Thoughts about The Thing About You

The Thing About You is Chloë's first all-out pop album. It's a very different sound from her previous albums, but in this transition she sacrificed none of her trademarks. At the heart of the music are still her tremendous passion and her beautiful voice.

Besides Chloë's beautiful vocals, the album does share some other similarties to her previous albums, particularly, the outstanding piano accompaniment for Say It Anyway and Viva la Vida.

The songs on the EP differ not only from her previous work, but from each other. There's quite a bit of contrast between the tracks. There are some fun, catchy, head-bobbers and some slower songs that tug at the heartstrings.

The song selections and Joshua Spacht's strong arrangements are well-suited to her voice. She gets to express a wide variety of emotions with her gorgeous voice and gets to show off both her range and power. Every song on the EP has something special to offer.

Like An Angel and Across the Raging Sea are not on the album. Those are Joshua Spacht's songs. He previously released them with other singers. Chloë re-recorded the songs with Spacht. They're fantastic, but they're not her songs. Viva la Vida is also a cover, but as a very popular song, it has the potential to draw in fans from outside her existing fan base.

I'd say any of these songs have the potential to go mainstream. Then again, so did Like An Angel. The songs and the singer are certainly good enough, but whether or not a mainstream audience would embrace them, I suppose only time will tell.

After she left Celtic Woman, Chloë spent a lot of time trying to re-discover herself. I think it's safe to say she found what she was searching for. She is perfect for these songs. I am so proud of her for having the courage and patience to see this through and I feel so lucky to know such a wonderful performer.

Is this an original song or a cover? I'm just wondering...

The Thing About You is an original song.

They're all original songs except for Viva La Vida.
