簡介。。。。。。
Name almost any under-recognized artist and someone will say that if he or she were only marketed correctly or heard by the right people, a star would be born. It's hard to imagine anyone making that claim about the under-recognized Lisa Germano, whose songs are so personal, ambiguous, and unsettling that even sympathetic listeners can find it hard to gain entry. Still, Slide is one of the more accessible albums in Germano's catalog, lacking both the harrowing sexual dramas of Geek the Girl and the overt self-loathing of Happiness. The songs here feature Germano's trademark carnival-music textures, but are both subtler and prettier than usual, which sometimes makes them even more disturbing: "No Color Here" and "Crash," both about depression, are so tender and closely observed they're nearly fetishistic. Elsewhere, Germano lets some air into her universe: the lilting "Electrified" remembers a time when "playing was everything," "Wood Floors" is a beautiful piano ballad, and "Turning Into Betty" is a darkly humorous song about the fear of turning into one's mother. Even Germano's lighter moments are disorienting, though; when she sings "I'm giving in to beauty," it sounds less like an epiphany than a potentially fatal error.(from AMG)

我的碎碎唸。。。。。。評價指數:8.2/10
聼這個Lisa的歌縂會讓我感覺到渾身上下暖暖的,感覺到生活還是很美好的。我這樣強烈地雙重性格的人,總是掙扎于絕望與希望之間。應該說Lisa的音樂是給我帶來希望的那一類。她總是那樣毫不費力的吟唱,因爲她天生有著一副給人溫暖與舒緩的嗓音,再加上她美麗的容貌,大概天生就注定了是一個明星。
