Music reviews of Soraya
Music Review: Soraya...
Rating: 5 Stars
Wow, what can I say? Soraya never fails to satisfy her fans. Here we have the final result of her newest and most intimate cd to date. For those that are not aware--or are new fans--Soraya was diagnosed with breast cancer over two years ago, right after releasing "Cuerpo Y Alma." She had to cut her promotion short, since it was up to her to avoid sharing the same fate as her mom--for whom she wrote the song "En Esta Noche"--aunt, and grandmother. Finally, after a successful recovery Soraya is back and full of energy using her first single "Casi" to prove it. "Solo Por Ti," "Espejo," and "A Tu Lado" also lets us know that Soraya was facing a tough time, and as a result, these songs make up the best of this heartfelt cd.I can't describe nor praise enough Soraya's talent, she always seems to outdo herself with every new cd or at least equals her previous work. In "Soraya" we hear a new side to her musical evolution, and a country beat seems to work well with the theme and mood of this cd--overcoming, surviving, but most of all empowering and succeeding after facing such a life threatening ordeal.
This cd is definately for music fans that can appreciate lyrics that make sense, but most of all it is for people who seek artists--true artists--that offer genuine music and feelings with every work they do.
No disposable junk music here. Too bad most mainstream artists can't deliver such great cds.
If you like this cd I highly recommend obtaining Soraya's other work; "En Esta Noche," "Torre De Marfil," and "Cuerpo Y Alma" for more soul-touching music.
Description of Soraya
With themes that run from regrets and self-doubts to ambition and faith, Colombian singer/songwriter Soraya examines the possibilities in romantic adventures. On the upbeat rocker "Casi," she describes the struggle to get back on her feet after a disastrous turn. "Lie for You" takes the perspective of putting on a brave face outwardly while crumbling inside. But there's also hope and healing. In the acoustic and haunting ballad "Solo por Ti," Soraya portrays that falling-in-love moment of happiness with the affecting lyrics "la union de la esperanza y todos mi desos (the union of hope and my desires)." The inspiring and anthemic "A Tu Lado," catalogues the boundless limits of devotion. Soraya's expressive, sometimes half-spoken vocals run the range between Tori Amos' soft whispers and Dolores O'Riordan's yodeling wails. Musically, her pop/rock melodies are tinged by folk and country and recall early Suzanne Vega. Ultimately, Soraya's songs about surviving life's dark turns is especially poignant and relevant considering she's a breast cancer survivor, and an advocate for awareness. --Ramiro BurrFolk CDs
