ready to be extraordinary

since we are in the mood to discuss music, allow me to reintroduce mandy moore to the ears of listeners everywhere.. now an extremely far cry from her days of yearning for a particular candy and asking people to walk her home, mandy has evolved into somewhat of a more matured singer, churning out folksy songs that will still no doubt cater to mainstream listeners. while it is faintly reminiscent of her last album coverage, wild hope continues to break new grounds.. joining a more indie record label has certainly got its advantages for it's not hard to realise that mandy's not only got much more freedom on this record, but she sounds really at home here as well..

while it might not be the kind of album that top charts everywhere nor will sell tons of millions, wild hope when at its best, brings warmth when listening..

great for rainy days, summer times, in fact, anytime.
