Natalie Imbruglia

Come to Life
$17.98
Although I feel this album falls short in some areas (For instance, There only being 10 songs) I went ahead and gave her the four stars anyway. "It seems like this album took FOREVER to come out!!!" Natalie Imbruglia is one of the very few artists that I like that has not conformed to the sound of Hip-Hop to sale records, She's stayed true to her sound while experimenting within her realm and adding excitment.

"WTUF" "Scars" "Twenty" "Lukas" & "Cameo" are all my favorites so far. Surprisingly "Cameo" is my favorite of my favorites, It's really HOT with a DRAMATIC electro beat. It's not the sound that Natalie's most known for but strikes me. It reminds me of the Pop-Electrik sound that most female popstars in the UK were going for between 2003-2006 (Rachel Stevens, Holly Valance, Dannii Minogue, Maria Serneholt) to name a few, It's definitely a standout with its big sound and breaks of complete silence.

"WTUF" is a really wacky song, It's very "Busy" hyperactive, energetic and all-over-the-place (Which is a really good thing) "Lukas" has that signiture 80's pop/rock arrangment. "Sanctuary" from 2005's "Counting Down The Days" wouldn't be out of place on "Come To Life".

Lyrically the songs are all their very own. Another song that I didn't mention is "Want" which is also the 2nd single, I like the sound but it's really predictable and has been done repeatedly. I have many songs in my music collection that sound exactly like it. It's typical Pop/Dance, However I feel some growth with it.

As usual Natalie has not gone against the grain which in my opinion shines a light on her since "going against the grain" is the NEW trend. I'm okay with "Come To Life", How can I be bitter?.

Counting Down the Days

The album itself could have been a bit smoother but all in all much better than her 2nd album (White Lilies Island); and it's got a better bland of rhythm on it.

That said, I think Natalie should have took the chance in getting it promoted over the sea to the U.S; like she did her on her previous albums. She seemed to have turned her back on her fan club (I'm not included) which is the wrong way to go, if you really want people to take you seriously; and someone needs to tell Natalie Jane Imbruglia, that it's more to America than just the sunny coast of Los Angeles California and the tall towers of New York City. She should have taken her first tour in the U.S based on the success of her first album.

So as for Nat, she's more of a "what if" person. We won't really know how good she could have done if she would have tried a bit harder and, didn't take her fans in America for granted.

Some of the best songs of the album is: Starting Today,Shiver and Perfectly.

Superb range and beauty to the music. Natalie puts so much into this album. Lyrics are exquisite. Overflows with creativity and heart. A work of art.
