"Michelangelo" didn't work very well for me. It's a great song, though, if one disregards the message, or doesn't mind it. Right to kick down the door." I suppose it all comes down to taste, but the sentiment does seem to me to be asking for trouble in the long run. chemistry is not polite, I'm waiting for my Mr. The lyrics do remind me of a question I have: why do many women seem to prefer a pushy guy to a considerate one? In this song, the singer rejects men who bring her flowers and demonstrate thoughtfulness, holding out for "more: one who kicks down the door, and lets himself in. The last song on the CD, "Kick Down The Door," is a fast and lively song with a great tune and beat. "Thrilled" describes yet another boring evening in the life of a single woman it would have been improved by a bit more humor, I think, but I'm not really the target audience for it. "A New Pair of Shoes" is what this woman knows will comfort her when her love has left it's both funny and touching. "Closets" is a cry from the heart of a woman who is refusing to wait around in case the man for whom she's second best can't find anyone closer to his ideal. Single life has its own set of headaches. Both "Fallin'" and "Tap Dancing On The Highwire" celebrate the wonders of happy and heartfelt romance. The thrills and beauty of a new love are also themes. Middleman's voice, the lyrics, the melody, and the accompaniment work together seamlessly in this mourning of an ended love. "There Ain't No Good In Goodbye" is a standout. In "What Are You Gonna Do" a woman challenges her partner to act to improve the relationship and not leave it all to her this song also has some interesting rhythms and instrumental accompaniment. "No Place Like Home," released as a single, is sung by a woman leaving her unsatisfying relationship for ".someplace that's no place like home." "Rain On a River" might have been her song before she decided to leave in it, she compares her lack of feeling for the man she's currently with, to her passion for a new man in her life. Still, troubled relationships are a common theme, in country and on this CD. "Someone Who Loves You" is a beautiful song celebrating an established relationship, in which one person is reassuring the other that he's not going anywhere. One of the things I like the best about country music is that on the whole, it includes more songs focused on life as an adult than pop does while pop's focus on life for teens and twenties can be fun for those of us who are older, at times I like to hear songs that more accurately reflect my own current life stages and concerns. Middleman wrote or co-wrote half of the twelve songs on this CD, and the rest complement these well in sound and theme.Īll the songs focus on relationships: beginning, continuing, struggling and ending. It's firmly in the current style of country, with definite pop elements but an overall country sound. Endless Possibilities is the first album from country singer Georgia Middleman.
