Our Take

Melanie Borders' latest album, "Ballads," is a rollercoaster ride of emotions, from heart-wrenching to downright hilarious. The British songstress showcases her vocal prowess throughout, effortlessly shifting from soulful crooning to powerful belting. The opening track, "Tears in the Rain," sets the tone for the album with its haunting melody and introspective lyrics. Borders' voice soars over the melancholic piano chords, painting a vivid picture of heartbreak and longing. It's a captivating start to an album that doesn't shy away from raw emotion. On the more upbeat side, "Dance Floor Diva" is a cheeky homage to '80s disco, complete with funky basslines and infectious hooks. Borders' playful delivery and catchy chorus make this track impossible to resist – you'll find yourself grooving along in no time. But it's not all fun and games. Tracks like "Empty Promises" and "Broken Dreams" delve into darker territory, exploring themes of betrayal and lost love. Borders' emotive vocals shine on these stripped-back ballads, showcasing her range and depth as an artist. Overall, "Ballads" is a triumph for Melanie Borders, showcasing her versatility and songwriting prowess. It's a must-listen for anyone looking for an album that will make you laugh, cry, and dance all in one sitting. Don't sleep on this one – it's a gem in the sea of generic pop music.
