K's Choice Album: “Paradise In Me”

I bought this CD just two days ago. I had downloaded Not an Addict and, just like everyone else, had listened to it on repeat nonstop, especially in winter. I finally went and bought the actual album and I am so happy that I did. Paradise in Me is a surprisingly eclectic album...though often the melodies and the lyrics linger around the same notes and ideas, the final product of each song is intricately unique.

My favorite song on the album is My Record Company. I am surprised that no one else seems to like it so much. But all in all, each song is absolutely beautiful. Sarah's lullying vocals are accented beautifully now and then by her brother's voice. It's a frickin masterpiece, my friends. It is the perfect album for winter.

In Dallas, Texas years ago, a new song suddenly flooded the radio waves. It was Not An Addict, and we all became adddicted to the sounds of K's Choice! My mother accuses them of being monotone and boring, but all I could say was that I heard the message in the song, and the feeling put into the music behind those words. I liked the album overall, but the only song I truly care to hear is Not An Addict. It all came back to me the other day when I heard it on the television, playing over a heroin addiction anti- drug advertisement in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I think the song has been put to good use, not to mention it's easy to sing for those of us who can't.

Having been introduced to K's Choice via hearing "Virgin State of Mind" my first run through this album was a little disappointing. After a couple more hearings my view of this album has changed and it is firmly cemented in our near my cd changer.

Apart from "Not an Addict" the album lacks another obvious lead track but the overall quality of the songs mean that the skip button is virtually redundant as long as this cd is playing, which is rare in albums nowadays.

What makes this record and band stand out is the quality of the vocals. Whatever your music taste they are worth listening to.

This is one of those records you can pop in and listen to straight through, even after hundreds of times and years later. The title track is among my favorites, but all of them are good enough to make the album a catch.

This is about the third time. I replaced this CD, because my X girlfriends kept getting off with it. I'll replace it again if I have to.
