REVIEW
|
One description of "Moon over Me" says that Aubrey Cummings "has taken the time to record all original songs from the Heart and Soul". It cautions the reader that "you will travel a new experience as you listen through the different tracks offering some crafty lyrics and melody along with his talented acoustic guitar touch." Indeed. The promotional clips had tantalized me and so I was excited when the CD was finally in my hand. The first few minutes changed by behavior; I could not multitask while listening to this recording. The vocal phrasings give prosaic words such new significance. Most of the verses have few rhymes and that adds to the lyrical feel of the vocal delivery. When there was silence at the end of the twelve tracks, I was mesmerized by what I had heard and the brilliance of this creation: power, resonance, touching imagery, and honesty. The poetry speaks for itself and here some excerpts: We Have It All We have a world filled with flowers We've got dreams to live, love to give It's Real, It's Life! It's real, it's life! Sitting On Top Of the World Every time you go away As I Smell The Rain As the rain pours outside Just Ordinary People You and I are cautious people But for us nothing comes easy My Heart's Not Talking to Me My head talks to me
Awestruck, I press play again, from track one, and read the credits.
On the second listen, having had my new experience, as
forewarned, I say thank you, Aubrey, for this masterpiece. |
