Negative Positive
Title: Somewhat Disappointing
Review: When I bought this CD, the only song I'd ever heard Buckley sing was "Hallelujah." Naturally, I was enthralled by Buckley's incredibly expressive falsetto--he really does make that track a religious experience. What I was not prepared for was the application of that same technique to every song Buckley sang. When I first listened to this CD, I felt like his rendition of "Hallelujah" was cheapened: he hadn't adapted his voice to the demands of that particular song, but simply poured his old formula into a particularly suitable mould. I don't mean to disrespect a late legend, but Buckley's impressive voice quickly loses its luster because of his disappointing lack of versatility.
Is the review positive or negative?
