A brilliant singer-songwriter,

Ce commentaire fait référence à cette édition : Greastest Hits (CD)
Beth has established herself as one of Nashville's most prolific and successful songwriters (and for that reason she is sometimes classified inaccurately as a country singer), yet her own music owes more to folk, jazz and pop than it does to country music, even though Rodney Crowell and Jim Ed Norman (two noted country record producers) separately produced most of the tracks here. Beth's music has more in common with Joni Mitchell and Shawn Colvin than it does with Faith Hill, Kathy Mattea, Trisha Yearwood, Lorrie Morgan and other country singers who have recorded so many of her songs. As a country songwriter, Beth scored her first number hit with Strong enough to bend (recorded by Tanya Tucker) but, where this compilation is concerned, country fans will immediately recognize Happy girl (a country number one for Martina McBride). I'm sure that country singers have recorded some of the other songs here but none of them are as well known as Happy girl. Eventually, Beth's success as a songwriter spread beyond country music with pop, rock and folk singers recording her songs.So this is really a collection of quality easy-listening music with other influences, especially folk. Beth has an outstanding, clear voice that makes one wonder why she has had only limited success as a singer, especially given her success as a songwriter. Actually, it seems that Beth chooses to record what she feels like without worrying about its commercial potential, relying on the royalties from her songwriting to provide her main income. Death is a recurring theme in several of Beth's songs, but Beth likes to downplay it somewhat, trying to be positive (though the sadness and pain is obvious) and never actually using the d word. Maybe this is Beth's way of coming to terms with bereavement - she lost her husband to cancer in the mid-nineties. The opening track (Beyond the blue) is an ode to somebody (her husband?) who has already gone to heaven and who Beth looks forward to joining one day. The title track to one of Beth's albums (Sand and water) declares that we are all alive temporarily - actually, that album is the source for many of the tracks here. In another song (The color of roses), Beth dreams that a deceased person is still alive and says that the human spirit can overcome reality. Beth sings about survival (Life holds on), describing near-death situations. Beth also looks on the bright side when singing about life, whatever the subject. Beth sings about her current partner (All I have, When I feel this way, I keep coming back to you, Say goodnight), a former partner with whom reconciliation is impossible, but a smile will do (Walk my may), a life-long friend who she rarely meets because they now live far apart (Emily) and returning to her parents for Christmas (Years). Beth is clearly somebody who has experienced the best and worst that life has to offer, but who also has the ability to pass on those experiences in song. While she is normally happy to let others record her songs, this collection shows that Beth is a brilliant singer who is perfectly capable of recording her own material.
