Search - Irene Grandi :: Verderossoeblu - Sanremo 2000

Giving justice to the name "Grandi"

"What a stunning surprise! Irene Grandi is quite comparable to Carmen Consoli; however, she spans further in different directions. With the help of the undeniable Vasco Rossi on Sanremo's "La tua regazza sempre" and collaboration with Sheryl Crow on "Limbo," Grandi belts out some memorable songs. Her voice is distinctive and creative and most definitely memorable. "Eccezionale" will have you singing its corus on a regular basis and "Sto peggiorando," with its Jovanotti-ish hook, is definitely worth repeating a couple times in a row. This album will attack your senses in every way possible."

Good CD

"Hard, edgy vocals. Nice variety of tracks between rock and ballads. Good example of Italian pop music."

Fantastico!

"Having been turned on to Irene by Italian friends back in the first album era, she has maintained my interest by releasing increasingly strong material. I don't speak Italian (or any language other than English for that matter!) but she has an incredibly sexy voice, and the songs are very melodic, enabling even I to sing along to! This album is perhaps more 'guitar' orientated than her previous albums but her vocals accompany the instrument so well! It is difficult to decide which album is best! All are fantastic but this is slightly more edgy. As for the lyrical content - I have absolutley no idea!"
