Another great album,
By Allan (Hermosa Beach, CA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Fingers & Thumbs (Audio CD)
I loved her first album, and so far this one seems about as good. She has a very distinctive voice and apparently a bit of a speech impediment, so it's kind of a love it or hate it thing. I've learned to dig it, my wife not so much. Her songs are very well crafted, intelligently covering various topics. I hope there is a third album in her future!

A Well Crafted and Moving Album !,
By Martin Chua (Singapore) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fingers & Thumbs (Audio CD)
I got to know about Polly Paulusma via her YouTube site [...]Once I heard her rendering the acoustic versions of this album, I must get it asap! There are 10 songs in this album and I really love some of her lyrics. The recording is superb and well defined. My favorites are Godgrudge, Ready or Not and All the Time. This is my album of the month, if not year 2007!

Copy & paste Review #1,
This review is from: Fingers & Thumbs (Audio CD)
The follow-up to 2004's Scissors In My Pocket, Paulusma's second long-player sees her adopt a different approach to the first, the acoustic guitar banished to a corner in favour of something a little more electric. As if to drive the point home, opener `Godgrudge' is surely her loudest offering yet; a solid body of indie-based pop building to a noisy crescendo, her folk roots almost undetectable, and just to assure us the electric approach can also be used for the tender parts too, `Where I'm Coming From' drops the tempo down almost immediately, adds an organ to the mix and throws Paulusma's voice to centre-stage for a three-beat tale of temptation.But however you dress it up, there's just not enough about Fingers & Thumbs that stands out. In making the step up/down/back/forward from acoustic to electric, it's robbed of a lot of the things which could have made it special. The tender songs aren't really that tender by the time you've added a few layers of instruments, and so the songs which began so emotional seem to have been stripped of this quality by the final cut, leaving Fingers & Thumbs falling painfully short of its true potential.
