Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0828766399929 Format: Import Label: Sony Bmg Europe Manufacturer: Sony Bmg Europe Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Sony Bmg Europe Release Date: October 18, 2004 Studio: Sony Bmg Europe Editorial Review: Album Description: International edition of her debut album features 11-tracks, including a bonus hidden 12th track, 'Sojourn'. This import pressing also features two tracks that were dropped from the 2005 US version, 'I'm a Bomb' and 'Frogs and Princess'. In addition the import pressing features the two original versions of 'These Words' and 'Unwritten' which were remixed for the US version and thus exclusive to this pressing. The import version also features different artwork. 22-year-old Natasha Bedingfield (younger sister of Daniel Bedingfield) has a voice to melt radios & a decade long passion for writing & singing. Her debut album Unwritten draws on a range of experiences & passions personal to her - from battling through the dating game ('Frogs & Princes'), & dealing with the trust issues of falling in love ('I Bruise Easily') to learning how to carpe diem ('If You're Gonna Jump') & develop the confidence to take life & own it ('Unwritten'). Told from the viewpoint of a young woman with her head firmly screwed on, Unwritten is fuelled by lyrical sass & real-life suss throughout. Musically the album is inspired by a wide range of influences & styles, from the glam rock of 'Silent Movie' through the muscular funk of 'Single' to the orchestral majesty of 'Wild Horses'. The result is an album packed with winning songs & no irrelevant fillers. BMG. 2004. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Cute as can be.............and she can actually sing. And you can understand the words. And that's OK, because they're all clean. This album is the pop debut of English Gospel star Natasha Bedingfield, and is the British import version of another album of the same name. They are NOT identical. Eight of the eleven songs are the same. But in addition to being "Single", "Mad", and "Unwritten", here she's a "Bomb", and is worried about "Frogs and Princes". There's a different version of "Drop Me In The Middle", which I must ... Read More Rating:  - Great but not stellarI bought this album ages ago, when it first came out in NZ. Back then, I LOVED it. If I'd written this review then, it would look a lot different. I probably would have given it 5 stars. But time has passed, and today I give this album 3 stars. Why? Because a lot of the songs haven't held up over time. I know it hasn't been that long, but it feels like it. I will just say, I don't like Natasha's ballads. Her fast songs are awesome... her ballads? Not so much. In fact, on this ... Read More Rating: - enjoyable debutFrom Ms. Bedingfield. Had already heard "These Words" and "Unwritten" before buying this. It did take awhile longer before i actually purchased the cd. There were only a couple of songs that i didnt really enjoy "Frogs & Princes" and "If You're Gonna". I just didnt really get into them like i did on other songs. I enjoyed "I Bruise Easily" (always have enjoyed ballads and this no exception), "These Words", "Single" (liked that a lot as well the beat and theme behind the song make it good), ... Read More Rating: - Great song, no hyper-bole. . . ."These Words" IS a great single with a moving beat and aspirant lyrics...but the mispronunciation of the word "hyperbole" is pretty cringe-worthy. Invoking Keats and all those guys, she gets props for trying to sound erudite while laying down a nice dance beat. Rating: - Wild Horses - Impressive Ballad!I was drawn to Natasha's album from the lead song - These Words. However, I felt three tracks were worthy of stand out performance: power ballads - Wild Horses and I Bruise Easily and gospel feel - Unwritten. This is an excellent album and scores a perfect 5! |
