Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
With Be Not Nobody, her much-anticipated debut, ex-ballerina Vanessa Carlton more than makes good on the promise of her first single, "A Thousand Miles". Augmenting her classical training with a broad range of pop she soaked up playing New York City clubs, and listening to classic rock in her father's car, Be Not Nobody finds the phenomenon decorating her fierce piano playing with orchestration, guitars and percussion galore. "Prince" is sizzling and funky, while "Ordinary Day" displays a majestic grace and "Unsung" is a stomping blues-bar breakdown. Comparisons to Fiona Apple and Little Earthquakes-era Tori Amos (especially on the haunting "Sway" and "Wanted") are inevitable and justified. Yet Carlton sounds fresh, even on a menacing interpretation of the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black". With the exception of the anaemic ballad "Pretty Baby", this impressive debut makes a strong case that a new star has emerged. --Annie Zaleski
