Mind Body And Soul - Joss Stone > Reviews

Advantages: Five good tracks.
Disadvantages: Ten mediocre or weak tracks.

Mind, Body & Soul is Joss Stone's 2nd album. From reading a little about this album she apparently saw it more as 'hers' than the first album 'Soul sessions'. This is evident in the lyrics of the first song 'Right to be wrong' where she sings "I've got a right to be wrong, my mistakes will make me strong", and goes on to change that second line in one verse with "Gotta sing my own song". This is altogether a rather more mature offering than her ... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic lyrically and musically
Disadvantages: May seem abit sameish to some

''Mind, Body & Soul'' is the second album for the sixteen year old, accomplaished soul singer, Joss Stone. Her first album ''The Soul Sessions'' become a best seller without much promotion. ''The Soul Sessions'' ironically was orignally intended to be a promotional recording which would be used to promote a second and more original album ''Mind, Body & Soul''. But somehow after word spread over the talent and complexity and the fulfillment of soul ... Read review

Advantages: Vocally superb, a really good mix of songs
Disadvantages: None really, just a few fillers

...factor or longevity in the mind as the rest of the album. But hopefully like 'Sleep Like A Child' they will grow on me and in time i'll be humming away. Theres only one song I truely dislike and thats 'Jet Lag' it makes me feel like I have it! Its quite dull and doesnt go anywhere and would have been unnoticed if never put on the album but there are some gems on here. For more info read on... Right To Be Wrong - I love this and as an opener ... Read review

Advantages: powerful and inspiring
Disadvantages: a little repetitive in some places

...decided to buy her album, mind body and soul. It has been one of the best albums i have spent my money on. I really feel I can relate to the lyrics, you can feel the passion in her voice. This album has a feel good, strong attitude to it, a real treat to listen to. The backing music is top class, Joss's voice and the instrumentals really compliment each other, they harmonise extremly well. The only things i found which i didnt like about ... Read review

Advantages: Incredible voice and nice variations on music
Disadvantages: Voice (some people don't like it)

The first single released off this second album is not a true reflection of the type of sound the album is. 'You had me' has a very hard hitting and dance feel to it. I believe that there are three elements to this album and the first is her voice. I think that her voice has maintained that same soulful style from her first album. The next element is the lyrics and the point about this is that the lyrics seem to be more expressive as in that they ... Read review

This album shows that the artist has true talent. It's a very easy listening and chilled out cd, nice to relax to with a glass of wine,when you have had a stressful day at work. This is definetly a womens cd. It shows the talent that the younger generation has with her being at such a young age when she created this album. Overall i would class this one of the best cd's that i own. One of my favourite tracks is number 3 called "you had me" its shows a strong women and i think you would agree that most women would be able to relate to it. Mind, body and soul is what this album definetly takes over when you listen to it. That is why i think that this album deserves a 5 star rating. I can confidently say that this album doesn't contain any disadvantages!

Advantages: She's achieved a lot given her age.
Disadvantages: Oh, just read the review.

Joss Stone. Here we receive yet another lady with yet another 'fresh' sound. I'm sorry but sceptical as this sounds, I fail to see how anyone could call her irritating voice that can only be described in that manner as 'fresh'! I'll admit, it's been a while since we have had a bit of soul on the scene but did Alicia Keyes not bring something new and truly soulful to the game? I will deny no-one talent and here is a girl who oozes somg-writing talent ... Read review

Advantages: sing your heart out!!
Disadvantages: Are there any?!

Joss stone now 17, started out in music industry at 16, went from her native Devon to the states and was signed straight away. This is her second album and unlike the first almost all of the tracks are co -written by joss herself. I actually wasnt a fan of the first album The soul Sessions but i recognised she had an amazing, unique voice and at such a young age. 1)Right to be wrong For anyone who has made mistakes these words make alot of sense, ...
