Weh? Borders review I missed? I think?

I found this little review while looking for something else. I've read so many reviews that the shorter ones (unless they're out-standing) kind of flow together. :-) I checked Vox Populi but didn't see it. Then again, I *really* need new glasses!

It's a good little review. It's from Borders and it seems familiar, but I'm just not sure. It's almost certainly taken from another review. Maybe someone else recognizes it...?

As the second member of N Sync (after Justin Timberlake) to release a solo album, JC Chasez doesn't play it safe. As the title implies, the music on Schizophrenic is intentionally eclectic. The sensual shuffle of "Some Girls (Dance with Women)" gets the album off to a lively start, and the acoustic funk of "She Got Me" follows, with Chasez's voice and delivery reminiscent of Jamiroquai. "All Day Long I Dream About Sex" is carried by synth and bass lines that recall New Order, and "Right Here (By Your Side)" features a gentle, tropical backdrop. What's clear in each one of Chasez's musical moves is that he's a powerful vocalist who can easily slide into any number of styles. And on "Come to Me," Chasez sings over the unmistakable main riff to Corey Hart's 1980s hit "Sunglasses at Night," an oddly appropriate nod to pop's past.

"A powerful vocalist." Yay!

I have no idea either. But who cares?! It's lovely. And either way, it's good to read. :D

It's the same as the Tower Records review. :-)

And the fact that I know that makes me very nerdy, doesn't it? eep.

LOL! Not any nerdier than me! I knew I'd seen it before, but my brain just wouldn't let me process it. Thanks. :-)
