This review is from: Waiting for the Day (Audio CD)

This is an excellent album from Australian band, Bachelor Girl, consisting of Tania Doko, singer, and James Roche, writer/instrumentalist. Not only are the songs undeniably catchy and veer away from commonplace lyrics alluding to love, but, the combination of Doko's strong vocals and Roche's lyrical guitar work compliment each other greatly. This album has a strong start with "Buses and Trains," their international hit. It only gets better from there, and compliments the listener's intelligence with thought provoking verses (as opposed to insulting us, as some artists do). It's just a shame that Bachelor Girl broke up so soon. This 1998 release really stands the test of time, ten years later. Don't miss out on WAITING FOR THE DAY.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational new Australian duo, July 14, 1999

Bachelor Girl's first single Busses and Trains was a huge hit in Australia. I just assumed it was a US rock band...highly polished, huge vocals, commercial.

Waiting For The Day is laced from top to bottom with excellent songs, which have been skillfully arranged. Very Dynamic.

Waiting For The Day also features Jack Jones on Guitar. Jack is renowned as a great AUstralian rock guitarist (and singer), although fans of Jack's may be a little annoyed that guitar is not in-your-face (although there is plenty of it).

This is perhaps the most refreshing album I have heard from Australia in many years, perhaps since INXS's 'Kick' album.

The fresh sound of Bachelor Girl is supported by their thought-provoking lyrical content. Easy to listen to, this album is addictive. The artists' musical talents shine through - Tanya's powerful vocals are backed by James' tight harmonies, and their varied but consistently compelling style is mature and inspired. Well worth the money! I hope this Australian group continues to produce albums such as this.
