...according to our Dave on Thu 08 Sep, 2011.
More drama than a busload of Lionel Blairs and 15 times less annoying, the new single from the ace Anna Calvi is high on melodrama, and more sexually charged than John Terry on a weekend away with YOUR WIFE/GIRLFRIEND!! All joking aside this single is another interesting high quality song from Calvi, who must be one of the most original voices around at the moment. This song is a lament of the highest order, but with a kind of rock angle. It's direct and heavy on theatrics, but that's no bad thing. I reckon a load of bands could do wi' some of that. Any other details are sketchy but rumor has it that if you buy a copy of this single a fox will proceed to eat PJ HARVEYS FACE. An awesome single from an awesome singer.
· “‘Suzanne And I’ is an all-enveloping, sensetingling
experience. It’s a dazzling display of vocal
gymnastics, Calvi sashaying with ease from
intimate verses to hurricane-force choruses that
could square up to Piaf in the melodrama stakes” –
NME.
