MP3: Hello Saferide - Nothing like you
Happy holidays everyone. I'm going to take some time this week to take a second look at a couple of the honorable mentions from my top 10 list. First, let's revisit Hello Saferide. My first impression with this record was tainted by hype. It's not that I didn't enjoy "Introducing..." when I first heard it, I was just surprised that so many people were getting excited about a nice girl folksinger. Now that I've had more time to let Annika Norlin's copious charms sink in, I appreciate the album much, much more. It comes down to this: Annika has a lovely voice and is a good songwriter and that's enough. Even further, this is an album that will still sound just as good five or ten years down the road. It doesn't stray from convention because it doesn't need to. The classic formula still works fine.
