See You On The Moon

I've read a couple of reviews that describe this album as "brilliant". They're wrong. It's MUCH better than that.

Merritt appeals as an artist with the song writing ability of Jonie Mitchell and the singing ability of Emmy Lou Harris. This album is consistently excellent, with a couple of songs (such as the title track) that deserve to be huge hits. It's the best purchase I've made from Amazon in ages.

Too much like harpie Lucinda, not enough like chantuse Neko and no where close to earth goddess Sheryl.

Why Isn't She A First-Magnitude Star Yet?!. A previous reviewer asked this question and I couldn't agree with him more. I have been listening to Tift Merritt since her "Bramble Rose" CD. She is definitely one of the most gifted and versatile artists out there. I highly recommend going to one of her live performances.

"Mixtape", the first song on SEE YOU ON THE MOON, hooks the listener immediately. "Feel of the World" makes you stop whatever you are doing to just listen to the hauntingly beautiful lyrics. "Six More Days of Rain" deals with struggle and frustration and still manages to be uplifting.

Another outstanding CD from Tift Merritt

Tify Merritt seems to get better with each release. I loved ANOTHER COUNTRY and really didn't think that she could top it, but she has. Tift's voice is warm and comforting, and her songs speak to the vagaries of life and love as only the best songwriters are able to do. This is pop music at its best, and Tift Merritt has become one of the better singer-songwriters around.

Tift Merritt has delivered again. She is an amazing songwriter, singer and musician. I think her creativity is her strong point, and it shines through in See You on the Moon. Tift gives us something refreshing at a time when there isn't much that is refreshing in the music scene. Definitely worth downloading.
