Customer Reviews of Manmade Girl- Songs and Instrumentals
totally awesome! i luv this cd! its one of my favs! ok, i just wanted to say that this album is really, really good. i read about marianne in tiger beat (the august one, with the amazing pic of *nsync on the cover!) and had to buy her album because she looked really pretty and i think she's gonna be a really big star. britney, wathc out! hahahaha!
LOL! ok, so i really like this album. it is realyl intersting and very diffrent from what i usually listen to. its pop, but not exactly, so i like it because it stands out from the crowd. i can sing aloing to alot of the songs, but its real music and her voice is really cool. she sounds really matchure. the words are really nice and are like poems but without sounding like hallmark card junk, you know? maybe she'll tour with lifehouse or bbmak or triple deep or something because they are pop,too, and their really good but also more serious then alot of stuff on the radio. but then again she's blond, so maybe she could get with aaron carter! LOL! but he's kinda young for her and besides aaron's mine! : )
anyway, if you want a really good cd (2!) then you should really buy madnmade girl by marianne nowottny. she should definitly be really famous soon and you should get to know her so you can say you liked her before she was on trl!
Mind-blowingly fantastic; hands down the best album of 2001!
Wow! And double wow. Triple wow! Wow to the infinite power. I don't even know how to begin to praise this album. Somehow, this creative, wondrous teenage girl (the test tube baby of TORI AMOS, DIAMANDA GALAS, SUN RA, NICO,and the ladies of RASPUTINA) managed to create music that transcends categorization. From the muck of music produced (ok, usually only the lip-synching rights are credited to teen pop stars) by her "peers" (only in age, not ability or maturity) emerges this complex, dreamy, intense, and sometimes even fun record. And a double CD no less. This Marianne sure has a lot of moxie. 18 years old and a double CD as her second solo, full-length recording? Features in such diverse publications as The Wire, The New York Times, and Tiger Beat? This girl is going places.
Fortunately, as with all of Ms. Nowottny's work, she'll take you with her. And, to quote Dr. Seuss, "Oh, the places you'll go!" The first album of this 2 CD set, replete with Marianne's lush, bluesy, mature-beyond-her-years, melodic voice, starts with a somewhat catchy cut titled "Fountain of Youth," which could easily be a single for her, if the radio-listening public could stomach something so simultaneously intelligent and, well, real.
The plethora of songs on this wondrous album carry a theme of paranoia, mistrust of the artificial world that feeds upon voyeurism, technology, efficiency, machinery, and the human belief of superiority above all other creatures. Panopticon, the second (not the first, as it is listed...) track on disc one, references the architectural structure that allows a guard or central figure of authority to see without being seen, a format utilized not only in prisons, but also in hospitals and schools. This idea of constant surveillance, or at least the potential to be constantly watched, brings about political questions and deep concepts that no other young artist could even dream, much less think, to explore.
Yet, as serious as this album can be, Marianne also recognizes that her songs are meant for music lovers, not just political theorists. Her original compositions are undeniably listenable, with a range of voice and instrumental melodies, sounds, and rhythms. Some are hummable, one (Bourbon Prince) has a sample of a disco drum beat thrown in as a catchy tease, and Sweet and Low has a factory atmosphere created by a scratchy, Frankenstein-esque drill that leads me to nickname it the "Dr. Giggles" track.
As fabulous as the lyrics and vocals are on disc one, listeners, even the most skeptical, are in for a treat with the instrumental disc. Without her enthralling vocals, one is forced to focus upon her complex, unconventional compositions that prove just how much this New Jersey chick has developed as a musician since her debut album, Afraid of Me, which was recorded when she was only sixteen.
Smart, sexy, sultry, super, satisfying, sensational, surreal, splendid.....this original, genre-defying CD is certainly worth a listen, and deserves every positive S adjective you can imagine. Positively smashing.
