Katie Melua's Call off the Search: No guts, no glory - Page 2

Aside from that it's a "good" album. It's the kind of thing you'll like if you like this kind of thing and I hear potential in her voice. It's easy enough on the ears, but it doesn't command attention. There's no compelling factor musicially or lyrically that would make you annoyed at your tablemates at the bar for talking. That's too bad.

Maybe the next one will be stronger. Maybe it won't be such a safety play. I'd prefer that. This is good, but good isn't good enough. If you're looking for pop/jazz, try Buddhacrush. Tim's vocals are raspier, but they fit the songs he writes.
