hauntingly beautiful
author: Mary Shepardthe crystalline vocals, eloquently simple arrangements and evocative songwriting all come together beautifully in this hauntingly sad CD. It's gorgeous, and I recommend it even if you aren't mourning a lost love.
awesome cd, very meloncholy
author: LindsayThis music is very sad, indeed for the unconsolable. Not going into personal detail, during a troubling time in my life, this music is beautiful and mellow.
