Corrinne May


"Gorgeously sung retrospection that chronicles a spiritual revival of mind and spirit." - The Straits Times, Singapore


I have always been a fan of Singaporean born Corrinne May Ying Foo for her voice. Well, I have her first 2 albums and although some of the lyrics in the first 2 maybe a bit errr..."cheesy", she always tends to make up for it through her voice. This is her fourth album titled Beautiful Seed. This is by far her best (and longest) album to date. Her vocals here are just short of perfect, and really, since I got the CD all the way from Singapore (thanks again Jill!), I couldn't stop listening to it. This album is entitled Beautiful Seed, because it talks about her life's journey for the past 8 years or so - her ups and downs and it also reflects on how she has matured as a singer.

Here are the track listings:
01 Love Song for #1
02 Shelter
03 On The Side Of Me
04 Five Loaves and Two Fishes
05 Beautiful Seed
06 Leaving
07 Scars (Stronger For Life)
08 City of Angels
09 My Little Nephew
10 Slow Down
11 Green-Eyed Monster
12 On My Way
13 33
14 Shelter (Cherry Blossom Edition)


I think it's quite obvious that I totally like the album. Would I recommend it?....HELL YEAH!

My rating:
5/5 (definitely worth getting the original!)
Sounds similar to: Celine Dion, Sarah McLachlin
