Synopsis
Amazon.com In a pop world where history is rarely acknowledged beyond whatever American Idol dishes out, Mandy Moore has discovered a stash of old records. The 19-year-old singer-actress who first appeared with 1999?s "So Real" has now decided to stretch her artistry with a dozen ?70s and ?80s touchstones. The results are mixed, but in the end Coverage is a success. Never over singing just because she can, but in proudly good voice, she brings worthy new shades to XTC?s "Senses Working Overtime," Todd Rundgren?s "Can We Still Be Friends" and Blondie?s "One Way or Another," while acknowledging the breakthroughs of Joni Mitchell, Carole King, and Carly Simon . Whether she?ll continue to follow this path is unknown, but this CD is an achievement Moore can be proud of. --Heather Court Similar CDs

CD ReviewsBien Fait Well done! Pocha Dot | Los Angeles | 08/14/2009 (4 out of 5 stars) "She does other peoples songs better than her own, She's finally found a sound that works for her. Singing other artists songs is not an easy thing. Covers usually tend to be awsome or awful, There's never seems to be any inbetween. Mandy does an amazing job on just about each song. I'm still unfamiliar with some of her song choices but they're still great. I'm so glad Mandy chose to put something like this together, excellent choice! She needed this. "Moonshadow" has to be one of the best covers i've heard by any artist in a while. More artists should do coverage records."
