Talented young singer trapped in pedestrian productions
by redtunictroll Earth, USA
Reviewed on February 1st, 2000
Given that this is marketed by MCA's Nashville division, one might assume that this was a country music CD. But even by today's loose radio standard of "country," there's little country music or spirit to be found here. For the most part this is slick, middle-of-the-road pop.Elliott is quite a talent, with a surprisingly mature voice, but the material she's chosen to sing is either beyond her years (e.g., Matraca Berg's "Some People Fall, Some People Fly") or the sort of highly-charged teen anthems (e.g., "I'm Waiting For You") that can be found up and down the dial. Unlike earlier teen queens, Elliott's great talent has not yet found a sympathetic, innovative home. The production and playing are the sort of mechanial reproductions that are now endemic to Nashville "product." And though her voice is able to play along nicely, the end result isn't particularly memorable. Here's hoping her debut is successful enough to give her a second shot, and that she makes more of that opportunity than she's (presumably) been allowed to the first time out.
