In a long past, Alison Moyet was the singer of the duo Yazoo. Her subsequent solo career yielded her big hits like Love Resurrection, All Cried Out and That Ole Devil Called Love. After a period of silence in the nineties, the album Hometime (2002) marked a glorious comeback for the English singer and composer. Moyet promptly landed in the Top 5 Best Selling English Female Artists and she was
… nominated for Best Female Vocal at the 2003 BRIT Awards. Typical for Moyet is that she does not stick to successful formulas but is constantly looking for new challenges. Her album Voice therefore differs from Hometime as day and night. On Voice, Moyet's sensual, bluesy voice is accompanied by… a classical orchestra! Together with producer and arranger Anne Dudley, Moyet chose various covers from the worlds of classical, jazz, folk and French chanson. Highlights include Moyet's renditions of Elvis Costello's Almost Blue and God Give Me Strength. (SvdP)more
