Call off the Search

Piece by Piece Piece by Piece--the second album from Georgia-born-chanteuse-cum-naturalised-Brit Katie Melua, and the successor to her multimillion-selling Call Off the Search--begins teasingly with the soft-pedaled "come hither" jazz flirtations of "Shy Boy" and concludes with the whispering p...	I Cried for You/Just Like Heaven Features a cover version of The Cure's Just Like Heaven	The Closest Thing to Crazy	Not Too Late Although the music of Norah Jones continues to blend pop, soul, folk, and country with a seasoning of jazz, her third album for Blue Note is the first where she's written (or collaborated on) all the material. Beneath the smooth surface lie darker strains on the album-opening "...	Crawling Up a Hill Taken from the singer/songwriter's critically acclaimed 2003 debut album 'Call Off the Search'. The title track is b/w two non-LP tracks, 'Crawling Up A Hill' (Live) & 'Jack's Room'. Dramatico. 2004.
Piece by Piece Special deluxe two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) edition of her sophomore album features three additional audio tracks ('Sometimes When I'm Dreaming', an acoustic version of 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds' and the 2006 single 'It's Only Pain') plus a 19 track DVD featuring three p...	Half the Perfect World Smokey-voiced chanteuse Madeleine Peyroux's third CD is a lovely collection of after-hours ruminations and should confirm her rise to fame. Credit producer Larry Klein for doing a bang-up job with the album's sound: the elegant, pared-down arrangements are all brushed drums, acou...	The Closest Thing to Crazy Taken from the 2003 album 'Call Off The Search'. The title track is backed with 'Downstairs To The Sun' & 'Thank You, Stars'. Melua's laid-back bluesy pop has been compared to Norah Jones & Eva Cassidy. Dramatic.	Feels Like Home Norah Jones blew everybody away with her jazzy, country-tinged, Grammy-winning debut CD, Come Away with Me. On this recording, Jones doesn't mess with her trademark formula.

Songbird Songbird cherry-picks tracks from the three locally released albums of Eva Cassidy, whose hauntingly beautiful vocals went virtually unheard outside her native Washington, D.C., during her short 33 years with us.

katie
best young female artist around at the moment - great voice and great storytelling songs love with a bit of humor and great play on words

Her voice has heart and she's a charming performer
I sometimes laugh at how some of the reviewers take themselves so seriously. I enjoy vocalists regardless of genre and I think Katie has the makings of a promising career. The soulfullness of her songs keep you intrigued and while her styling is somewhat poppy, it has some originality to it. I can understand why some may not prefer her voice or don't think she compares well to other great female vocalists, but some of the rantings of her being talentless or having a terrible voice invalidate the authors' opinions. These extreme views are certainly questionable.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
one of the most beautiful voices in the world, and will ever be. a classic.

best listening on a rainy, cold, dark day
i accidently bumped into this british singer. Her song of "ninety million bicycle" is just refreshing right down to the the song title. she is definately one of her own kind.

Phenomenal voice!!!
Katie Melua has a very unique and beautiful voice. I only found out about her, because of James Blunt, who is another newcomer with wonderful voice and great music. I recently got Katie's CD, and I just love how easy and comfortable she sings. Not forced at all. She's in the same gendre as Norah Jones, but I think Katie has a better voice and sound. My favorites so far in this cd, after listening twice are "The Closest thing to Crazy" & "My Aphrodisiac is you." I'm definitely buying her other CD, "Piece by Piece." I'm very satisfied with this CD, and I'm hoping to see her live performance.
