My Review of Dive

My Review of Dive

#1 Dive

This song has 3 lines from the book 'Whale Nation'. Very short, 53 seconds, but all of the sudden you find yourself in the next song. . . .

#2 Captain Nemo

Wow! What a great song. The words are great. This song taken (of course with permission :) ) from 20,000 leagues under the sea. A very magnificent song.

#3 The Second Element

Beautiful. Nice pop style rythym and everything in this song is just the best.

#4 Ship of Fools

This song is only 2:22, but is still enjoyable. This song has only one vocal, which is Sarah, and a guitar and a piano as the main instument along with others.

#5 Once In A Lifetime

The best song on the CD, this song has been sung by Gregorian and Enigma, but has gotten the lyrics changed for Sarah. These, though, are very punchy lyrics. But still a very enjoyable song. It is fun to see Sarah try many different styles!

#6 Cape Horn

From 'Mutiny on the Bounty', this short song just has dialogue from the movie. And like Dive, we are all the sudden in the next song. . . .

#7 A Salty Dog

A great song. This song is the 'Song that Got Away' or an 'Unsung Song'. This is a great song IMHO.

#8 Siren

A beautiful 1:12 song with one vocal by Sarah, and AGAIN we are in the next song . . .

#9 Seven Seas

Some people don't like this song for reason's I can't even fathom, but I seem to love this song. It is just so relaxing. A 10/10 song.

#10 Johnny Wanna Live

Another interesting song. This song is about how to save the animals, which they just use one word for animals 'Johnny'.

#11 By Now

Another interesting song. I don't even know what this song is about. . . is rather odd. But again, still enjoyable.

#12 Island

Like A Salty Dog, this is another song that has not been given enough credit. This song is a beautiful ballad that moves into a great chorus.

#13 When it Rains in America

Again, a song I can't understand . . . but still beautiful. I have grown to like it.

#14 La Mer (French for the Seas)

Another beautiful song. The whispering voices that Sarah does during the verse just give the chills. This also just 'floats' right into the next song. . . .

#15 The Second Element II

A reprise of the TSE I, except this song is led by a couple guitars and alot of vocals which makes it very beautiful.

Well - thanks to Lotte who reminded me about this - but here are my ratings.

Dive - 9 Captain Nemo - 10 The Second Element - 10 Ship of Fools - 10 Once in A Lifetime - 10 Cape Horn - 9 A Salty Dog - 10 Siren - 10 Seven Seas - 10 Johnny Wanna Live - 8 By Now - 7 Island - 10 When it Rains in America - 9 La Mer - 10 The Second Element II - 10

Thank you for taking the time to read this review.
