Product Description

CD Description

Amy Grant's first full-fledged secular album since 1997's BEHIND THE EYES is a masterful amalgam of contemporary country/pop with her Christian sensibility, which underpins most of the material here. In songs such as "Out in the Open" and "Beautiful", SIMPLE THINGS is both a celebration of Grant's new life with her husband Vince Gill and an affirmation of the power of forgiveness.
Her 9/11 song, "I Don't Know Why", is a world away from some of the more unsubtle efforts ofher contemporaries, with its "All I know is love" refrain, while "Touch" with its insistent guitar loop is a sensual delight. The folksy simplicity of "Innocence Lost" belies the complex emotions lurking beneath its surface--here it's obvious that Grant's faith is very much part of her life, which sometimes costs her dear. SIMPLE THINGS is the sound of one woman trying to reconcile her spirituality with her life, and reaching some kind of understanding with herself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, 12 Jan 2004
By Mrs. D. Lee (Newtownards Co Down) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a lovely album from Amy which is both feel good and thought-provoking. Definitely one to listen to while relaxing in the evening. This album starts out quite mainstream with catchy tracks such as 'Happy' and the title song 'Simple things'. It gradually moves on though to songs like the haunting melody of 'Innocence lost' and the poignant 'After the fire'.

My only criticism is the album is a bit short, containing only 10 tracks. However quality is better than quantity, and in my opinion all her fans will love it!
