Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Tracy Chapman's seventh studio album, Where You Live, is not only a reflection of the issues concerning her own domicile but of the wider tribalist rancourings--class, race, religion and the economic divide--which fracture human accord. She's no ribbons and bows girl. Her spiritual (at least in a humanist sense) folk muse has often appeared hostile to window-dressing and affection (didn't Boyzone really miss the point by a mile with "Baby Can I Hold You"?) and the naked but steely-resolved material on "Where I Live" requires a commitment from the listener to eek out the essence.

There's the terrifying personal assault tale of "3000 Miles" ("Soft skin against the cold concrete...i'll die here soon if i don't leave") and on a less individual footing the disgusted, martial-booted "America", like some nightmarish resurrection of Bob Dylan's "115th Dream" for the neo-conservative generation. Equally blessed are "Change" (surely Chapman's most mainstream-friendly venture since "Fast Car") and the ruefully blue "Don't Dwell", a timid unsentimental shiver of a warmer past. --Kevin Maidment



Product Description

For nearly two decades, Tracy Chapman has been a truly individual voice on the modern musical landscape, charting and artistic path that owes nothing to trend and fashion, and everything to personal spirit, intelligence, and integrity. An eloquent teller of stories that are at once deeply intimate and yet speak to universal human concerns and a wider social conscience, Chapman has created a body of work that has been as consistently compelling as it is honest and uncompromising.

5.0 out of 5 stars So Polished, 19 Sep 2005
This album is so smooth and cultured and I think is one of Tracy's best for years. Effortless vocals, calming tunes and poetic lyrics harking back to her debut. 'Talk To You' is my stand-out track of the moment and just how poignant and true is 'America'?

5.0 out of 5 stars Another page of social realism from Tracy, 15 Sep 2005
By Mr K Alpha "Read Chomsky." (Sheffield, England) - See all my reviews
"If you knew that you would die today; saw the face of God and Love; would you change?"

Thus begins, 'Change', the opening song from the album 'Where You Live' by Tracy Chapman. If you're a Chapman fan, those opening moments already have you hooked.

But this time you go on a journey filled with lyrics which are attentive in their social realism but somehow never prescriptive. There's no crude moralism here (like in her early work), and it's refreshing. It's a decription of the world today and its problems without ever feigning answers.

Compared to her early work, her vocals are also more refined. The album has a number of stand out songs, perhaps not as many as on 'Telling Stories', but the ratio of brilliance to mediocrity is still higher than any of her peers.

I have the album on repeat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, 16 Jan 2006
By A Customer
This albums most haunting and thought provoking lyrics are in 3,000 miles which I believe is the best composition on this album. All tracks have a great meaning that you can take to heart and adapt to suit your mood. I'm glad to have invested in this album and recommend it to other Tracy Chapman 'fans'.
