Perhaps no female group marketed out of Nashville is as puzzling as Shedaisy, the Mormon siblings who named their trio after an American Indian word for "my sisters." Wrongfully compared to the banjo-and-fiddle-driven Dixie Chicks upon the release of their debut album, The Whole Shebang, in 1999, the Osborns emerge on this follow-up in all their full-blown poppiness, leaving not only the Chicks behind, but also such vaguely country performers as Faith Hill and Martina McBride. Far more beat-heavy and rhythm-based than the album that produced the hit "Little Good-Byes," Knock on the Sky showcases more of their impressively intricate harmony vocals and attitude ("Get Over Yourself"), the latter finding more in common with Britney Spears and her ilk than any Nashville counterparts. It says a lot that Richard Marx shares a writing credit with chief songsmith, Kristyn, on one of the album's most memorable and melodic tunes, "All Over You." But while much of the program gets the blood pumping, the majority of songs have the depth of a birdbath, and often sound constructed, not written, with a reliance on hokey sound effects such as a scanning radio dial and a not-too-credible tent-revival preacher. Granted, Shedaisy court the younger audience, but why should a teenager settle for mere grooves and harmony, no matter how skillfully it's layered? --Alanna Nash
Customer Reviews
Wonderful Music!
I have this CD. I was there when they came to BestBuy in AZ. They were nice and friendly. Even patient with my children. Then, they signed our CD and our autograph books. Shedaisy is worth promoting because not only is it great music, but good people! I urge all of you to listen to all of their music.
The best
Out of ever SHeDAISY album this is by far the greatest! I've had to get a 2nd copy because the first wore out. Kristyn is such an amazing writer and Kassidy's vocals make these songs enchanting. I highly recommend this album, it's just the greatest.
She-lipping a bit
This is another good pop/country CD from SheDaisy, but it is not as good as their first album, All Mixed Up. This album has some good tracks, but also a number of tracks that are pretty trite. Some of the uptempo tracks come off as more noisy and less smooth than was the case in All Mixed Up. Sound effects appear in some songs that kind of break those songs up, make a disconnect. So overall this album doesn't grab the listener as much as did their first album. There's still quite a bit of good ear candy throughout tho. Good tunes:
I'm Lit
Man Goin' Down
Everybody Wants You
Turn Me On
