Hello!Ok... so I hear/see "Put Your Records On" on VH1... and then I see the album for sale at Starbucks...So why couldn't I figure out that this cd would most likely be BAAAAAAAD?Well, for starters, "Put Your Records On" is a great song, I like it. I like the lyrics, which are mildly inspirational for little girls with a tinge of afrocentricity... I like her voice, a pretty good range, sweet, strong, unique... I like the music, the little acoustic guitar parts, the beat, etc.Guess what? That is the ONLY song that reflects the above good qualities. And what else do I find out? Well, Rae didn't even write that song BY HERSELF, she had help! And she did with the ENTIRE album, sans ONE song, one song that I don't even enjoy... On just about every song other than "P.Y.R.O." she sings about love and relationships and just has this outdated overused 1990's soul (or what radio stations would call r&b) feel.Isn't that SAD??? I'm SO SAD now. I really thought I might've found a jewel. Well, I did, but it's not Corinne Bailey Rae, it's "Put Your Records On."Hmm... maybe it's time to go get some Amoeba credit back on my purchase now that I've ripped the CD to iTunes.Thank You.
