Title : A few good music albums

1. "Departure" by Carla Werner

This is one of my friend's recommendation from his huge music vault, that initially i do not know where he get all these beautiful music from. The reviews which i read from various websites, suggesting that this
singer/songwriter, wrote lyrics that are simple, and very down-to-earth. One reviewed that the her voices are simply pleasing, which i couldnt disagree on it. Most frequently played:
  1. "Heaven Is a Word"
  2. "Wanderlust"
  3. "Under"

2. "Wreck Of The Day" by Anna Nalick


I picked up this piece of music also from my friend, and the whole album is worth listening. There is this song called "Citadel" which remains as one of my most played song in my discman, and the songs inside are simply nice. Her single, "Breathe (2 AM)" also holds a place in my heart, but less compared to "Wreck Of The Day", and maybe "Paper Bag". Most frequently played:
  1. "Breathe (2 AM)" – 4:39
  2. "Citadel" – 2:47
  3. "Paper Bag" – 3:27
  4. "Wreck of the Day" – 4:06
3. "From Nothing to One" by The Perishers

The Perishers, a Swedish indie rock band. This album doesnt have all the hard rock music, but just soft rock, and it is really soothing. The lyrics are just simple, quite down-to-earth. Very relaxing, said a review.

Most frequently played:

1. When I Wake Up Tomorrow
2. In The Blink Of An Eye
3. Someday
4. When I Fall







4. EP by Rachael Yamagata

A nice EP, picked up from Chris, and it is quite nice, and her voice is quite special, quite unique in a way. Some of my favourites would be
  1. Collide (appeared also on Steroscope by Bumpus)
  2. Known for Years
  3. Worn Me Down (EP Version)
  4. The Reason Why (EP Version)



5. "Under The Iron Sea" by Keane

Keane, a British trio, hailed from a small town called Battle. A piano rock band, which means they do not use guitar to produce rock music, but simply use piano, and some pedal effects. This is their second album, and quite nice on the overall. "Atlantic", "Is It Any Wonder", "Nothing In My Way", "Leaving So Soon", "A Bad Day" does have a place for my heart, and that i would like to play whenever i felt it. "Is It Any Wonder" talked about the recent incidents about war in Iraq and their thoughts about war.

Most frequently played:

1. "Atlantic"
2. "Is It Any Wonder"'
3. "Nothing In My Way"
4. "Leaving So Soon"
5. "A Bad Day"
6. "Hamburg Song"

6. "Hopes And Fears" by Keane

Their debut album, and a very nice album for a start. I would say that every song is pretty nice, and the overall, is that this is one good album. I may say that the every song is my favourite, but the ones that really can make me to want to sing, and become my evergreen songs, would be "Bedshaped" and "Somewhere Only We Know".

Favourite:
  1. "Somewhere Only We Know"
  2. "This Is The Last Time"
  3. "Bend And Break"
  4. "We Might As Well Be Strangers"
  5. "Everybody’s Changing"
  6. "Your Eyes Open"
  7. "She Has No Time"
  8. "Can’t Stop Now"
  9. "Sunshine"
  10. "Untitled 1"
  11. "Bedshaped"
