coffee break

i have a renewed love with lisa stansfield. i grew up listening to her during my high school and early college days before the sudden shift in music trend to grunge. i like the tone in her voice and her brand of music; reminds me of a warm, lazy sunday morning, with of steaming hot coffee and  croissant with cream cheese. i like music that i can sing with, breezy and cool and totally takes me to another place. i would classify her music as the type i would play on a long drive or by the beach with a good book.

i first got hooked with her after listening to the affection album, all around the world. i don’t know why but until now i love this song. the beat is just perfect and easy on the ears, it doesn’t lull me to sleep but doesn’t make me jump around and start shaking my ass. the lyrics is just as inspiring as she sings it with a hint of jazz. but my favorite of all her album that i have (i have her first 4) is the lisa stansfield. her music has matured and she just glow. my favorite cuts in this album are never, never gonna give you up and real thing. may sound cheesy but i like how the songs talk about love and and not letting it go. though most of her sound is about love, but these 2 combined with infectious melody and good lyrics stood out.

i miss the old times when they release 4-8 singles per album as oppose to today’s 3 singles per album.
