Title: One hit wonders
Review: I heard one track ("Don't Invent Me") from this CD on a National Public Radio program and initially thought Mandalay was a great discovery. The music was atmospheric and transforming. The lyrics were unintelligible, perhaps intentionally, but it didn't seem to matter. As with many other recordings, I thought the stirring of one's imagination was more important, how it made you feel . . . probably stunning as part of a film soundtrack.Then I received the CD in the mail. The other 13 tracks turned out to be tedious dreck. Perhaps with the volume turned down, it might work as elevator music, where you'd only hear a few moments at a time. What a waste of money! My CD goes free to the first elevator management company out there.
Is the review positive or negative?
