Album Description
Amazing though it is, the story of how Melody Gardot overcame the effects of a near-fatal accident to become one of the vocal sensations of 2008 is not the most extraordinary thing about the 23-year-old Philadelphia singer-songwriter. It is simply that here is a voice in a million; one that touches the soul. Melody's debut album `Worrisome Heart' introduced, in The Sunday Times' words: "a remarkable talent by any measure", with songs of quiet, wistful poetry in arrangements that "ooze after-hours sophistication". Yet the follow-up, for release in April 2009, marks a substantial leap forward. `My One And Only Thrill' is an intensely creative milestone, transcending genre distinctions of jazz and blues to offer a haunting personal musical statement that will appeal to all music-lovers. As with her acclaimed live shows she captures and holds her audience in the palm of her hand. These eleven songs, covering a wide range of emotions, are all her own except for an irresistible, Brazilian take on Somewhere Over The Rainbow. It would take a heart of stone to remain unmoved by the poignant title track My One And Only Thrill. And when the album is finished (as Irving Berlin wrote truly) the song is over, but the Melody lingers on . . .

 Just OK.. March 13, 2010
Josh Nguyen (California, CA USA)
I was a little disappointed with this lp. I was expecting something like "worrisome heart". My favorite is still "Some Lessons , the Bedroom Sessions" from Melody.
 Mature, beautiful, relatable... March 12, 2010
Jem (Riverside County, CA USA)
Mature, beautiful, relatable, etc. I can not really find the words to explain just how truly lovely I think this young artist and her music is. I purchased this CD back in November. I had not heard of her but thought that the samples on Amazon were nice. I was pleasantly surprised. I then went back online to read her short bio. and was even more impressed to learn that even after her tragic accident, she has held her head high and was still able to do what she loved to do - make music and sing. I listen to this CD everyday - on my way to work, on my way home, around the house doing chores, etc. I even got my husband listening to it from time to time. I have purchased her "Worrisome" CD as well, however, "My One and Only Thrill" is my personal favorite. Can't wait til her next album. I would recommend this CD to anyone. You will not be disappointed.

This CD is absolutely wonderful - could not be happier with our selection. It was in brand new condition and arrived right on time. We listen to it often and enjoy it more each time.
