#20 Lisa Stansfield

You Can’t Deny It/Lay Me Down- Lisa Stansfield
“You Can’t Deny It”- Finally, some R&B. This is a pretty song with a quick chorus. The chorus is discombobulated with overdubs and effects. In fact, there are effects everywhere on this song, and it takes away from the music. It has this soulful singer buried with artificial music. I hear the high backup singer using her nostrils to push the words into air. The flute on the chorus is feeble, to. It can be a pretty instrument, but not here.
“Lay Me Down”- There is too much echo on the voice. It sounds like a robot, not unique. “Do, down. Lay me down.” Those lyrics are not fun to sing. Again, her voice is great, but lost in the music and buried with the nostril flaring high notes.
