Synopsis

Album Description

Limited Edition UK-only pressing of the 2006 album from Emma Bunton (AKA Baby Spice) features three bonus tracks: 'Something Tells Me (Something's Gonna Happen', 'Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps' and Por Favour'. Life In Mono is Emma's most honest album to date, an intimate reflection of Emma's life and loves that reveal more than she was ever expecting. Musically it sounds like a rich pop album even at first listen, with rich orchestral backing, gorgeous harmonies and the sort of chorus' Burt Bacharach could be proud of. It moves from the stunningly tender 'All I Need To Know' to cheeky jazz of 'Undressing You' and the luscious Carpenters style of 'I'm Not Crying Over Yesterday's' . Above all it captures Emma's thoroughly modern take on elegant 60's Pop. Universal.

CD Reviews

Wonderful follow-up to Free Me

Tuff munchies | Baltimore, MD United States | 12/12/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you appreciate sophisticated smartly arranged pop songs with catchy melodies then you should give this CD a try. It's a breath of fresh air in today's melodically-challenged musical landscape. Honestly, this CD has more hooks than Opie's tackle-box. Maybe that's why, like Emma's last CD 'Free Me', I listen to it day after day, which is something I very rarely do with new CDs I buy. She sings in a very pleasant Olivia Newton John-ish voice that straightforwardly accentuates the song's strengths and she doesn't sound much like any of the current slate of new millenium starlets out there . It's strange to me that such wonderful CDs could be made a former Spice Girl, a group I never had much use for, but there it is. I think this CD proves that 'Free Me' was no fluke, and I look forward to seeing where Emma Bunton goes from here."

WOW, This album is FAB baby.

"I left this review for a few days so I could give it few listening.

Free Me was a really great album, which I did not buy until March this year.

When I first listen to it I was blown away, I just did not expect this from Emma.

Now over to Life In Mono, First listening It did not seem as good as Free Me.

But its a grower Emma has a sweet singing voice, which is pleasant to listen to. All the songs are good, still having the 60s bossa nova sound to most of them. Best tracks are. Life In Mono, Mischievous, He Loves Me Not, I Wasn't Looking, Take Me To Another Town, I'm Not Crying Over Yesterdays, All That You'll Be, and Something Tells Me.

All in all this is a solid album, and is as good as Free Me if not better.

well done Emma for a third fantastic album, and the best so far.

Rating Six stars, yes it really is that good."
