    Album Description
    Taken from the 2003 album 'Call Off The Search'. The title track is backed with 'Downstairs To The Sun' & 'Thank You, Stars'. Melua's laid-back bluesy pop has been compared to Norah Jones & Eva Cassidy. Dramatic.

    The Debut Single from the Arresting Young Singer from the UK Whose Distinctive Style Has Turned Heads around the World. Her Debut Album "Call off the Search" Has Been Vigorously Praised by Critics and Music Fans Alike. Includes the LP Track "Faraway Voice".

    If you like The Closest Thing to Crazy, (...) this one of the best cd's of the year in my opinion. If you like Norah Jones, you will for sure like this one and I reckon you will never take it off your CD player!


    5 out of 5 stars Jazzy Irish-American Lass punchs way above her age!   December 9, 2003

    I dont normally review, I just ain't that kind of guy, I pay my taxes, go to work, buy a CD and chill.. .anything else is just a hassle! So why write a review? Because in short this album just demands attention in oh so many wonderful ways....

    Take a much travelled teenager, give her Norah Jones-eque vocals with a splash of showtime and blues and you have something that really snarls, mellows and gracefully takes you along a wonderful journey!

    Standout trackes like the gliding jazz laden "The closest thing to Crazy", the lead single I believe stand testimony that even a lazy-ass kind of guy like me can be stirred into doing his first review..!

    Buy now folks and relax, Katie has you in safe hands.

    Listners will be more impressed to know that Katie is not Irish American... but in fact Georgian born ( as in former soviet republic) and Irish raised... Can't go wrong with a voice born from this beautiful country known for the gift of song and paired up with a Irish mentor of style combination.... truly gifted!


    5 out of 5 stars very good!   May 2, 2004

    Amazing CD, considering she wrote most of her own material and she's so young!

    Definitely on my heavy rotation.
