Five for Fighting Giveaway and Review
27 Oct
This giveaway is now closed, with a winner chosen.
The One2One Network sent me a download of the brand new Five for Fighting album, Slice, which was released October 12th. Keep reading for a giveaway opportunity!
I’m a fan of Five for Fighting and John Ondrasik, so I was looking forward to hearing the new stuff.
So – what are my impressions? As a whole, very positive. Catchy stuff that kind of gets into your head and you want to sing along (an example is Slice for that.) Tuesday sort of reminds me (and this is a compliment, so if you’re like my husband, hush!) of a mixed song of Barry Manilow and Neil Diamond. It has that feel of a song that might not be that popular now, but endures for years to come. It’s just lovely. The melodies through the album really feel good. I didn’t love Above the Timberline – but I can’t quite put my finger on why. I think it has to do with the falsetto used. Transfer is such a rich song, I loved that one – I really want you to take a listen to that one. The album as a whole is one you should buy. I love it, and will add all the songs (except Above the Timberline) to my iPod.
The Giveaway! An autographed CD of Five for Fighting’s Slice! To enter, it’s very very simple. Comment here. That’s it. One per person, please - Duplicate entries will be deleted. Deadline is 11:59pm Pacific, Wednesday, November 11th. I’ll post the winner and I’ll send the winner an email (so make sure you enter with the correct one!) That person will have 24 hours to get back to me with their address or I choose a new winner. I’ll pass that info on to the One2One Network to send the winning (autographed) music your way.
