Review of the Vanessa Carlton CD Harmonium

Harmonium is the latest Rock CD released by the extremely talented Vanessa Carlton who once again has delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. Im confident Vanessa Carlton fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one.

Unfortunately, its not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just cant force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Harmonium. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Vanessa Carlton possesses the characteristic of being able to win you over with her talent alone. The kind of artist I frankly just flat out enjoy listening to.

Overall Harmonium is excellent from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Rock fan. Really sensational from beginning to end.

While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2 - Whats To Say, track 7 - Half A Week Before The Winter, and track 10 - She Floats

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in Stuck On REpeat] is track 1 - White Houses. Outstanding!
