The Bridge October 27, 2009
Format:MP3 Download
I had been anticipating this album since the early summer release of the lead single, GIVE IT TO ME RIGHT and due to the push back of her release date (what is this the 4th?) I got scared that IDJ would do to Melanie what they did to Amerie and only release it overseas so I bought a copy from Amazon UK at a reasonable price.

It is a shame that Melanie hasn't gotten much shine on any morning shows or late night talk shows BUT what she has gotten is a chance to tour with Kanye this summer and has posted a few stunning live performance on YOU TUBE which gives listeners a chance to hear her stunning range.

The producers went for a certain throwback sound in producing this thematic album. The songs work well with her voice but my fear is that those who don't sample the tracks first may be deceived because the two singles released aren't representative of the whole album. Most of the tunes sound very much like nu-school Motown/Supremes tracks which lends cohesion but given the failure of a similarly presented album by Solange Knowles in the US, I'm not sure how well received Melanie Fiona's debut will be.

Having had the chance to listen to it a few times I think it's a good debut - it displays her vocal range and has a few memorable tracks, namely: GIVE IT TO ME RIGHT, G.A.M. (GROWN ASS MAN - only released on the import version), IT KILLS ME, BANG BANG, PRICELESS, MONDAY MORNING & YOU STOP MY HEART.

I love the hell out of this cd. Melanie has a voice out of this world and the songs were not the typical everyday songs that you hear on the radio.. It's nice to see real talent sing real songs.
This cd makes you nod your head and pat the steering wheel. Great cd!!!!!! The people who may not like are the ones who only get into "ass dropping on the dancefloor" music, or may think "Pop dat Coochie" was robbed of a Grammy. LOL.
Get real! This is real talent at its finest. "Learn it, love it, live it!"

It took me a few listens for me to get into the album. It was not something I loved on first listen. Partially due to the fact that the two leading singles are not representative of the sound of the album. Do not expect to hear a contemporary R&B album. Listening to the other tracks was reminiscent of Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black" album. However, Melanie doesn't quite master it as well as Amy was able to. Her voice is not the strongest but has to be one of the most pleasant ones currently out there today. My favorites track on the album "You Stop My Heart" meshes the backing vocals with her voice brilliantly. It's almost as though you're listening to an R&B lullaby. I believe this album has something for everyone and could be enjoyed by all ages. The Bridge has that sort of classic sound that will appeal to an older crowd, yet is still modern enough to be enjoyed by the top 40 listeners.

Just okay
I love Melanie's voice, but, the cd is just mediocre. Hoping her second cd will be better. I realize now why she didn't release more singles. :/

Some nice throw-back r&b
A comfortable and engaging voice, I enjoy Melanie Fiona's funkier jams over the slower ballads. But that's true for me as a general rule, I'm not into the slow songs. Read more

Good CD! A little heavy on sampling though!
I think this is a very solid effort for a debut. I love love love the vocal quality of her voice. Great style. Somewhat reminiscent of a retro Keysha Cole. Read more
