Synopsis

Product Description
"A More Perfect World" was created in response to letters and emails from viewers of "Dawson's Creek." After several of Mary Beth's songs were featured on the show, fans wrote in to ask if she had them available as a collection. She responded by creating a compilation of all the songs she had recorded for the show. These spare, mostly piano/vocal tracks highlight Mary Beth's soulful nature and soothing style on the grand piano. "A More Perfect World" is the perfect companion to a mellow evening or long drive. Liner note comments from the artist: "When I listen to a new album, I always seem to search out that one song that is usually somewhere near the end, the quiet song that aches with longing or loving or distance or some kind of soulfulness -- a sense of bared emotion...the one that means something. These are some of my quiet songs -- some are more spare than others -- but they each come from a really emotional place in me."

"
I was alone for the evening when this cd arrived. I opened the case in my pajamas, placed the album in my player, and sat down to listen. I was staring into space, feeling a bit depressed, and then the music started. After only a few lines, the tears started rolling.These songs are the best you will find - the smoothest vocals with the most original and powerful lyrics. They will make you smile, laugh, cry, and feel good to be alive. That sounds so cheesy, but it's just true. Good music makes you feel so many things - reminds you of high school loves and of all of the good that is in and around you.This album is my favorite from Mary Beth, although Supernatural is a very close second. You'd think that only ten songs would be a short album, but each song is so good that you really can't ask for more! Every one of these songs has something about it that makes it special and powerful. I love them all, and that is rare for me. That's what makes this album the best. There isn't one song that is out of place or bland.Guys and gals alike will enjoy this album, as will older and younger audiences. There is a timeless quality here, a sound that makes oldies sound new and new songs sound classic. Buy it!!! Whether you like rock, pop, alternative, Christian, just give this album one spin. Oh, and if you love piano, you will not be disappointed."
One of the best....

"gorgeous remakes of 'daydream believer' and 'tracks of my tears' eight other piano and violin backed ballads make this album a unique purchase. If you're partial to Jewel, Tori Amos, and Tara MacLean, you will most probably adore this album."

"Like everyone else, I was first introduced to Mary Beth's music through Dawson's Creek. This fact causes me no end of misery - I feel that someone as talented as Mary Beth should be on the best selling list simply because of the phenomenal quality of her music. Once I'd ordered A More Perfect World, I sat around for 16 agonising days waiting for it to arrive. The minute it arrived I tore open the box and couldn't wait for the drive home from work so I could begin to play it. Whilst the song Daydream Believer has received the most publicity of any song on this album, it was the hauntingly beautiful Souvenirs and Waiting for a Sign which captivated me most. Mary Beth seems to take emotions and thoughts we all experience and create lyrics which are sometimes wistful, sometimes hopeful but always chillingly accurate. Her fabulous voice coupled with her simple but beautiful piano accompaniment means that her songs always strike a chord within me.Mary Beth says that these songs are her "spare songs", the ones that show her heart on her sleeve more than most. Perhaps thats what I like best about this album. In any case, this is sure to be one of my favourite CD's of all time. I only wish there wasn't several continents between where I live and where Mary Beth performs so that I might see her play live."
