amie mirielloAMIE MIRIELLO
I Came Around

Zomba Recording 2008

Genre
Pop rock / soft rock

The Good
Past relationship mistakes and learning from them is what the acoustic heavy "I Came Around" is about. Amie has such a sweet melody and tone to her voice. Keeping with the same theme, Amie recalls her past love affair with "Pictures." The lyrics are quite relatable since we've all looked at old pictures and remembered the good and bad of a past love. Aime decides to move on with "Band New." Sultry vocals and killer acoustic guitar picking set the tone. The chorus is quite catchy, even though it's more an anthem for women.

"Snow" is a beautiful piano ballad. "Grey" has a nice bounce and groove to it. "Beauty of Goodbye" goes back to the piano sound, but is enhanced with more emotion and instrumentation. Aime brings her vocal range up higher for "Drifter," and still nails an enchanting melody. "Hey" is simply powerful on an emotional level as Aime pours her heart out.

The Bad
Nothing

The Verdict
Sure, comparisons could be made to KT Tunstall, but Miriello leaves her in the dust. Tunstall had one good song at best, on I Came Around, Mirello has eleven solid tracks full of emotions we can all relate to on some level. Aime's upbeat tracks blend well with the heartfelt ballads, and the music is always interesting and enjoyable.
