neolog A Good Cover Album 4

Ringo really stretches herself on this album, covering songs from all sorts of genres, and in several different languages. Everything from rock and roll to Motown R&B to classical music to French standards are on this record, and Ringo puts her personal stamp on them all.

There are two discs, one for each arranger Ringo worked with. One disc has the harsher, more rock and roll songs, and the other is a bit poppier and more intricately arranged. The rock disc's highlight is probably the cover of The Beatles' "Yer Blues," and the other disc's highlight is either the cover of the Carpenter's "I Won't Last a Day Without You" (a duet with Utada Hikaru) or Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell's "The Onion Song" (a duet with Ringo's brother, Shiina Junpei).

That being said, it's not the best Ringo Shiina album you can buy, simply because she's not singing her own songs. Cover albums are usually a marketing stunt or something an artist does to mark time between albums, but Ringo nonetheless ends up with an outstanding album here.

no debate, clear win.. 5

Emotionally for some fans this must be one of the most urgent releases of Shiina Ringo, this is like an inside biography of hers to all of his fans, atmospheric feelings flow trough these two discs to the end. And truely Shiina' does sound like younger Edith Piaf in her nostalgic cover take of autumn leaves, no doubt this is gold! a true gem by one of the most uniquest artist of Japan.

A must-have for all fans... 5

Shiina Ringo's "Utaite Miyouri" is a gem of a CD. She has wonderful voice and sings not only in Japanese, but also French, English and even Portuguese, to my surprise!

Her choice of a Brazilian song is "Manha de Carnaval", an old Vinicius de Moraes' song from the classic Brazilian movie "Orfeu Negro". Her accent here is cute, but far from perfect though. But who cares, her version of that classic is just unique and her accent just adds to the enchantment.

I love her singing in French, here the accent is just perfect. She sings "Feuilles Mortes", alternating between French and English, and it is such an original, almost funky version. She sounds like a younger Edith Piaf, truth to be told! Just beautiful.

Well, this lady simply rocks. The arrangements are superb, needless to say, and the album presentation is amazing, as only in Japan we can find. Perfect, 5 stars all along!
