Nothing like some good ol' pop-y but sad songs to brighten up a day! Ingrid Michaelson ("The Way I Am" "You and I") came out with her album LIGHTS OUT the other week, and it's not the best thing in the world, but it's pretty nice nonetheless. It's catchy and light like the rest of Ingrid's famous songs, but there's a note of despair that rings throughout the album that differentiates this one from her last few. Albeit, it's mixed in with the usual pop-y production that seems as if she specifically made half of these songs with the radio in mind, but I guess I'm not too bothered by that since I just listened to this album all the way through three four times.
So listen and take it in for yourself. And if you don't feel like putting in the hour+ of time, listen to "Home" because it's the nice and catchy, "Open Hands" and "Ready to Lose" next because they're wonderfully sad, "Over You" because it's nice and SUPER sad, and then "Afterlife" to bounce back from the melancholy.
