It might be her soothing voice and the simple yet beautiful melody, or maybe it’s the French name… but there must be something that makes Madeleine Peyroux worth listening to. Jazz certainly isn’t the type of music I picture myself listening to, but the album captures a certain relaxing yet nostalgic atmosphere, but also a degree of modernity that transcends any genre.
Simply put, or perhaps ordinarily put (not to mention cheesy), the album is like a quiet, sunny, misty morning with your loved one, plus a cozy cup of coffee — and I don’t even drink coffee.
Possible best tracks? River of Tears, Instead, To Love You All Over Again, and I Must Be Saved.
