Music reviews of Whatever It Takes
Music Review: Avoid This...Whatever It Takes
Rating: 2 Stars
I love me some Sandra Bernhard--I saw WITHOUT YOU, I'M NOTHING ten times between the live show and the film. And I'm one of the world's most devoted Chrissie Hynde fans. So imagine the shift from excitement to dread while trying to listen to this CD. Bernhard does not possess the lovliest of voices, but her confidence and physicality never fail to capture you when you see her live. She's funny, edgy and totally in command on stage. And therein is where the problem exists. Remove her stage presence and what you have left is a voice that doesn't sound all that captivating. The writing on this CD is lamentably bad. Bernhard's bits of self-indulgence on stage are funny because you know she's winking you in on the joke. Here, there's no eye contact and some of the lyrics just come off as truly Tyra Banks-ish in terms of the diva's self worth. Even Chrissie Hynde, the greatest rocker EVER, fails to ignite the proceedings and that's how the album starts! Her attempts at world music lack the conviction of the style she's emulating. It's as if all the budget went into the cover photo and all the creativity got left on the floor. Had Bernhard been allowed to interject some of her stinging comedy into the mix, this CD could have had a bit of life kicked into it. Anyone new to Bernhard's work will find this selection tedious, tired and most likely will never ever care to hear from her again. For anynoe who studies music and is "classically trained," you'll find yourself zipping through the tracks to end the nightmare quickly. Sorry Sandra, but without musicality, this is nothing....
