I get a sense that artists like Joni Mitchell, Carol King, Carly Simon, even Sade are watching Alice with pride that their legacy of brilliantly talented and special singer song writers is being honored and carried on.
What planet is she from? She certainly confirms the idea that they don't make music like they used to. Nobody made music like this before. She's original and amazing.
While Alice is original and amazing, all artists and inventors build on what came before. I hear various influences in Amy's music, both solo and in Strongboi. Sade, Style Council, Flora Purim, Minnie Ripperton, America, 70's Yacht Rock, 80'a sophistipop, Amy Winehouse, Todd Rundgren, Tracey Thorn, Laura Nyro, Janet Jackson, Astrud Gilberto, etc. That said, Alice, despite her young age, seems to possess a deep understanding of 20th century music on a level that only a few artists of the past 40 years had. The only two that come to mind who had a similar level of understanding popular music history would be George Michael and Amy Winehouse.
Cute as a button AND mega-talented, deep, another artist for the ages! So blessed to find Alice Poebe Lou today! WOW! Her phrasing, jazz informed fer sure. Musicians are killer tight! So lovely! Made my day to see what is possible as the musical realms of artistry are brought forward by the next generation. Just plain WOW! Had me laughing with joy at the feeling and musicianship!
i am 4 years late, 4 years late to this absolute beauty of an album and a goddess of a voice and instrumentals oh my god i'm in love with her, with them, with all of this!!!!
So different! so new! so mysterious and surprising! So refreshing! so dreamy and full of emotion! ... I always get goosebumps! It makes me dance, sing, dream!!! ... It's wonderful!!! It's Alice Phoebe Lou!!! I would like to compare her with an angel of good, positive, creative energy sings her message to us, makes us all happy! happy, happy dancing!!!
Been watching Alice Phoebe Lou since her busking days. It's refreshing to see/hear her sing without the guitar for Paper Castles (great new song). However, the organ was irritatingly loud at times during the first two songs. I was loving those dance moves, loving that added energy from dance.
Discovered Alice and her music a week ago. I could listen to her again and again and again. A unique and beautiful spirit, and a very talented singer/song writer. This video is 17 minutes 32 seconds very well spent.
Real real sweet... such big sweet vocals from a deceptively tiny lady... I hope you guys will be coming to L.A. B4 too very long. Thanx and thanx Paste and cheers
Love her voice and paste studios musicians are great for sure. Alice should hire them for her full time band . Truly she is one of a kind . Beautiful 😍
Wow, it is just so damn good! Fabulous! The keyboard should have been turned down a bit though, but that's just buttons, knobs, and switches. The song and band are so beautiful!
Привет из дикой России. Пишу Вам потому, что вы обалденные. Группа шикарная. Девочка просто великолепна, такая милая, нежная, хрупкая и ласковая(верю, что это так). Интересно, почему все получают удовольствие кроме клавишника, он на столько напряжен, как будто от него зависит всЁ. Алиса гений, мне очень нравится. Желаю Вам популярности, ваше творчество и мелкие ругательства на столько органичны, так всё мило. Алиса так прикольно играет с микрофоном. Балуется и чудит. Такая милая. Большой респект и уважение за честность. Настоящий человек без лицемерия и лживости. Живая и настоящая. Люблю.
