Stay out of Australia, 1 May 2004
As someone who had adopted Australia as my "home", I feel that, when it comes to musical terrain, Olivia should stay away from Australia as far as possible.
Did anyone see that Australian clip she did for her GAIA album in the mid-90s? Everything was wrong in it, her looks, her clothes, and most of all the songs. I'd say I'm a big fan but I didn't get GAIA until last year. Same with "2" - I smelled a rat ages ago, and I only bought it cheap while in Japan.
Olivia still has a great voice and she's a fantastic vocalist. However, this second rate collection of artists and even worse, second rate songs, is not doing her any good.
I'd rather see her like Bette Midler doing Rosemary Clooney songs, or like Agnetha doing 60s classics than this rubbish. Olivia, please get a decent producer elsewhere!
