Product description CD - Tracy Chapman: Telling Stories - 2000 - EAN 075596247825 .co.uk Telling Stories is Chapman's first album in over four years. With this collection she has gone back to the spare, unsentimental feel of her early work, recapturing some of the urgency and simple melody lines that made her 1988 self-titled debut such a classic. There's maturity here, and strong sense of spiritual metaphor. On "Unsung Psalm", for instance, she imagines her funeral, singing: "I'd have a halo and flowing white robes / If I live right", while "Wedding Song" has the devotional line: "I reach out for your hand / For you I'd don a veil". The musical arrangements, too, are pared-down, with ghostly bluegrass banjo, silvery fiddle and guitar woven into subtle drum loops. Though not as immediate as her debut, it's Chapman's most focused work in a long time. --Lucy O'Brien

upbeat tracy?
This album is good, only because it stands out from the rest of her albums, The songs are very upbeat, quick, jaunty, uplifting and pop like??? which is very strange for her, but of course with a chapman twist. I have to say I do like the vow like song of "the wedding song" its a very sincere, honest and humbling song.Where as the first song on the album "telling stories" is catchy and the chorus line will get stuck in you head!Speak the world is tracy chapman in her usual niche of trying to change the world through song. Again it is upbeat.In summary, this album stands out from the rest of tracys works which she pulls off quite well, even if it is slightly pop like! lol
