Hello, Hello, Hello


So me again, sorry i no im rubbish at this whole keeping things up to date.
So this week whilst i have had some time on my hands i have been religiously listening to Kate Voegele's new album- A Fine Mess, and what can i say this album is pure genius, i love how she gives up the poppy piano and brings out the guitar giving the album a more gritty pop feel to it, very disco grunge :-).
To think how far this girl has come in such a short amount of time, from myspace to playing Mia Catalano in The CW's One Tree Hill.
My favourite track on this album is Manhattan In The Sky and although it is a piano ballad it is a beautifully written song.
You can just paint a picture in your head of what Kate is singing about especially the chorus when she sings.
"You are my Manhattan from the sky, You look so neat and tidy when I’m way up high, But I know your streets are lined with a fine mess inside
And I wanna come down and walk around your mind."
The lyrics seem to come across as her comparing her feelings for someone to looking down at the skycrapers of Manhattan give us an interesting insight into her feelings.

In summary if your looking for something not quirky but different Kate should tick all those boxes, you could compare her to the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Marie Digby and Michelle Branch.
But i personally believe she is like them and more, she has a unique quality that shines out from the rest, and i dont believe she is done with her music creativity just yet and we will see a lot more from her.
