i love this cd it was recommended by a friend because i like lily allen and i now love kat nash
Kate Nash's 'Made of Bricks' completely captured to me. It is one of kind. This song alone will show you that Nash has serious talent as a songwriter.
Her indie pop feel is refreshing and heartfelt; lyrics read like words straight from her diary. `Pumpkin Soup' is also pretty mediocre. It is rare for me to buy multiple copies of anything, but I found myself buying two more copies of this CD to give to my sisters.
Other songs like `Mouthwash', `Birds', `The Skeleton Song', `Nicest Thing', and `Merry Happy' are similarly brilliant in their own ways.My favorite lyrics: "I wish that you loved me/ I wish that you needed me/ I wish that you knew when I said two sugars, actually I meant three"There are songs I don't care for, for example `D**khead' or `The Sh** Song' because they're simply unnecessary and lack finesse. She is incredibly personal and passionate. Her songs shift from intense words of love/adoration to bitter contempt.Nash's songs are hauntingly beautiful; my heart was immediately captured by the lyrics and style of `Mariella'.
If you are sensitive towards explicatives you may want to cherry pick certain songs from this CD, however, I would highly suggest you purchase this CD.
I had the censored version of Foundations on a mix CD from a friend and decided to check out the rest of the CD. If you like Kate, you should check out Regina Spektor. Awesome mix. Love her style. They sing quite alike. But its a great CD, and I'm very glad I bought it.
I'm no music critic but. I heard a song from this CD on Pandora and decided to buy it. I love the whole album. Clever and sometimes hilarious lyrics, catchy tunes, fun to sing along to.
Much of the rest features her distinct cockney accent (which I find charming) but in more of a folky, coffeehouse sound. I heard Kate Nash on Slacker Radio and I thought it was Lily Allen. Other than the R rating for lyrics, this is the kind of music that plays in the background at hip stores and cafes. Of course it was "Foundations" and that cut is surely the gem of the album. Nothing else is that strong or full of the fresh pop sound. Her future will depend on whether she can progress as a songwriter. A solid and snarky "Foundation" is in place.
