album, track buy track!! Don't Look Back - a stunning energetic yet soothing opener to the album. A song all about leaving the past behind and moving on, she should release this without question. The Game Is Won - Very piano led and a tune that Elton John would be proud to have written. This song features mainly Lucie and a piano with soft background beats. Last Man Standing - slowing the pace right down Lucie concentrates not on lavish orchestral pieces or some poppy beats but just the basics her and her piano. Not single potential... Read review

Advantages: Box Fresh Hits!
Disadvantages: None

...Lucie's debut album Breathe In is a fine collection of hits. You will find yourself hooked on Lucie's stunning voice. The album contains upbeat songs such as 'Breathe In' and beautiful ballard like 'Forget Me Not' and 'The Game Is Won'. There is also a cover version of Metallica's 'Nothing Else Matters' which is part of Lucie's musical influence. This album is heavily inspired by Soul and Motown and it is just wonderful. Most tracks contain a lot of stringed instuments which give the tracks depth and are just inspiring to listen to. Lucie has been dubbed as the British Christina Aguilera... she has a very powerful voice and range. There are tracks on this album that everyone can relate to. Its a true gem! Lucie is also a great artist to see live and is destined for big things.... Read review
