Amazing talent
Posted February 25, 2008
By thirsty,
Hearing the songs 'Shadowfeet' and 'Albertine' I was amazed by the beautiful voice of Brooke Fraser. Knowing she sings in the band Hillsong United I knew: I must get to know her own music.
On her website and myspace you can listen to the songs mentioned and also to 'Deciphering Me' and some songs of her debut album. I did that and decided to buy her album.
It was quite difficult to get it because it is (was?) only available in New Zealand/Australia. I was lucky being able to order it on a Dutch website (Bol.com).
About the album now: I really like her voice and the songs. Almost every song has a kind of climax where it works to, especially 'Albertine' and 'C.S. Lewis Song'.
You can hear Brooke's passion for music, for people and for God in her songs. As well in her voice as in the lyrics. The same goes for the musicians: you can hear their passion in the music they make.
This album is great when you want to wake up slowly or being tired after a day hard work.
Summarizing: this is a relaxed album! Great lyrics, great voice, great musicians!
Apart from all this: her story behind the title of the album and the title song of the album is great! View All Music And Book Reviews By thirsty | View thirsty's Profile
