5.0 out of 5 stars Instant Classic, March 22, 2008

I don't know who this girl is but she is obviously a pop genius. I fell in love with her the first time I heard her sing. There are so many hits on this CD, I wouldn;t be surprised if Norah Jones or Alicia Keys did covers just to spruce up their career. "Never Been Hurt" is going to be played at every prom this spring. It's the soundtrack to every John Hughes film never made. I hope she goes on tour. I am dying to hear her in person. I just wish song two were written about me, and "Don't You Want to Know What it WOuld be Like?" YES! YES! YES!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful music from a beautiful mind, July 5, 2008

I first heard Sara Melson singing "Feel it Coming" on Youtube, and right away I wanted to hear more from her, so I bought the album "Dirty Mind." The first time you hear Sara Melson singing, depending on which song you're listening too, you might hear hints of Nora Jones, Mazzy Star, or even Kim Carnes. But after you listen to more of her music, you realize that she is that rare breed, an original singer. Sara Melson is incredibly special, with a lovely voice like no one else.
The songs on Sara's "Dirty Mind" album are rich in depth - warm, sometimes powerful, sometimes playful, always tender. The lyrics are pure poetry, and it doesn't take long to realize that this music comes from a beautiful mind. From the playful "Anywhere and Anytime" to the hauntingly beautiful "Happy Endings," this is a great album.
I think women will love this album because the songs are straight from the heart of a woman, nothing hidden, everything bared, and they will relate to it. Men, like myself, will hear the tenderness of a woman, in poetry, in song. It will surely scare us, it did me....but we will know the inside of a woman like we've never known it before. That is the power of Sara Melson's music, and it is an incredibly beautiful thing to hear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, April 6, 2008

Every song on this record is strong, and the playing and singing is gorgeous. I heard the amazing "Feel It Coming" on Grey's Anatomy. In fact, there's not one filler track on here. After only one listen, I found myself singing the songs over and over again in my head at random times throughout the day. "Never Been Hurt" is one of the most arresting and soothing songs I've ever heard, in a very real way. There's nothing fake or contrived about this artist, which in today's music world is so refreshing (and rare). I get the feeling that despite the saucy title, this girl has some very enlightened spiritual stuff to share with the world. This record will inspire you. Get it.
