Negative Positive
Title: Similar to "A Thousand Miles", only less catchy
Review: Vanessa Carlton has emerged as a pop star aiming to take some of the singer/songwriter intelligence and expression to the masses.However, one cannot say that her first single managed to achieve this: it was not good even for pop, being utterly tuneless, oddly emotionless and saved only in a very minor way by a few hooks. "Ordinary Day" lacks even that small redeeming feature and one cannot recommend it by any means at all.There is still less of the piano present in the featureless, heavily synthesised, wishy-washy melody of the song, and none of the feminine expressiveness that so many have overlooked whenever it occurs within the world of popular music.Not recommended: look elsewhere for female artists with intense mystery and emotional power.
