Amazon.co.uk Review
The odds were definitely against Natalie Imbruglia; any kind of kudos for soap stars turned popstars is pretty much non-existent within the hyper-critical world of popular music. Generally they are granted one or two hits, and soldier on for a while despite the contempt of the music press before fading into insignificance. Natalie Imbruglia is different. As well as demonstrating her genuine vocal strength, Left of The Middle actually contains some fine songs, some of which are--surprisingly enough--even co-written by the pint sized, perfect skinned Ozzie herself. Her debut album finds Imbruglia in the embryonic stages of her songwriting career, and while the lyrics are occasionally naively embarrassing ("What's up with Dad/Mom's looking sad"), flashes of genuine talent do shine through. The finished product is an astonishingly honest and at times emotional collection of songs--"Torn", "Big Mistake", "Smoke", "Wishing I Was There"--whose strength lies, in part, in the fact that there are no attempts at anything overly ambitious or experimental.--Ronita Dutta
