Our Take

Barbra Streisand, the legendary singer and actress, has returned with her latest album "Walls." The album, much like its title suggests, builds a barrier between the listener and any semblance of enjoyable music.

Streisand, known for her powerful vocals and emotive storytelling, seems to have misplaced both on this lacklustre collection of songs. From the opening track, it's clear that Streisand is lost in a sea of forgettable melodies and insipid lyrics.

The production, handled by a team of producers who must have been on some serious sleep deprivation, lacks any spark or creativity. The generic arrangements and lifeless instrumentation only serve to highlight Streisand's diminishing vocal range.

Lyrically, Streisand attempts to tackle political and social issues, but her message comes across as empty and contrived. It's as if she Googled "current events" and decided to write a song about each topic without any real emotional connection.

"Walls" ultimately feels like a missed opportunity for Streisand to reclaim her throne as the queen of musical theatre. Instead, she settles for mediocrity and plays it safe, resulting in an album that is as unremarkable as it is disappointing.

In conclusion, Barbra Streisand's "Walls" is a forgettable addition to her extensive discography. For fans of Streisand's earlier work, this album will leave you yearning for the days when her music had passion and purpose.
