4.0 out of 5 stars Good songs, great voice, ruined by safe production December 4, 2011
Format:Audio CD
I just want to say that this is an artist to look forward to. The things she can do with her voice is amazing and it looks like she got good help with song writing as well. Songs are really intricate yet still catchy at first listen. My gripe with this album is its rather mundane and safe production. It sounds like a studio CD when her more "live" vocals are far more moving. Seriously, you haven't heard her until you go and watch her Sing Sing Studio videos. Go to youtube now and watch them, it may be the same song but the presentation is vastly different. Thank me later.

Favorite so far: Settle Down, Two Way Street, Call Me, Wandering Limbs.

5.0 out of 5 stars ~Kimbra's Vows: Quirky and Beautiful~ May 22, 2012
Format:Audio CD
Like a beautiful musical sprite from another planet, Kimbra casts a spell with Vows, her debut album that is both a wonder and treasured gift. It doesn't fit in the box of any musical genre. It cleverly covers a wide range of musical styles which is a testament to Kimbra's artistry. Here are my 5 favorite songs for now:

"Something In The Way You Are" so perfectly expresses that curiosity you have that drives you to get to know someone better (or to psychotically obsess over someone). Whatever the case,

"Cameo Lover" is a fun flashback to the 60s, this sounds like a spirited hit that Phil Spector would have written.

"Good Intent" has a air of suspense to it in terms of sound. And I love how the lyrics express that good intent don't always render the best results. How true!

"Call Me" (from the deluxe version) - Growing up on a healthy diet of R&B/Funk, I naturally gravitated to this song instantly. No cryptic lyrics or deep emotional content here; just a great head-bopper.

"Sally I Can See You" - an ode to the eternal them of change. I love the chord progression throughout the song.

Vows is a remarkable debut from an intelligent, gifted artist. What an all too rare and satisfying experience it is!

4.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Singer! album does not do her justice. January 13, 2012
By BR777
Format:Audio CD
Kimbra is a true talent. Comparisons to Nina Simone, and Amy Winehouse are justified. She has real talent, and this album is great, and she is beautiful to boot, however, if you watch her "Live at Sing Sing" videos on you-tube, you will see that she cannot be contained by a conservatively produced album. She is a force to be reckoned with, is an incredible presence in her live performances, and her albums need to reflect that better otherwise she is being sold short.

Don't get me wrong, I like this album a lot, but it really only captures about %50 of what she is capable of.

She needs to establish a presence in Europe and the US, get her album available on amazon in the US as a proper, cheap album rather than an import.

I hope she gets the recognition she deserves as one of the best female singers currently producing music!
