4.0 out of 5 stars Impossible to fault, May 28, 2007

By

I really thought Aussie singer/songwriter Missy Higgins might have a struggle on her hands to better her excellent 2004 debut The Sound Of White. But with her second release, On A Clear Night, she may well have done just that. Her latest batch of songs are, in a word - gorgeous, and their appeal grows with each listen. Opener 'Where I Stood' is an immediate highlight, a song which shivers with emotion, pulling the listener in with a trademark Higgin's tail of lost love/lost identity over a beguiling, yearning melody. Other standouts are the single 'Steer', the breathlessly beautiful 'Warm Whispers' and the 'The Wrong Girl' which seems to have set up permanent residence in my brain - not that I mind one bit. I've only been in possession of On A Clear Night for a couple of weeks, but I sense already, that I'm gonna keep coming back to this album time and time again. Missy Higgins has again shown us just what a genuine talent she is - one of the most gifted and luminescent singer/songwriters to have graced the scene in some time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Young Talent, November 17, 2008

I don't usually go out and rave about younger singers since I'm more in the anne murray, bruce cockburn, emmylou harris, bob dylan, joni mitchell generation.

But I have to tell you, Missy has got it head and shoulders over any younger singer today. What will she thrill us with when she starts writing more and more, and rips our hearts out with another whole album of "Where I Stoods"?

If I could give this CD six stars I would. This is worth the investment, and since you can download her MP3's, I recommend this album first. Wow!

Missy is one of the most talented singer/songwriters around today. Her voice is mellow and sexy and powerful at the same time. Her lyrics are moving and poetic, full of emotion. If you don't have this CD, get it.
