What people say about usRead what people have to say about Burnshee Thornside. The quotes are picked from mails to us.----------------------- "Your album has been on a loop in my car. You know I grew up in Maryland,home of Little Feet, and listening to Robert Palmer, Boz Scaggs so this is very, very familiar territory.Happy and familiar." VS" I was trawling through get me music for music to listen to and came upon your music I like it and its cool and I am going to buy it fairly soon. Its on my wish list. I have been to your website and discovered you record your music yourself that is also great too. You are making a great job of the recording it sounds crispine clear and neat and tidy for a home recording very proffessionally done." Ade "Hi, My name is Jimmy Young I am an R&B/Soul artist at Get Me Music.com and I was listening to your stuff and I want to tell you that you guys sound great... Congratulations, and I hope to meet you all in the future whenever I tour europe... cheers." "Your music is great. Reminds me a lot of Michael McDonald or even Steely Dan. I have not purchased much downloaded music nor have I found much that is appealing for me to buy. Your group was definately an exception.Thanks" Jonathan Your albums have earned a permanent place on my playlist. When do you plan to release the third album? (I'll be waiting in line at Magnatune :) K.K. "Oh, it's likeLevel 42, and a bit of The Meters, and then I like the lyrics a lot. Can I be a Star? is really fun. And Lamborghino has a nice beat. Actually, it's really really great! Good Luck!" "I loke "Doodelido", funky groove with a very nice vibraphone-solo. But the best one is "Consuelo", great guitar playing and great arrangement. Smart lyrics as well." J.K. "What makes it for me are the lyrics, even though you obviously are very competent in your field of old school retro RnB soul Funk and Jazz, and blues, and pop... :-)" Mike "It's such diversity, first I felt it was too much, but then It was more like 'Oh, another surprise", which was nice. Why should an album be tied to the same style anyway? Keep your style BT!, diversity in jazz, funk, soul and blues, with that swedish pop-touch, and the Zappa lyrics! Great!" Jude I like the lyrics of this particular music and yes the horns are very brilliant. For me its the lyrics that does it. It reminds me of Michael Franks. You guys are really good with your lyrics and the delivery of the lyrics. It sounds like Mike Franks in style and delivery, so be ready to face the critics on this one accusing you of trying to copy him. Ade It’s soo Steely Dan, and Sade, but better. Sho D. I love the record! (Rock This Moon). Have you guys ever heard of a group called Steely Dan? They must have been listening to you a lot :-) Let me know if you have any gigs. I’ll be there! J. E. ...listening to both of oyur CDs at the moment .. daily .. VERY cooL!!! .. both!!! Lord Litter "Blues and misc." a very nice album totally and completely different from the Rock the moon and the art of not blending in. I like the lyrics of some of the songs. I cant remember the titles. The one that I love the most in terms of lyrics was a song about someone thornside sang about who couldn't dance and for this reason hes not in love with her and another one about a woman who is so high to maintain. Thornside has a very clear voice. I think the best album you have done so far is Rock the moon, perhaps because I am more into slow jams and ballads so this could be a biased and not so objective view." Ade (again) Give me the rack! Flog me!! Burn, kick and punch me!! Anything!! But please don’t make me listen to Burnshee Thornside!! Imagine Weird Al doing Steely Dan covers or maybe your drunk aunt singing some Steely Dan karaoke. Don’t get me wrong the musicians are first rate but the lyrics are lame and HORRIBLE and the vox are HORRIBLE and lame just like my spelling and grammar. Keep away from children. earcandymag |
