Description
Amazing though it is, the story of how Melody Gardot overcame the results of a near-fatal accident to become one of the vocal sensations of 2008 is not the much extraordinary thing concerning the 23-year-old Philadelphia singer-songwriter. It is just this here is a voice in a million; one this touches the soul.

Melody's debut album `Worrisome Heart' introduced, in The Sunday Times' words: "a remarkable talent by any measure", together with songs of quiet, wistful poetry in arrangements this "ooze afterwards-hours sophistication". Yet the follow-up, for open in April 2009, marks a substantial jump forward. `My One And Only Thrill' is an intensely creative milestone, transcending genre distinctions of jazz and blues to propose a haunting personal musical statement this will appeal to all music-lovers. As together with her acclaimed exist shows she captures and holds her audience in the palm of her hand.

These eleven songs, covering a wide range of emotions, are all her own except for an irresistible, Brazilian get on Somewhere Over The Rainbow. It would get a heart of stone to remain unmoved by the poignant title track My One And Only Thrill. And when the album is finished (as Irving Berlin wrote truly) the song is over, but the Melody lingers on . . .

Customer rating is 5 of 5  Mature, beautiful, relatable...   2010-03-12
By Jem (Riverside County, CA USA)
Mature, beautiful, relatable, etc. I can not really find the words to explain just how truly lovely I think this young artist and her music is. I purchased this CD back in November. I had not heard of her but thought that the samples on Amazon were nice. I was pleasantly surprised. I then went back online to read her short bio. and was even more impressed to learn that even after her tragic accident, she has held her head high and was still able to do what she loved to do - make music and sing. I listen to this CD everyday - on my way to work, on my way home, around the house doing chores, etc. I even got my husband listening to it from time to time. I have purchased her "Worrisome" CD as well, however, "My One and Only Thrill" is my personal favorite. Can't wait til her next album. I would recommend this CD to anyone. You will not be disappointed.

Customer rating is 2 of 5  Melody, what have you done???!!??   2010-03-09
By Daniel (Val-des-Monts, QC)
Melody Gardot's first CD (Worrisome heart) was a phenomenal achievement in restraint and intimacy. When I heard she was in the studio recording a full-length CD, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it and give it a listen.

When the wait was over, I hurriedly picked up a copy of her "My one and only thrill" CD, slipped it into my CD player, and... was appalled. Gone is the subtlety, only to be replaced by the most outlandishly cheezy strings I have heard since I stopped listening to my grandmother's music. Strings, strings, more strings, and then just to be sure you have been sufficiently smothered in strings, well, more strings. It's as if some string composer wanted to use Melody as a vehicle for promoting his/her orchestrations, and forcefully took control of the recording sessions. I haven't looked at who produced this latest recording, but I will (just to add to my "avoid" list).

Melody, Melody, what have you done? Where have you lost that minimalist approach, those intimate moments, the under-produced and under-played beauty of your first recording? I haven't given up on you, and I am hopeful that your third recording will ditch the cheezy strings and return to the intimate night club ambiance that you so well embraced before.

This CD is absolutely wonderful - could not be happier with our selection. It was in brand new condition and arrived right on time. We listen to it often and enjoy it more each time.

By Len Allen (Alton NH)
If you are already a Dianna Krol, Alicia Keys or Nora Jones fan, you will love Melody Gaudet. It's no wonder she is platinum in France and will be here too very soon.
