5.0 out of 5 stars Great Album, May 7, 2002

Wow, I was so impressed to hear this album. When I first heard it I was hooked from song one. Under the water just made me feel great when I heard it. This artist should be more appreciated. I hope other buyers will recommend her!

A great debut album from Australian singer/composer Merril Bainbridge. It's an enjoyable listen...her voice is sweet without being too sugary like Donna Lewis. I don't know why she hasn't released a new album lately, not since "Between the days" from 1998...hopefully though she will soon. I think most people will be familiar with the hit song "Mouth" which got a lot of airtime, but as others have stated here, its not really the best song on this album. There is definately a lot to enjoy here, and I can't name one song that I don't like. The 12 page booklet includes all lyrics.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb album that ages well., April 9, 1999

This album is getting on a bit now, but it's still every inch the essential purchase. The songs range from the dynamic Sleeping Dogs to the serene Power of One, but the whole doesn't feel disjointed. In a world of plastic identikit pop music it's wonderful to find an album which while it follows the same rules as everyone else, manages to do it so much better.

And like a fine wine it just gets better with age!
