专辑简介

英国新晋唱作才女在今年发行了这张个人的首张唱片，可谓是备受关注，其主打单曲Pack Up首周上榜便获得了第十二名的好成绩。Eliza Doolittle在去年推出了个人的首张同名EP，在这张EP里共收录了四首歌曲，之后Eliza Doolittle边开始了到处巡回演出受到了一致的好评，虽然在英国像Eliza Doolittle这样类型的女歌手有很多，但多半音乐比较独立，积极向上的歌曲很少，而真正属于大众的音乐却很多少了，希望她的音乐能给大家带来一点不一样的感觉。

It's a minor miracle that Eliza Doolittle, the 22-year-old Camdenista, has managed to make such a coherent and effortless-sounding debut album. Although she has co-written every song, she's done so alongside 11 other writers, with additional credits going to the Fleetwoods for the sample of their 1959 song Come Softly to Me, and to George and Felix Powell for lifting their chorus to Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit-Bag. The vintage of those steals indicates the musical tone: retro-modern, a collage of familiar summery styles – a little ska here, some Cuban rhythms there – simmered into something unmistakably of this age. It's a delicious soufflé – the hooks of Moneybox, Skinny Genes, Pack Up and Missing are irresistible – that feels as light as air, melting on your tongue. Admittedly, that also means that as soon as it is over it has disappeared without a trace, but do picnic soundtracks really need to be weighed down with pretensions to significance?
